Black Friday


While other people shopped on Black Friday, I wrote on and addressed all of my Christmas cards (both the naughty and the nice).  Some folks will receive two because I couldn't decide which was better suiting for their personality.  Of course, I'll try to wait until December to mail them, but it's nice to have this task completed.  I'm not going to lie, however, I enjoy writing notes to friends and loved ones.


Today I also hit the pavement and did a short ride.  The weather was amazing and it felt good to be back on my bike.  Plus, Britt Britt and I took several jaunts up and down the railroad tracks and through the leaves.  Nothing is better than spending a November day outside. 

Let me end with a little shopping advice.  If you are like me and hate to shop, the time to go to Costco is at 6:30 on a Friday night.  Parking is available and crazy folks don't run into you with their shopping carts.  Best of all, you don't have to wait in super long lines with crabby folks. Take my advice my friends.

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.
