It's the Little Things


I love going to the farmers' market as I've mentioned many times.  Today's list included spinach, little potatoes, apples, small decoration pumpkins, and perhaps lettuce.  Although I really needed some meat, it wasn't my farm's day for the market.  My other favorite stop is where I buy my sweets, but I knew this might not happen because of limited funds (cash in the purse).  Farmers' market today, however, was the loaves and fish story.  As I was getting my mini-pumpkins, I noticed it was my farm lady with the meat.  I actually saw her and gave a little yes aloud.  She laughed and the lady next to me looked concerned.  When I went to her booth, I explained that my excitement was caused by my thinking it was next week when she was at the market.  "You didn't post to Facebook.  I didn't think you were coming," I explained.  It seems she posted to FB at 2am, so I hadn't seen it.  My last purchase before my sweets is the apples.  I love the apples, and I love D that sells the apples since we used to work together at OMS.  After purchasing my apples, I still had $7.50 left which was exactly what I needed to buy my lovely muffins.  It seemed money, like the loaves and fishes, kept appearing in my purse.  Unlike the loaves and fishes, I didn't have extras. Life is good my friends.  Life is good.

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.
