Have yet to find a philosophical somewhere I am content to call home. The closest I get to a creed these days is a quote by John Green. "Whether I believe in God isn’t really relevant. I do believe however tenuously in Mercy" Due to a lot of personal reasons encountered along this journey, I have mostly stepped away from writing for now. Still, sometimes something stirs me and I need space to hash out my thoughts. So welcome to my little space along the journey.

The Sick Files - Specimen 2
Our new specimen is currently in hours 49-72 in our observation period. She has great back pain, is throwing up, and generally just VERY VERY ILL. The specimen shows only slight signs of improvement so far. However her able medical staff has prescribed drugs and we expect the specimen to begin improvement any time now.

Ella and I had dinner at Camilles Cafe in Geneva Commons and had their Wonderful Creamy Tomato soup. I met the owners and they were very nice people. We took some of the soup home to Christi, who threw it back up ( a sign she has not improved much in three days. So at this point I am assuming I will be ringing in the new year with myself and channel 9.
My plans for this evening are to finally write the family Christmas letter and I am also intending to do a post tonight on Deut 29 and 30. I do not know if I will get to it. If not expect to see it in a few days.

Daughter: In Bed for Evening
Kevin: Watching a special on the "science of Joseph"
I have played single dad tonight since Christi is in bed with the flu. She got it at my parents from my brother. She threw up last night on our way home from my parents, she has been in bed ALL Day, the Robinsons were able to keep Ella today and our youth minister's wife is going to keep her tommorow. I hope Chris is feeling better by Wednesday, as I do not yet have a person for the watching on Wednesday.
Anyway, please pray for us that Christi will get to feeling better, and that the new baby will be safe while she is sick.

Lex Rex - Law is King - Republic
Populus Rex-The People is King - Democarcy a.k.a. Mob Rub
In the summer of 1776 the forefathers of our fine nation sat down and drafted a document that would forever separate us from the monarchist rule of England. In place of England's monarchy our forefathers established a constitutional Republic based on the rule of law as king. This rule of law in recent Time has been subverted by those would like to pass off our nation as a democracy: where they seek to further their own agenda by the power of mob rule, and can do so without the stress of procedures rules and laws. The most obvious flaw in democracy is that it is a detestable subversion to God's role and ordinance for government. Those who find themselves seduced by the allure of democracy in government often find themselves in rebellion to God's own laws which are unwavering in response to the opinion of the world. It is our responsibility to be lovers of God's word endive flaw. It is our responsibility to attempt to follow it to not alter it but to be altered by it. Let us never forget that the church is not a democracy, it is a Theocratic Republic.

We ate supper at noodles and company Christi had the pasta Fresca. I had the Japanese pan noodles with rice noodles rather than pan noodles. Ella had the Wisconsin mac and cheese. Which she ordered herself from the lady at the register. Ella was quite disappointed when her mommy was not at the restaurant, she did not understand we were taking the food home.
All in all our visit to Abercrombie and Fitch to get Randall's Christmas present (just kidding) was a great success and much fun was had by myself and the Boo.
