So it's been a while since I have been able to write. The last time I wrote, I worked part-time with my brother, and we had a third child on the way.
Well, baby #3 is here. I went full-time with my brother for a few months. And then it was all too much to juggle between two full-time working parents and three kids. So, I quit my full-time job at the end of the winter to return to the dad-force.
Now, I am looking to get back into writing.
What have I been doing in the meantime?
Reading, thinking, and taking care of some cuteness.
Reading
Well, here are some books and blogs I have been sifting through, and I look forward to working through a few more over the next couple of months as blessed school returns.
Dad Tired and Loving It By Jerrad Lopes
Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott
My Tech-Wise Life by Amy Crouch
Graphs about Religion by Ryan Burge
Life is A Sacred Text By Rabbi Rutenberg
ParentData by Emily Oster
How to Write a Must Read by AJ Harper
Thinking about Layers of faiths
You have already seen the cuteness, but he will be chilling with me for at least another year before any school or daycare can start.
As far as thinking, that will be the topic of discussion over the next few months.
We are going to be looking at the layers of our faiths.
Some of the swirling ideas are:
The benefits of nationalism
Choosing who Caesar is in your life.
How the law is used to obstruct justice
Thoughts from both sides of the career jungle
The economics of fatherhood
Let me know if you are interested in any of these or have some initial thoughts. I write much better if I have some questions to write to.
