Thursday Weblog



Greetings friends and family.  Despite the heatwave, I had a chance to get out today.  Walked about 3 miles and stopped once at a cooling station [McDonald's for a cup of water].  I sat there for about 10 minutes and proceeded up to Starbucks where I did some proofreading and a bit of writing.  In terms of progress, I have finished one piece, and I am organizing the writing and ideas for the other pieces.  I've put everything into an outline.  I eventually returned home around 3pm and that's when all the distractions started.  I have to laugh to myself because distractions are only allowed.  We have to give permission to distractions.  I chose to be distracted.  Pray for me; I need more focus.

Anyway, tomorrow is a new day.  If God is willing for me [us] to see another day then I hope to do better.  I am going to spend the rest of the evening with my family.  Enjoy your evening as well.  Peace~

Distractions are wicked little imps, teasing.
