A homeless man has been sentenced to nearly four years in prison and ordered to pay more than $101 million for starting two fires, including one that burned more than 163,000 acres in California two years ago.
“There are so many things that feel uncertain now, but the key for you is to understand that you cannot push the river any faster than it is flowing. It will reach the sea. It always does. You feel uncertainty because you cannot see beyond the next bend. You’ll get there soon enough and the vistas will open before your eyes. In the meantime, enjoy where you are.”
Your dad is pretty funny. We were talking about the Peace Corp and that I would have to learn to eat the local food and asked me what I would if I ended up with a cannibal tribe. I about died it was so funny. Sad thing is that there are some villages in the area that do still practice cannabalism.
Hey does anyone have a good (cheap) pressure washer that they use? I need my house and deck pressure washed and was just wondering. Or if anyone out there, close to Kennesaw, has a pressure washer of their very own that would like to get paid to do my house??
Classes actually start next Sunday. I'll handle the class for you that morning, no worries. Anytime you're out, just let me know and I'll fill in or get someone else to.
Today I ate lunch with one of my favorite little kids, Chad Johnson. It is so neat to see him in his little environment with his school friends, it is crazy to think of him being old enough to go to school. But I love the idea of him in his desk, playing games I have never heard of during indoor recess. (whatever happened to Heads-Up, 7-Up?) His friend that he picked to sit with us for lunch was even more chatty than him if you can believe that and I had such fun just watching them interact. As I watched and tried to keep up with the conversation about “you remember this…you remember that” I realized that the “Little Bitty Face” that I used to be able to hold in one hand has not changed a bit, he still has a tiny face and one of the largest personalities behind it of anyone I have ever known. If you know Chad you know he has never met a stranger and can win anyone over with a smile. When I watch Chad at church or anywhere with a group of people I picture a potential presidential candidate working the crowd and “kissing babies”. At my sister’s wedding this summer I saw grown men pointing at him and telling the person next to them “You see this kid? He is working the room!” So if you don’t already know this little guy with the bigger than life personality you need to (he will be the one in the middle of all the girls three times his age) because he is going to be your president one day!
