Today is Armed Forces Day, and I would like to thank everyone who has served or is serving the USA.
It’s been a week filled with tissues, antibiotics, and doctors around here as I muddle through with a nasty sinus infection. Any sort of cold or infection I get is usually worse because of my immune system issues, plus the cold/infection, in turn, makes my immune system symptoms worse. One feeds the other, and so on.
There’s an awesome powerboat race in town this weekend, and I hope to go to the parade today and the race tomorrow, provided that the weather cooperates. Hope you find something close to your heart to enjoy this weekend too! The sickness has given me, if nothing else, time, and I’ve been able to collect some good sites for you to check out this week.
Blackbeard’s Ship Confirmed Off North Carolina – pretty neat! From National Geographic
Why You Aren’t Dead Yet – by Michael Hyatt
What Makes a Good Life – from Erin Congdon
Top 50 Inspiration Blogs – so glad to see some of my favorites on the list
You Are Free, Like it or Not! – from David at Raptitude.com
The Top 10 Reasons Warchild Should Have Backed Off. Seriously – by my good friend Johnny Utah
Watch Ya’ Mouth – from Joe Santagato. Once you have recovered from the hilarity of this video, you need to watch all 5 Mad Libs Madness videos he did with his brother Keith. I haven’t laughed that hard in a very long time (and I’ll be honest, I just watched them all again and my stomach hurts from laughing). If you find inappropriate language offensive, then I’d suggest passing on these gems.
and finally,
I’m Taking a Digital Sabbath starting tomorrow, as suggested by Elizabeth Gilbert.
Have a great week,
Jill
