Kleptomania


Sometimes I enjoy stealing from others.  After all, this is how I came up with my motto for this year.  Actually, I'm still happy with my motto, but I do think I will need to remind myself constantly (Stay Calm.  Move Forward).  Yesterday I used it as I spent part of the day at the district.  This post is not about my motto or my school day; it's about stealing. 

Today I read jdoc's blog and found out about Written? Kitten!  I'm not really sure how it works, but I'm giving it a try and counting it as part of my blog post today.  As soon as I typed 100 words, an image of a kitten appeared at the side.  It gives me my word count at the bottom.  If all goes well, I will get a picture of another kitten in sixty-two words.  Even though I'm not really a believer of word counts (should be hyphenated... needed more words for my next kitten), I think this would be fun for students.  Maybe they have dog pictures although dog or puppy doesn't rhyme with written.  Perhaps the inventors of Written? Kitten! should look into this.  With seven words remaining before my new kitten, I would like to thank jdoc for today's post.

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.
