Wanted Dead or Alive

Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi

It's all the same
Only the names will change
Everyday
It seems we're wastin' away

Another place
Where the faces are so cold
I drive all night
Just to get back home

I'm a cowboy
On a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted
Dead or alive
Wanted
Dead or alive

This evening I decided to clean the house, so I could decorate for Christmas tomorrow after I get lost (It's true; I always get lost when I go to St. Paul) and eat Thanksgiving dinner in St. Paul. One task was to dispose of a plant that I tried to repot two weeks ago hoping it wasn't actually dead. This week I had to admit that the plant (from my grandfather's funeral, several years ago) was not going to revive. I kept it even after its demise because it came from my grandfather's funeral and because the cat has been eating it. My fear is now he'll start eating the other plant (also from grandfather's funeral). Anyway, I removed the plant and made room for festive decorations. Cleaning went as I expected. Typically I never get to the dusting part because I get bored and don't like to dust. Most of the house is presentable and decorations will go up tomorrow with or without dusting.

Bummer about the plant! We can't even keep one alive for a single year, so you're miles ahead of us. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

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.
