Others writing the Sunday Somethings: Kerry
Something that makes me happy: Seeing people stick up for me and knowing i am loved.
Something i am struggling with: Everything was hard this week. I am under some stress at work and i feel like i might never catch up. And the bridge tournament partnerships job made me cry. More on that in another post.
Something tasty: The just-add-water-and-heat soups we purchased at the flea market last week were pretty good. Unfortunately they also led to some undesirable gastrointestinal side effects, and a horrible aroma that will forevermore be known as French Onion Poop.
Something i learned: Beijing is 13 hours different from us.
Something from the bridge table: Perhaps i’ll write up a few hands from the tournament.
Some things i am doing towards my goals: I managed to get all my runs in this week, even though i had too much work to do and a bridge tournament to play in. But i made time for ME. I ran 24 miles this week (6+6+12).
Something i am reading: The New Atheism: Taking a Stand for Science and Reason, by Victor Stenger
Something happening around the house: The pile of laundry on the bedroom floor is now so large that Nugent has decided it is his new bed.
Something i am thinking: In my life, i am pretty much trying my best all the time. Whatever the situation, i am putting forth a good faith effort. It bothers me when other people do not do the same.
Something i am looking forward to: Lance and i have been working on making baseball card “sets.” We’re working on one from 2011 and one from 1987. For him there is a lot of nostalgia particularly in the 1987 one. For me it’s just fun to put things in order and see him get so excited. This week should be calmer, and i see a lot of baseball cards in our evenings this week.
Something random: This week i am going to get a bunch of girl scout cookies delivered to me. I ordered 2+ boxes from every girl/form i saw.
Something planned: 3 non-Somethings posts this week.
Something captured: Bridge cupcakes! Lance and i made these Wednesday night to share at the Raleigh bridge tournament this past weekend. We have two rows of common bridge scores, along with Pass, Double and Redouble cupcakes.
