Lots of Randomness
First, a couple of worthy links. A friend told me about this cool music site where you can type in an artist or a song, and then the website will play songs with similar musical characteristics. Then, there is also a great song that Mow sent me a link to after my first Christmas song post.
Pandora
Mow's Christmas recommendation
In other good news, I had an e-mail in my inbox at work this morning saying that the legal department wanted to interview me about a possible patent filing. This is by no means a guarantee of a patent, but it's kind of exciting anyway just to think of the possibility. So, this got me to thinking about how I would say my life is going well right now. Promotion a couple months ago, now this possible patent thing, a great Christmas and New Years, no broken bones snowboarding, etc. Sometimes when things are like this it makes me wonder what's up ahead - will there be some really hard times in the future that will be just as hard as these days are good? Is there something coming down the road that will completely shake up my world? I'm reminded of something I heard two Sunday mornings ago: "We need to build in times of peace." I guess for now I will enjoy the goodness and be very thankful while I can be. I better get to that building while I can.

Exciting about the patent possibility! I often think the same thing when things are going well...when's the rug going to be pulled out from under me?! That's a great thought that was shared in your mtg...it's too easy to just take it easy and let things slide and get caught up in all the natural goodness. Good to be reminded that what's here is just temporary.
I can tell you it happens at the time you expect it the least I guess... That's how it was for me a little bit, but don't worry, life goes on... it's been almost a year and I'm still moving along, I might not be where I was financially a year ago obviously but somehow we're making it work! Oh congratulations on the patent... now I know a real life inventor! :-P
