Hump day's hump day

Today is now known to me as hump day's hump day. Today is the day that is the hump between hump day and Friday. Today I have so much on my plate and so little time to get it done so I started earlier than usual.
Yesterday was to be my day. I had my sermon finished up on Monday evening so I was going to read over it and find some cool illustrations to go with it and type it up. I had 4 hours of overtime and BGH doesn't pay overtime so I was going to get up and start moving at my leisure. I did it, I typed out my blogs on the couch, read the newspaper online and then worked out. After everyone had left the for school I was going to get started on my sermon in teh peace and quiet of an empty house. Not so fast says life!
Last Wednesday night we arrived to a flooded youth house, the hot water heater tank had started leaking and water was everywhere. The leak was about half way downt he side so it kept on filling itself up while dumping it out the side. We had to shut the power and the water off during youth which was not a great experience, but not too bad. Long story short, I got a call that the plumber could come and help me put a new heater in and get everything fixed early yesterday morning. So I rushed out to the church and played plumber on my 4 hour break.
We had youth last night after I had cleaned and set it all back up and we had a good crowd, we filled up all the seats that we had set out and we were missing about 6 of our regulars so we had several visitors. We talked about forgiveness and how Jesus taught it. It all went well, we got on the van and I started taking everyone home. Believe it or not I was actually home by 9pm last night and did not know what to do with myself.
I got robbed of my morning but got it back in teh form of an early evening with the family.
Tonight I am feeding the JV football team and doing the BIble study for them, followed by running up to Ponte Vedra to help out at the freshman game. So busy, busy, busy and loving it.
Have a great day!
