I discovered my blood type from the last time I gave blood and nearly passed out doing so. After giving blood I didn't feel back to myself for probably three days. Still, I like the idea of giving my blood to help save someone's life. I am blood type A positive, and according to Japanese tradition, I am a "farmer". I read the personality type, and it jives pretty well with me. I think it's so interesting that the Asian world bases much of their interactions on it.
I opened a free account to Dave Ramsey "Every Dollar Matters". I listen to him two hours out of my work day now, and I enjoy him a great deal. My days circle around the radio- John Jay Justus (local Tucson), Dave Ramsey, the World on NPR. Once in a while a little country or K Love.
The Tucson Bus Strike continues- day 35. Personally, I notice that I am much happier not riding, but I feel badly for the people that are suffering because the city is so weak in leadership.
So many big things are going on in the world- the Syrian refuge crisis touches me so, and I am looking into ways to do something.
Still reflecting on the message from Sunday. I like the idea of putting all my self into the offering plate. Also, each ingredient to make a chocolate cake can taste pretty awful by itself, but in the end- after being stirred and baked with time- it works out and tastes sweet. A clever reminder of God working all things out for good in our lives.
Grilled out, played cards, and watched some fantastic movies this weekend. I'll be honest- a lot of tear jerkers. Unbroken, Home Front, The Man from Nowhere! Some intense movies! But it also felt good to laugh myself to oblivion with Tyler Perry's movie, A Madea Christmas. It felt so, so good to laugh!
I finally have a couch...
