Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Zumba Squad Goals

On Mondays I do a Zumba class at a local church. For me its about getting some exercise and having connection with other people. This was our last class for awhile with our instructor Emily who is having a baby in January. We will have Jennifer who will be a fill in instructor for a couple of months.

I have embraced the craze that is Star Wars: The Force Awakens and brought it my phones wallpaper. Pretty cool stuff.

What’s Up With The Weather, It’s Truly Confusing

I am confused about the weather we are having here in Tennessee. Forecasts have us with rain much of the week and early fall like temperatures. Cold temperatures have been few and far between. At times we are running the air conditioning during the day and heat at night. Maybe things will be seasonal soon and lets hope we can get some snow sometime. The weather here is messing how things are supposed to be at Christmas time. Perhaps there is something to be said about global warming.

Howdy Newbies

To those who are new to my blog I appreciate your time and interest. I post about a lot of different things here. Personal reflections to pop culture, religion, food, current events and community. You will also see my Instagram pix too! I hope you will find something you like and that my blog can inspire you in some way. Keep on blogging my friends.

Reconnect

When a fellow blogger reconnects with you it’s a good thing. However you wonder if you posted something that drove them away, or was it a technical issue that severed the connection you thought you once had. I worry a little about such things. No one will post something everyone agrees with all the time, but you hope to build understanding and dialogue. Thanks again to all who follow me and my blog.
