DairyKing's Journal, 19 Oct 20

Good Morning, FatSecret Warriors! Well, I’ve been a bad boy over the weekend. Perhaps anxiety made me do it. :) My diet kind of went south. Friday, I did not want to eat breakfast or lunch before traveling to the interview, and by the time supper rolled around, I was starving. Then they rolled in Avanti’s spaghetti and sub sandwiches. I ate like I was starving. That set the tone for the rest of the weekend’s seminar. Anyway, I was confirmed and unanimously recommended for ordination at the next District Assembly by the District Board of Elders. The District Assembly usually happens around May, but due to the pandemic was not held this year. Perhaps it will be held this coming May and I will get ordained with the ones who were approved last year. It’s a pretty big deal in the Nazarene denomination and they like to ordain elders (Preachers) when the whole District is present, and the service is facilitated by one of the General Superintendents of the denomination. But it’s great to know that I have the confidence of the District now. Well, that’s probably more than you ever wanted to know about Nazarene credentials. Back to the eating plan, but probably not seriously until tomorrow. :)

Congratulations on your confirmation!! Awesome accomplishment. Stress eating is a thing. Plus you made your body wait for food. Perfect storm for a refill. You can undo after you get back home into the swing of your normal life. You got this!!

Hey DK! I have looked for you many times on here. SO very glad to see you back. I always enjoyed reading your posts. FS has definitely changed a lot over recent years--the format and function, the people, and the focus of the posts. All very different. Several of we old-timers are still hanging around, working on our journeys. It's a long road for sure! Glad to see you have your pastor's position. Last time I saw your posts, you were just finishing up some of your classes and doing music sessions with the church folk. Looking forward to following along with you!!

Haha, yes it has, Kattay! I’ve been buried in work trying to keep things going with the kids at the church during this pandemic. Online streaming and having the kids gather to make videos for songs (while keeping social distancing) has been fun but quite the challenge. But these videos are like a PiYo workout; and I’m 70 years old. So, I do not get to be a couch potato just yet. Plus I think I’m a stress eater. Don’t count me out yet; now I have to make more than one kind of lifestyle change - trying also to balance personal/work life. Thanks for checking up on me.

Very happy to see a post from you and to know you are okay. This quarantine is not fun but at least I get to see some of my family. You certainly are keeping busy. I do enjoy chatting with my FS friends too. Take care and hope to see some posting soon from you..
