Sorry I missed my blog last night, but I was up studying for my test and never got one written. But Yesterday I had a class from 9am to 5pm. It was really long, but they covered a lot of stuff. It was pretty decent. After my class I stopped by the church so I could get a computer fixed there. It didn't go as smoothly as I wanted though so It took a little longer then expected. But it still ended up working out ok because Allie needed to finish up what she was doing anyway. We were going to go to dinner afterwards. So it ended up about 7:30 by the time we actually were able to get to dinner. We went to a place called Big Daddy Bimms. It was a BBQ and Crabcake place. It had the type of stuff I knew Allie would like so I wanted to have her try it. She really enjoyed it. After that we ended up going back to her house and us and the family watched a movie. It turned out to be a nice relaxing evening. It was good after my long day of class. Then today we had church, and that was really good. We had a good number of new people today too. I kind of had to hurry out afterwards though. I needed to give Obie ride to Wal-mart before I dropped him off home, then I needed to be at the place to take my test by 1:00. I did end up passing my test today too so that was pretty exciting. I probalby won't use it anytime soon, but at least I have the licence. After getting done with the Test I just headed back to the Donnebergs and hung out there for the rest of the evening. I ready aviation stuff while Allie did homework most of the afternoon. It turned out to be a good relaxing day. Anyway, that pretty much covers it though. I'm going to be heading to bed soon. Night!

Today things at work went really well. I had my regular quota of work done yesterday so today I just helped out some of the other guys, It was pretty cool. After work Allie and I got dressed up to go to a Party RJ was having at his house tonight. I was the Jolly Green Giant and Allie was Chaquita Banana. She was pretty Hott. I'll hopefully have pictures for you all soon for that. Anyway the party was pretty cool and the food was pretty good too, and Allie was pretty Hott.. oh yeah.. forgot I said that already. Alright, I should get to bed. I have a class tomorrow mornign at 9:00. Night All!

Sorry I have been a little behind lately and not written a blog. I've just been busy with things. I have been trying to read through an entire book before the weeked for a class that I am taking. Its about 300 pages or so. Then today I woke up at about 5:00 so I could get to work at 6:00 and try to work on a project while there was nobody else around to get in the way of setting up comptuer stuff. I was able to get a decent amount of it done before people started coming in. But because I had to go in early I had to get to bed early last night. Its just turned out to be a fairly busy week. Tonight Allie and I had a chance to spend a bit of time together for dinner, but it was just a quick visit because we each had our own thing to do tonight. It was good to spend some time with her still though. Tonight I've just been reading pretty much the whole night. I keep getting drowsy though from waking up so early this morning. I'm just going to have to give up for now and head to bed. I still was able to get a lot of reading done though. Anyway, I'm off to bed. Night!

Today was a really busy day. I started off being woke up by a knock on the door. It was my neighbor and he wanted see if we could have breakfast together before I went to church. So I had to rush and get ready and then we had breakfast together this morning. He then decided he wanted to come to church this morning so that was good. I had to come back for him though because he wasn't quite ready to leave when I was. After practice I went back to get him and he seemed to enjoy the time at church. After church I dropped him off then headed over to meet britt because he car wouldn't start. I was going to see if I could help at all. Her dad ended up being there and then ended up just getting a tow truck for her. So I went back to the Donnebergs and visted with a family that came over for lunch. I let the boy (Tyler play with my computer) Later on I ended up going flying. It was a low cloud day though so it was kind of iffy as to whether we would actually go or not. But It ended up working out and I ended up flying at around 4:00. It was cool today because we were on top of the coulds. We weren't able to see the ground or anything, but it was perfectly clear all around us other then below. I thought it was neat. I was wearing a view limiting device though for instrument work so I wasn't able to just look around that much though. I learned some good things today. We actually flew for about an hour and a half, but I still didn't leave until after 8:00. I was there for about four hours today. We actually did the flying part at Lynchburg airport today then had to drive over to Falwell to do the paper work stuff. Once we got back over to Falwell we were there for another two hours. My instructor and I ended up talking about religous things and we had a chance to dissuss our beleif. I found out he is Jehovas Witness but still shared my point of view with him. We talked for about an hour about that. I think it went pretty well and helped him think some. After leaving the airport I returned to the Donnebergs and we watched a movie. I was supposed to read a huge amount of my HAM Raido Book over the weekend because I need it to be read all the way through by the time Saturday comes around, But too many unexpected things happend and I didn't get to even read the first chapter. I'm going to have to do that every night this week now. Anyway I'm back home now and its too late to get any reading done, I am going to just have to head to bed. Night!

