Another Weekend Update

So, my friends, I apologize for the lack of updates,

Many of you already keep up with me, so it’s not hard to figure out what’s going on when I have a lack of posts. Truth is, I’ve been keeping busy! I have some big projects coming up at work, school started last week, and I’ve been trying to get some time for myself squeezed in there.

In my free time I’ve been playing with my new camera, which has been a joy. I really forgot how much I enjoyed photography and how inadequate my old camera was. It was a good “point-and-shoot” camera, but for the more advanced stuff that I like to do, it just didn’t measure up. I have even created a section on here called “Photography by Kiel” which I hope to start working on soon. I took some good pictures at the Indy Air Show this weekend and hoping to post some of those.

This past weekend was filled with joy and sadness. The sad part? I had to get rid of my faithful 1995 Geo Prizm LSi. I’m pretty grateful that it has held up for so long… we even drove through the mountains of Tennessee together. Fortunately the car didn’t break down on me while up in Chicago. The joyful part is that I got a 2004 Chevy Impala LS… which I’m loving! My most favorite thing about it (apart from the stereo sounding good) is that it has cupholders! That’s right… it’s the little things. My old Prizm was supposed to be a “luxury” model (if there is such a thing with the Geo) and it didn’t even have cupholders! The only downside is that my new car doesn’t get as good of gas mileage as the Geo or the other car I was looking at (Honda Civic), but I will survive.

In my personal life I have been doing alright. I have had to learn to say “no” to people and to create some distance so that I can have some time for myself. It has been through that time that I’ve been able to connect closer with God, spend some time searching myself, and I feel so much better. So that can probably explain the lack in blog posts. HOPEFULLY, I will start posting more now that my mind is a little more free. We shall see!
