Yes, you know her. She's typically called "OctoMom."This will be short 'cause I'm pooped. Can't say why, but I felt like I was working harder than usual this morning. I struggled with sermon prep so I was probably stressed during the preaching thereof. It happens.
One of my favorite things is seeing the light go on. Whether in church or in the classroom I've always felt great satisfaction when someone has that, "Oh! I get it!" look on their face.
This morning in our adult class I did the lesson on baptism. (That may be another reason I'm tired; that lesson requires pedagogical precision.) Afterward someone almost ran up to me to say this was the first time anyone ever explained it to them. They'd heard lots of preachers talk about baptism, but never explain the what or the why (or why not).
I'll feed off of that for at least three days.
This site is in French so I have no idea what it says, except for the Bon Voyage part. But if you click on a city to the left you get a short video (some are narrated, some aren't) of the key sights. Phoenix and Seattle both appear. Grand Rapids does not. Go figure.
Le tour de monde
At lunch today we got on the topic of daily caloric intake. I've never given it much thought, but my family thinks I consume a lot of the them. They pointed out that the quesadillas I had constituted almost a full day's allotment.
So no more days off. Every day a bike ride.
'cause I LIKE my calories.
In fact, I'll do an extra 5 miles tomorrow so I can have a brownie tonight. OK, a second brownie. But I promise to stop there.

So long as your exercise and other daily activities burn the calories you consume, you're generally OK. Where most of America should share a burrito at Chipotle or skip the cheese on the Whopper and the large fries - you are the exception. Between the thyroid and the compulsive biking, you could mainline donuts and still shop for "petite" jeans. Now, heart disease and bad cholesterol may ensue, but that speeds up the passing of that impressive estate of yours - so eat on!
