G is for Giving Tree, Galactic Pizza, and Gamble

Giving Tree- The Giving Tree is one of my favorite books. It still brings tears to my eyes when I read it. The movie of the giving tree below is read (narrated) by Shel Silversteen. Take ten minutes to watch it or go find the book on your shelves and read it.



Galactic Pizza is one of my favorite pizza places. The pizza is fabulous. They use 100% electric cars to deliver their pizzas, and the pizza delivery people are dressed in super hero costumes. Renewable wind energy is used to power their pizza joint. Even the straws are made from a corn mixture (??) and not plastic. One of my favorite pizzas is the Second Harvest Heartland pizza. When one purchases this pizza, a dollar is given to the charity.

July 7th (07/07) seems to be the day I take a gamble. Two years ago I signed on my new home. Today I had a procedure to remove the dog bite scar. The plastic surgeon is awesome. Before he started, he answered my list of ten questions including a question about flossing my teeth since it moves the area. He literally cut out the old scar and sewed it back together in hope that the new scar will be much thinner (barely visible).

I like the idea of having an official "Take a Gamble" Day.

I could say I was a bit drugged up after my scar revision, but I don't think that's it. I have changed electric pizzas to electric cars!

The Gicing Tree is my favorite book and I give it to every child I know. I hope the surgery went well and the outcome is fabulous. But either way remember you are a beautiful person!

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa .  "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal."  My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active.  Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside.  December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity.  I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food).  Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country .  President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" .  Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group.  The...

What if... The Delivery

  Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska.  When she opened the box, she was confused.  Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag.  When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun.  She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind.  During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt.  When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird.  The friend was in a state of denial.  Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments.  She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt.  After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened.  The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
