"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Summer is over, Fall is around the corner

@ I start back to 8 hour days on Monday...I have been going to school almost every week this summer in getting my room ready and shadowing my Assist. Principal during summer school to gain admin experience...but I have been able to go home as soon as I became tired, that will end starting tomorrow.

@ the school supplies had been purchased

@ the garden is maybe half done for processing

@ I am feeling much stronger, yet get tired quicker than I'd like

@ and hopefully Mim and I have a better understanding of each other


this Fall season will be quiet in comparison to other Fall seasons.

Mim is not participating in cross country running or basketball (as of now anyway) to take a break and to see if the past sports is what she really wants to do, so she will be more involved with our church's youth group in hopes she will find a better friendship circle than she had last year and maybe a non-sporting extracurricular or two at school.

Ve and Tuki will be skating again starting in September as well, so besides work everyday (of which I will be exhausted for a while due to healing from the surgeries), taking one administration class and continue preserving the produce from our garden, I think we will have a relatively quiet fall....I hope!!!!!!
