Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone
The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.
Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!
How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

From The Corner Of My Mind
* Blogging from the waiting room of the hospital.
* Our son is scheduled for surgery on his broken leg early this mornIng.
* We traveled north to Witchita Falls last night to watch the game. A Thursday night edition played due to scheduling conflicts with their stadium. There are 4 teams that use the stadium in WF. I don't know why we couldn't have played it here. UIL rules I assume? Do you have to have so many games at home and so many away?
* There was a commenter on my blog and on LL blog that made a few predictions (most likely a Bulls fan) about Decatur not being able to play against Gainsville or Witchita Herschi. I admit I was wondering myself about Gainsville, they usually come prepared to win. Against both teams, Decatur came better prepared, had more will to win and played better as a team. Their team play this year is outstanding. So far this year, it has never been about "me me me", it has only been about the team.
* It was a huge 52-16 win. It was 52-6 up until 2 minutes left in the game.
* Decatur played without Coach Story at the helm last night. He was at Dallas Presb. hospital with his son who is still in ICU suffering from complications of a blood clot in his leg from the injury in last Friday nights game.
* I hope he was getting play by play from some sort of media.
* There is a case before us this morning, so he won't start our case till at least 9am.
* More later, see ya Around The Corner!
* EDIT: Went back to the OR at approximately 9:35am. The waiting begins, should be about two hours till we can see him again.

saying some prayers for surgery... good outcome, peace of mind for you and w-spouse...
as for home and away games, it's generally decided between the coaches... if you play a team home this year, normally you play them away the next year... and preseason games are usually set up on a 3 or 4 year contract basis...
but if for some reason there are conflicts in schedules or some other aspect, the coaches can decide to change the day, time, and location of a game... but it has to be agreed upon by both sides....
around here we have 3 stadiums for 11 high schools... we end up with 2 or 3 Thursday night varsity games in a season... and JV/Freshman play the night before varsity... so the football week is normally Thurs/Fri but sometimes it ends up being Wed/Thurs... sort of sucks because there is nothing quite like FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS!
Sending prayers and good thoughts for a successful surgery for your boy. Prayers also going out to the other players hurt. Poor kids
:-( The idea of a blood clot is terrifying. Bless them all.
Praying the surgery goes well.
Hope suurgery goes well, in my thoughts and prayers as well as the other teenager.
I'm keeping Cole in my thoughts & prayers this morning. Looking forward to report after the surgery. Mo
Prayers for Cole & Tyler today...
HOPING FOR A GOOD OUTCOME ON THE SURGERY AND A QUICK RECOVERY...KEEP US POSTED TODAY.
