Don't Wait

don't wait
to pray for someone
to encourage someone
to admonish someone
to help someone
to cheer up someone
to congratulate someone
to remember someone
to serve someone
to greet someone
to check on someone
to smile at someone
to thank someone
to appreciate someone

don't wait
to be asked
to do something for someone... with someone... because of someone

Day Two

a relaxing day
Panera bread is yummy
good deal on coat, boots, earmuffs and sweatshirts
chinese cookbook - my first of many
there was traffic!

they say it's cold today
but my nose hairs didn't freeze
and i didn't even shiver much
although it did cool off in the evening
but still, my nose hairs didn't freeze

Wok Inn
chinese fast food
right down the street from where we're staying
nice chat with the lady there
able to fill that chinese food yearning


Becky's Diner

Day One

to the "land of the free"
first, they make you wait and feel very small...
and grateful that you were not turned away
then you pay your money
and walk through the door to the other side
to the "land of the free"

in the "land of the free"
everything is cheaper
if you have 'the loyalty card' ... one for each store
and everything can be bought
in multiples for even cheaper
well, almost everything
cuz the clementines -
they're 8 dollars a box
in the "land of the free"

in the "land of the free"
'everything moves a lot faster' than back home
or so they say
but one thing's for sure
'every meal is bigger' than back home
in the "land of the free"

ice storm!
