I use an Australian Lambswool duster here at housekeeping. Everytime I use it I remember riding the four wheeler will Lelle through the sheep pasture at the Calais' farm in Australia. Lelle will never forget that ride since I drove her straight through a pile of sheep dung. You're welcome Lelle.
Accomplishment after a failure is so much sweeter. You realize to the full extent what has been done.
I realize that my tennis shoes are very dirty and are in great need of a wash.
Lately I find myself wearing sweaters and trying to convince myself that the season really does change in Southern California, the trees have turned colors, and the air is crisp and fresh with a slight hint of smoke in the air from wood furnaces inside the festively decorated homes. When my bubble pops I realize that I'm sweating profusely and highly regret my choice of wardrobe. It's November!
Anyways, those are just a few random thoughts that I have for the day. I hope you enjoyed them.

Lately
Lately, I have found myself easily distracted, which has resulted in less meditation and less guidance in my everyday life. I really enjoy the insights God provides when I slow down and write about what He is doing in my life. Therefore, I'm going to try to start up again. It's a bit difficult as I don't have internet at home. I may just have to write in my journal at home. Anyways, here are some things I've learned lately.
1. Being busy in life isn't about how much you have to do but with how you manage what you have.
2. Cherish the good moments in life and don't be afraid of change.
3. Take time to spend with God and pray. He has a wonderful way of bringing your thoughts back into perspective.
4. Treat others with the same love that you are given.
5. Forgive without grudge.
6. Ask forgiveness without excuse.
7. Exercise is important, but still a challenge to prioritize. :)
8. Wear sunblock...burns hurt badly!
9. Failure - it's not all that bad. It's humbling and has a way of balancing out your ego. It's about being persistent and following through until you have made it. Failure only defines you if you give up.
Anyways, I'd like to write more, but I should go. Until next time.
