TMI (The Mucous Intensifies)

90º at 7:18pm.... so thankful to know the pollen cast is high... really!

Today the temperature rose to 98º (98 dry delightful degrees). Instead of enjoying the weather or going to the gym, I'm sitting in my house contemplating taking drugs and going to bed (at 7:18 pm). It seems as though I'm asking for you to feel sorry for me, but I love the weather and will fight the allergies. In fact, I even had a wonderful surprise on this glorious day. My dad called at lunch and asked if he could take me out for dinner since he was driving through town. On the way to dinner, I amused him with the story of today's seventh grade "girl fight" explaining how one girl's mom held her daughter's books and commanded her daughter to go get the other girl in the halls of our middle school. Even with my creativity (not really) and wit (totally), he knew I couldn't possibly invent the story. To further my description, I even drew the map on our table while we enjoyed happy hour (best time to take a daughter out for dinner... just saying). This isn't the only gift I gave my dear dad. I also spit out the phlegm (greenish, yellowish, thick mucous) and showed it to him in the tissue. As I did it, I commented on what a lady I had become making all of this happen in my dress. Don't worry, I did this in the car and not at the table... geesh... what kind of lady do you think I am. He still bought dinner, so he couldn't have been too freaked out. The joys of being my dad. At least he has stories to tell his girlfriend when he calls her this evening. TMI? Perhaps!

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.
