Curveballs

How do you handle changes of plan? What is your response when you were planning on one thing and something else happens? Usually I don't do very well. I get frustrated. I think I'm doing better though as I add years to my life. Yesterday my flight was cancelled due to weather and I had to stay in Colorado Springs for the night. If you have been reading this blog recently you know that I am in stewardship mode so when I tell you that I stayed at a Motel 6 last night where I locked the door and locked and loaded you won't be surprised. I spent $100 bucks in 4 days (counting the stupid $22 tax for my rental car) and when I found out I was going to be forced to stay another night at my expense I was determined to go low. $33 for the minivan, $10.50 for mandatory fuel fee under 75 miles driven, $9 for dinner at Fazoli's, $5.75 to see Transformers (more about this later) and a whopping $40.45 for the bedbug offering, "well used", no wifi Motel 6. I spent $100 in 4 days and then had to spend that much in a day...gross. Surprisingly enough I wasn't upset. Even Holly noticed and made a comment about it. Maybe, just maybe I am making some progress.

Alright enough about that stuff. Transformers. Spectacular. I'm a dork I know but I used to love Transformers when I was a kid. I had three different Optimus Prime trucks. I loved it. The movie really was pretty cool.

I won my fantasy game this week. It was close. Came down to the last 3 minutes of the last game. Good start. Addai for President.

It has been a great weekend here but I'm ready to get home...hopefully my plane boards in 20 minutes like it is supposed to.
