What's Goin On

Here are a few random updates on some things I've written about recently and what's next...

I just finished negotiations with my wife on some Christmas gifts, she's still buying some baubles for family but from better sources, Tradeasone and Corridorofhope.

I'm REALLY enjoying the new 1.6GPM shower head we have in our bathroom and we had company recently and they had nothing but good things to say about the one I installed in the guest room. One of the best purchases I've made in a while, better than the old one we had and saving tons of water and lowering the bill at the same time! Also happy with the faucet aerators I installed, easy and unnoticeable way to save water.

Researching the new solar power incentives that were passed with the HUGE government bailout (maybe something good will come out of it after all), they removed the $2,000 cap on the tax credit for 2009.

Working today on finishing up the scheduling for an Atlanta trip next week for work, it's my last one before Christmas so it's gonna be a busy few days, 15 or so ministries in 2 1/2 days. Then hafta do some office cleaning...it's outta control.

Starting to do some planning for finishing out a bedroom and bathroom in the basement and getting the upstairs rearranged for baby Ben. Gonna try to use some innovative products in the renovation like denim insulation, concrete stain or bamboo flooring, and decking made from recycled materials.

Making some better recycling bins for glass, aluminum, and paper at the house. Also working on the wife to start composting...

Spending some time the next couple days working on some AWESOME stuff we're doing at Lifepoint the next couple weeks, if you've been thinking about it, THIS is the weekend to check it out! Also gonna have a great Christmas Concert next Sunday, the 14th, and give away some cool stuff like an IPOD and some gift cards, as well as coffee from my favorite and a few of the low flow shower heads I've been bragging about.

That's it for now....
