The Perfect Day

So lots of times people send out those email surveys and one of the questions usually talks about what you would do on your perfect day. Well today Saturday October 20, 2007 - was a pretty darn good almost perfect day for me I must admit. So I thought I would share my day and then afterwards I would say things that could have been added into it to make it MY Perfect Day.
Today: I got up early to work a basketball camp for 3rd - 5th graders (boys and girls). It is is so fun to work with little kids and getting to teach them some dribble moves, and watching them execute them sometimes even better than I teach them. It is fun to watch them dribble two basketballs at the same time and also crossover - yep both of the basketballs....it is super fun. After that I talked on the phone to my really great friend Johnny Mac. I came home and watched some college football while I ate a healthy lunch (280 days to Jamaica trip), then I ended up falling asleep for awhile - naps - love 'em. Then I sat outside for awhile with the pets, it was a gorgeous day here in KS. Watched more college football...Jayhawks beat Colorado, and the Buckeyes beat Michigan St. I typed some highlighted books while watching/listening to the games. Then later in the day/evening time I talked on the phone with a couple of my out of town friends and hung out with my roommate before she went to work. Then I watched the end of the playoff game between Boston and Cleveland.And now I am typing to my blog readers. So there it is ladies and gentlemen a pretty darn good almost perfect day.
Adjustments: Okay to be honest there are only a few that I would make. I would still take in a nap somewhere in the day, it would just be shorter. I would like to eat some of my favorite foods instead of being healthy...like Mexican food or a pizza. I would like to watch some KU jayhawks basketball, and the lady volunteers basketball. I would see more of my friends in the day and Parker - my adorable godson. I would have gotten a run in or a workout..while I was doing either of those or both I would be also spending some time with the Lord, I love talking to Him when I am running!
So there it is- - now if I could just get those things to happen on a more regular basis that would be awesome.

since there's a blessing for everything to be enjoyed, then sleep or naps are one of them. baruch atah adonai ajdfa;l fjaslkfj skfjd (that meant blessed are you Lord our God who allows us to sleep)

we're not praising roofs now are we? that doesn't seem to add up with the Shema.
