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~ Photo: ...

Keeping cool with Cham Wae

It is so hot today in the DC metropolitan area. We have temperatures hovering in and around 95° up and down the Eastern seaboard. My wife went out to the market and brought home plenty of fruit and vegetables for us to eat as we chill. The above picture is a Korean melon called Cham Wae. Now, some of you may all ready know about this interesting looking fruit, but a brother like me had to look it up on the internet. Yes, this is how we learn. We try new things and if we like them, we induct them into our everyday lives. Cham Wae is good; I think I will include it on my grocery list. Well, be cool wherever you are and try something new today. Peace~
