what i lost today

yup, it's been a while. I have been doing better then I expected. I find my things pretty quick. Yesterday morning I looked for my Palm Pilot and figured quite simply that I had left it home. Got home last nite and sure enough...no Palm. I have done the usual looking; car, bedroom, all coat pockets etc...but to no avail! UGH!!!

...and then
This kinda falls into this category. Last nite I lost another friend....John Flick has officially moved away. He's GONE!

It was kinda tough last nite. John has been a very steady fixture in my life for a # of years. Although he is not "lost" he is gone from my daily life. Best wishes John and Holly. We will miss you more then written or spoken words.

humility forgiveness love

Lord please grant me understanding and wisdom.....Lord give me humility and love.

Humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility, humility....ahhhh....much better now....thank you Lord!

no cut paste here.....just repeating the word.....and for next few minutes I think I got. it.

earth

The world is a BIG place. How often do you think of the world? We are so caught up in our own little world that we fail to see the big world. I have been doing some thinking...my world consists of a very complicated lifestyle and yet the majority of the world worries about what I take for granted and I am not talking about broadband internet and digital cable...I am talking about clean water that never even gets hot. WE HAVE HOT WATER. WE HAVE ELECTRICITY. when we don't have electricity it is more then an inconvenience....what do you do? Life stops.

Stop looking at what you want and think you need and start looking at other people and what they need. What will you leave on earth....credit card debt? What will you leave, when you are gone what will you have done? Think hard....what can you leave? If you had one day left to live would you live it for you? Would you go find a roller coaster and ride it so that you get to enjoy the ride or would you do something for someone else? By doing something for someone else you STAND a chance of leaving something behind. The only thing that lasts that you leave behind is light or darkness...light being defined as love. Leave love behind. Start today by loving others, not just by words but by actions. Show love. Be love. Know love.

I found a link; www.howmanyofyou.com . It was a link from someone who posted on Jag's site.
I typed in my name...it said that there were zero people named Tate Perazzelli. Interesting.

On another note. I finally have disposed of all of my roof trash. I still have a few minor bundles of original cedar shake singles left to dispose of ( I figure they are at least 50 years old) but, I am basically complete with the trash. Of course we had major rain and wind this week and guess what...my roof leaked in two places. I know the problem. It's not a big deal so relax.

Currently I am working on installing wood around our bedroom windows. In my infinite wisdom I took all the original wood out thinking I would replace it pronto...well that was a year ago. I am using walnut wood. It is worth the years wait.

Work is good.
Church is excellent.
Friends are awesome.
Family is bliss.

Ultimate Frisbee is this week. Rock on!

There are zero of me...how many are there of you?

Yesterday

I was waiting for my sign guy to get to his shop, I had just dropped my brother off @ work, he had to be in @ 7:45AM. Since the sign guy was only 10 minutes from there I figured it w/b better to wait out the sign guy then go home.
Coffee was in order!

I decided to go to Coffee Works just typing their name makes me yearn for a cup of their joe.

I had left my Arsenal (British soccer team) hat in my pocket cause I thought that should it be cold I could look cool. I went on to the coffee shop and 'lo and behold! A potential car for Aryn! Honda, hmmmm....1997, 116K for 4,750 OBO...I am thinking 3,800-4,200. Looks well maintained. I took the info and went for coffee.
The guy @ the coffee shop was wearing an Arsenal shirt! No way you say? Absolutely! I took out my hat and we were in Arsenal heaven. His name was Joe, nice chap.
Then I went to get hot soft pretzels from the best soft pretzel maker in the world. South Jersey Pretzel. They even have a cool name. After all this....the point of my story?
While waiting for the sign guy for 45 minutes I decided to get Philadelphia magazine from Rite Aid, they didn't carry it. They did carry a magazine called NJ Life. Blew my mind. Did they have the name first or did I?
Well I bought it and it later became the first magazine that I have ever returned. Totally disappointing.

It was not a very interesting magazine. Tons of ads and an article about a wealthy woman who saved a llama. I got nothing out of it and I get something out of everything.

Go out and enjoy the day. I have tons planned....you?
Everything is good right now....after all you live in America.
