OK. Friday’s Indian lunch buffet and an 11-mile run only amounted to a plus .05 pounds. Saturday’s pizza buffet, 2 pieces of dessert and ice cream with no other activity amounts to plus 2.5 pounds.

Life lesson #77 – Don’t underestimate the need to get moving! It is the difference from a successful plan and a failed lifestyle.

We just finished a 6 week series on the Book of Esther at church — the takeaway and message. This is the only book in the bible that does not mention God — ultimately, it mimics today’s society and its attempt to take God out of everything. The Book of Esther ultimately reveals God’s providence. I truly believe there are no coincidences or as it so commonly used today, “being lucky” I believe in the providence of God and I will use our pastor’s phrasing, “Coinci-God”

Today’s Activities:

•  3pm – Found out a friend purchased his first house and was moving today. Offered my services and the good news is that he had a UHaul and most of the bigger items boxed and ready to go. Started at 3pm – Finished at 5:45pm. In the Northern California heat, looked like I ran 10 miles. Congratulations to my friend — the new place looks great!
