For Today…<\/strong> July 31, 2016<\/p>\n

\"Simple<\/p>\n

Looking out my window…<\/strong> sunny. It was a blistering 74F today and I seem to be annoying various Californians by pointing this out. \ud83d\ude42 (It was 109F in Sacramento on Friday.) I’m hoping for a pretty sunset tonight.<\/p>\n

I am thinking…<\/strong> about my week and what is on my plate.<\/p>\n

I am thankful…<\/strong> for the sweet woman from church<\/a> who wrapped me in a prayer shawl<\/a> today. It was a good surprise.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite things…<\/strong> Coffee Almond Fudge ice cream from Tillamook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I am wearing…<\/strong> jammies. Clothes from church were a blue-green shirt from Old Navy<\/a> and stretchy black skirt that I got from Lands’ End<\/a> 10+ years ago. When I got home, I exchanged the skirt for my black capris from Kohl’s<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Me<\/p>\n

I am creating…<\/strong> plans for new WIP’s on my hooks.<\/p>\n

I am watching…<\/strong> “Lockup: Indiana – Extended Stay” on MSNBC<\/a>. I’m kind of a forensic show junkie.<\/p>\n

I am hoping…<\/strong> for good sleep tonight and that I can be competitive in the various Workweek Hustles I am part of on Fitbit<\/a>. <\/p>\n

In my kitchen…<\/strong> the normal Sunday fare.<\/p>\n

In the school room…<\/strong> Daniel is done with ESY and school is starting on August 30th.<\/p>\n

Post Script…<\/strong> I liked the list of signs that one is a counterfeit Christian<\/a>. Let’s just say that I know a few people who fit the profile and the list is a warning to me to be authentic with my faith.<\/p>\n

Shared Quote…<\/strong> “So, look, so don\u2019t let anyone ever tell you that this country isn\u2019t great, that somehow we need to make it great again. Because this right now is the greatest country on earth!” — Michelle Obama<\/p>\n

A moment from my day…<\/strong> One of the pictures I took at Deception Pass<\/a> today.<\/p>\n

\"Puget<\/p>\n

Closing Notes:<\/strong> Unless you’ve been intentionally avoiding all political news (which I think is a totally rational option for this election season), you’ve heard Trump’s criticisms of Khzir Khan and his wife Ghazala who spoke at the DNC<\/a>. Their son, US Army Captain Humayun Khan, was killed by a car bomb in Iraq in 2004 while serving as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. One of Trump’s criticisms was that Ghazala was not the one who spoke at the DNC. She didn’t speak because… SHE’S GRIEVING HER SON, EVEN 12 YEARS LATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<\/a><\/p>\n

Here<\/a> is her op-ed from the Washington Post<\/a>, which I found to be very tender and very well-written.<\/p>\n
