Therapy (119/365)

“After a year in therapy my psychiatrist said to me, "Maybe life isn't for everyone"”
~ Larry Brown

TIME: 6:30 PM
PLACE: Podunk Illinois

We don't have a lot in Podunk, but we do have a Physical Therapist, and today was my first visit for the initial evaluation. Interesting little fact ... my flexibility is far greater in my "injured" leg than in my good leg. Odd ...

~*~*~


“He sometimes ran a purple ribbon through his typewriter and gushed where he should have dammed.”
~ T. E. Kalem

TIME: 8:30 PM
PLACE: Church
SUBJECT: Purple

This purple paisley lanyard holding a name tag is what gives me the authority to tell 300 middle schoolers what they can and cannot do. I sure wish it worked at home the way is does in church!

Ignite (115/365)

“There comes that mysterious meeting in life when someone acknowledges who we are and what we can be, igniting the circuits of our highest potential.”
~ Rusty Berkus

TIME: 6:00 PM
PLACE: Church
SUBJECT: Ignite

I took Cam and his girlfriend, Heather, to a concert at the church tonight. Tickets were $5 (they had been free in the past) with all proceeds going to crisis pregnancy centers in the area. The event sold out, raising $10K in donations, and the music was outstanding!

~ Ernest Hemingway

TIME: 9:00 AM
PLACE: Podunk Illinois

It's been foggy, drizzly and rainy here since Friday. Honestly? I kind of enjoy the mysterious haze that shrouds everything. In fact, it makes me a bit homesick!
