Sunday


In the teaching world, August is like Sunday night.  Monday is coming.  Well, this coming Sunday will actually be the Sunday before Monday work day, and I'm not sure I'm ready.  Although I typically get up early in the summer (7ish), today I awoke at 6:00 to leave for God's Country.  This is still later than I will need to awake once school begins.  My guess is that it's going to be a rough start.  I know..  I know... Many are back, and many have to work all summer long.  I get it.  It's not going to make it any easier for me.

This evening as I was returning from the Taco House,  I saw this orchard near my across from the vast corn field at my Dad's.  When he mentioned getting apples from it a week ago, I had no idea it existed.  As I stopped my car on the little gravel road to let three deer hop by, I looked over to see if anyone else was in their group and saw the apples.  Maybe tomorrow, when it's less buggy, I'll go pick a couple.

I'm not sure there's ever an easy start.

I'm 3 weeks in now, but I still feel a bit discombobulated. But I've been out of the game for awhile. I think it will settle down soon???

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.
