Update on last night. I found a great new route for the run. Actually, let me rephrase that statement. Amy had suggested we try a different route for our run and last night I went with it. Good route. It actually measures out at 3.2 miles and only has brief uphill runs. It's a good one. I may go for it again tonight as I am not going to get the elliptical up and going for a boot.
I was talking to Corrine during work yesterday and was talking about a small portion of something. I am on this subject because I just used the word boot and that may have thrown someone. I use boot in place of bit just in case you didn't figure that out or perhaps thought I screwed up there. So anyways I used the word skosh and it threw her for a loop. I am fairly certain she has never heard that word before. In asking me what it meant I went on to say something like 'a skosh, you know a klein biki'. Klein Biki - that is a little South African lingo for you. Hitting that with a little Xhosa I cant write it out, I can only pronounce it as it has clicks and I don't know how to write the clicks. It is the C click which is off the front of the tongue. I know very intriguing stuff. Anyhow, I should use more of this quality lingo when I am speaking. Keep people on their toes.
So hey, I am rambling here a bit and that is okay. It is what I do. I was going through some pics in the phone trying to pull out those that are related to the building. I found some gems and then came across one of my favorites. I had to chuckle one day when we were delivering a table. I was walking out of the house when I caught a look at the garage on the other side of the street. There it was, a custom garage door built special to house a boat that was just a little too long for the garage. Check it out.
What do you say about that? Boat, mostly garage kept... Funny that in life not everything fits exactly the way we want it to or think that it should. Sometimes we have to improvise or use our flexible brains. Superflex is a character that they use in the special needs program at Jack's school to help students deal with change and the unexpected. The other character is Rock Brain who melts down whenever there is change because he cannot handle when something doesn't go exactly his way. I am about to turn 38 years old and yet I found myself captivated by these little characters and learning how to manage change appropriately. Sometimes we seek for things through prayer and fasting and sometimes our will isn't always in harmony with the Lords will. If we are humble and flexible in our own minds or spirits, willing to submit to the Father we will find happiness more readily in our lives.
So that is the boat door. Really just a silly looking door but perhaps a little lesson in there. Don't know. Dave?