Today was pretty fun. Alot of stuff went on. First thing was I had to wake up at 7:00 so I could get my car to the shop this morning. It needed an oil change and new brakes. It was good I took care of it today too because the front brake pads were completely gone. I've been meaning to go in about 4 months ago but things just kept coming up and and kept coming up so it just got pushed back. Then I found out we were going to an apple festival today and I needed to get this done, so I had to wake up all super early to get it dropped off. It required that Allie get up early too because she followed me in her car so I could then use her car for the morning. I dropped her back off at her dorm with it and the next thing was the mens breakfast at church. I had to be there at 8am. The timing worked out well and I still got there about 5 minutes early. It was a good turn out too and we had good disussion. After the breakfast I picked up Allie again and we went back to pick up my car. It was good timing for that too because he was just pulling it out of the shop when we got there. After doing that we went to her house to gather with britt, sam, erin, chuck, jo and juggee and we hit the road to head to the apple festival. There was a lot more going on this time then last time because it turned out to be a good day. So we went on a hay ride. Went pumpkin piking in the Pumpkin patch and just hung out for awhile. We also had brunswick stew for lunch. It was fun to just be out there with everybody. After we left there we came home for awhile and watched a movie until the next thing on our agenda for the day. It was a meeting with a bunch of other colege age people to dissuss a new ministry starting up sometime in January. So they had pizza and dessert and stuff. It ended up going until around 9:00. Affter that we head back home for a bit and sat around and talked for alittle while longer. But we were all pretty tired so we left around 10:40 to come back and get to sleep. Thats what I'm going to do. I'm pretty tired. Night!

I never had a chance to blog last night so I am going to catch up on that now. Yesterday was a better day at work, things wen tfairly smoothly this time. I have been having to scroung around to get the job done though because we are out of stock on a lot of stuff. I had to go out an dfind used PCs and mOnitors that weren't up for lease for awhile and send those out in replacement of the ones that are already up for lease. I also have to deal with the users asking me why they get an old used one and not a new one. But at least I am still able to do some work. Yesterday I also had the opportunity to go to a football gave (VA vs. NC) I was going to go with a guy from my church but he ended up not being able to go. So now I had an extra ticket and now one to go with. I tried to call a few people but it was just too last minute for everybody. So I ended up not going either. I didn't want to make the trip out there by myself. I ended up just staying home and working on someones computer and doing some aviation homework reading. I just felt bad letting two $40 tickets go to waste. Oh well, I tried best I could. Anyway I have another somewhat busy day ahead of me. I should get going.

Today was kind of a rough day at work. I didn't end up leaving until 6:00 tonight. There were just a bunch of things I had to take care of today that didn't work out the first time like they should have. I had to go back to every computer I did today to get things working right. It was kind of annoying. I was running all over the place. I will still have a few loose ends to tie up tomorrow when I go in again. After work I ended up going over to someones house to fix a computer. That ended up going smoothly though and they were really happy with how it worked afterwards. After I finished up with that I ended up going over to another families house and had dinner there. It was fun to just hang out with them for awhile tonight. Once I left there and came home I had two more computer things I had to work on. I gone on done and ready to go and another is finishing up as I type. So yeah, it was a really busy day today. I haven't really had much downtime. I'm really ready for bed now. Night!

