well here we go again.
another snow day.
and....i feel like i get one too!
snow day on a wednesday means: no 7 am youth group breakfast, evening bible study, evening youth group. ahhhh... how sweet it is. (it must be noted that i do in fact love all of the above, however a free day from them is really nice)
the weather: cold. bright sun. extra bright today given the white snow.
the plan: having slept till 8am, continue to clean out the "paper" that has overcome my table and desks. the secretary in the living room is done, and the desk is next. next project: get the chevy suburban out and make my 'free lunch' meeting at the local chemical plant (citizens advisory committee). this afternoon will bring 'snow day visits' which are always more fun.
happy hour? well you better believe it. (it must be noted that i am not an alcoholic, however this snow has brought the grand opportunity for some social drinking)
as the song says: "oh the weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, and since we no place to go,.....let it snow, let it snow, let is snow!"

the text behind the blog title...
The Amalekites came and attacked the Israelites at Rephidim. Moses said to Joshua, "Choose some of our men and go out to fight the Amalekites. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with the staff of God in my hands." So Joshua fought the Amalekites as Moses had ordered, and Moses, Aaron and Hur went to the top of the hill. As long as Moses held up his hands, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning. When Moses' hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held his hands up—one on one side, one on the other—so that his hands remained steady till sunset. So Joshua overcame the Amalekite army with the sword.
--Exodus 17:8-16
