Even if nobody asked….
1. My wife is now a podcast co-host.
The show has been around for more than 1,000 episodes, her first appearances goes live in August. She HATES attention and would kill me if I broke my promise to keep quiet about this.
So…..I'm not saying a thing about it. Not a thing!
2. Later is the most expensive word you own.
3. I am at my best when food is FUEL and not ENTERTAINMENT.
4. Funny…95 degrees in Rhode Island feels like 110 while 95 degrees in Florida feels like 85.
Please refrain from talking to me about humidity. (Or wind chill.)
I'm in the other room and can't hear you.
5. The key to keeping your cool and staying excited is living in the FUTURE instead of the PAST.
6. We should hate sin first not because of judgment, but because it breaks God's heart.
7. After losing 35 pounds (if anyone's running a pool), I now live squarely between a small and a medium.
If I look like I'm trying to grow into my shirt, that's the medium.
If I look like I'm wearing a shirt designed for scuba diving, that's the small.
Please extend grace either way.
8. The greatest superpower a person can have is the ability to make other people feel important.
And there's no Kryptonite for that.
9. "If your mom or dad screamed at you when you spilled milk as a kid, it didn't teach you not to spill things. It just made you afraid of milk.”
10. Standing on my deck looking into a yard full of kids and grandkids swimming in the pool, shooting and dribbling on the basketball court, or elevating and descending on the swing set is my own little pep talk, a great halftime speech to myself.
Makes me feel like a hero, a survivor who has triumphed in the face of overwhelming odds.
(Noah Hawley wrote a good bit of this. I doubt he'll notice I wrote the rest.)
Thanks for reading, commenting, sharing and all that. You rock.