Today was a pretty productive day. Went to church as usual this morning and it was kind of a hectic morning.. there was a project I needed to get done for the service today so I worked on that almost right up till the service started. But everything ended up going very well and I think the message was what a lot of the people needed. He talked about having courage to stand up for christ. It was about Joshua and the verse "As for me and my house we will server the Lord" It was cool. After church I went over to the Donnebergs and we had a really good lunch. Then Allie and I did homework most of the afternoon. She was studying for a CLEP test she has to do on Tuesday, you all might want to keep that in your prayers. If she passes it she will get out of four different classes and that would be really helpful. I then worked on some aviation homework stuff. We have a test in that class on tuesday so I was going over some study questions I feel pretty good about that now. Anyway it was a fun day. Time for bed now though, Night!

Ok, I am going to try to get to bed early tonight because I'm not feeling all that well. I want to make sure I'm better for saturday because I'm supposed to go flying. Today was a decent day over all. Nothing much too exciting to talk about. I ended up going shopping after work and picking up a few things, but other then that, I've been home all evening. I used the time here to add some more pictures to my website. You can check them out at www.jerdill.com/photos. Enjoy! I'm going to head to bed. Night!

Today was a cold wet and rainy day, but I still managed to have fun. Allie, Erin, Britt, Tim, Chuck and Jo all decided to go to an apple festival today. Unfortunatly it wasn't much of a festival because it was so cold and rainy. But we had fun on the 45 minute drive there and back. It wasn't for nothing though because they did still have some stuff setup inside so we could taste apples, hear some of the music and buy some apples. I was hoping to go through the corn stock maze but they had that closed. It was sad. Once we got back from the drive we did some shopping and just hung out with each other. I wasn't able to stay and watch a movie with everyone though because I already had plans to take Obie to a concert at Liberty tonight. So I picked him up around 6:30 and we headed to campus. It started out not working out like I had hoped. Everything was distracting him and he was getting frustrated at some of the people that were around him. Plus all he cared about was the idea of a concert and not really what the whole concert was about. I think by the end of it he was able to figure it out somewhat. I even heard him singing some too, and he calmed down quite a bit. I don't know for sure what was going on in his heart and mind, but I think he felt something in the end and I hope God spoke to him in some way. Ok well, I need to get to bed. I'm kinda tired and have to wake up early for worship practice tomorrow. Night!

The last few days have been pretty good. Not too much worth mentioning though. I have been doing pretty well on the job lately and I'm getting it all figured out. I like the people I work with and my manager is really cool too. I've had to ride the elevator a lot today. I have to get used to doing that. It plays tricks with my head after you ride it up and down like 20 times in a few hours. Anyway, it is the end of my second week here now, and I'm enjoying it. I'm excited also because tonight I will get to take Allie out on a date to Red Lobster. It will be fun! It is our Year and a half anniversary today. I'm pretty happy about that. Plus she is hott! Oh sorry, that just kinda slipped in there.... Well... she is! Ok I better go now.

Ok, I decided to start on writing my blog early tonight, that way I won't get too tired and not be able to later. This weekend was a really good weekend. On saturday Allie and I attended a relationship seminar with a few other "friend couples" of ours. It turned out to be a really good seminar too. The only problem was that there was soo much information to take in all at once. It would have been good if it was separated into a few sessions. On sunday we had a good day too. We went to church as usual which went pretty well. After that we headed over to the Donnebergs for the rest of the evening. Allie had some homework she need to work on and I had a few other things I wanted to setup on my new laptop. So we spend a good part of the afternoon doing that. We then decided to go get a movie and watch that with the family. We decided on getting "Eight Below" The movie was actually pretty good. But I think the best part was a scene where a leopard seal poped out of a dead whale and it scared Allie to death. It wasn't just a little startled scream or anything we're talking all out scream for almost a good 2 seconds. It was great! She said that is the only time she's ever really screamed in a movie, and I was there to see it! So funny! It was really just a great day of relaxing and hanging out sunday. It was good. Today I started my second week on the Job. Again things are going really well. I'm going to try and take over on my own tomorrow. We'll see how that goes. Alright, well thats it for now. I'm going to finish up a few things and then head to bed. Night!
