Good morning, Eddie. Happy Tuesday. Oh, I like the syncopated start. Yeah, yeah, just a little bit of a, you know, do you? Yeah, it feels good. Come in like that. After a week in blush. Just come in like that.

How's your morning been? I'm leading you to ask about my morning, but I actually do want to care about your morning. Coming in on two wheels had to get, have you get all the way ready this morning before we start, which normally I get halfway ready before we start.

And more ready. I don't know how that's possible. Maybe that matters.

I'm not saying you normally sound not ready, but there's a certain like sharpened definitiveness about the world that you're facing right now. We're normally we're easing in together. Yeah, it's my eye makeup is here.

That's why it's here that I make up here. So I'm got to got a meeting in 45 minutes. So I had to be ready. Usually I, we record and then I go finish getting ready. And then I go to work. And this time it will be record and meet. So

Oh, how's the meeting? Are you looking forward to it? Oh, yeah, because it's my, my friend who helps me with all the design stuff at my house in my office.

And we have work at both places. And so she's coming here and then we're going there.

Oh, yeah, well, that's good. It's a porch work. We're going to we're going to finish up that porch out there. I cannot wait. Oh, that's going to be nice. It's so perfect for a quarantine fall. Oh, geez, don't.

We're just a regular fall. People have really been a churpan at me about how at some point during our actual quarantine shows that we're back on that that sounds fun feed. I said something about.

Well, by the time we get to July dot, dot, dot, meaning it would be over. People really been churpan about. Oh,

First I said that about July and I'm like, well, how could I have known? And I was very hopeful. And it was my birthday month.

Yeah. And also I'm very proud of them for having the foresight to know that a kind of a once in a species kind of pandemic would last this long. I'm like, it's impressive that they knew because of the rest of the world. No,

I'm right. But good for them for knowing. I wish they had told us because I really thought it was going to be March April. Maybe we'd mess up a little bit of

May, but but by June, we're on.

We're back on. Yeah. Did you have you? I may have an Andy Stanley. I can't remember which church it is. But have you heard this story that last week or the week before a big

church had a like an armed forces special forces guy on as a guest on Sunday morning. Have you heard this?

No, cool. And and he talked about how prisoners of war survive.

And and he said the trick and as a prisoner of war is you cannot go by Christmas wheel by 2021. We will because if you do that, when you get to that date and the thing hasn't happened,

it it cycles you into depression or into deeper sadness and in in actual prisons when they're prisoners of war, those are the men who die.

They are the ones who don't survive because of their the way they've chosen to handle perseverance. And so what he said is literally

do tomorrow and then do the next day and then do the next day and don't do what I did. By the time do you like it's here, certainly blah blah blah.

And so you just need to look forward to tomorrow with what we have versus looking forward to Christmas with what we hope we have.
