mesothelioma: noun medical
a cancer of mesothelial tissue, associated especially with exposure to asbestos.
which leads us to the question/s: what exactly is my mesothelial tissue? & now, exactly how much asbestos have I inadvertantly been exposed to?

This DILO's theme was "Hands"...
so I went a little "Hand" crazy!

there's more where that came from...
In the end the day went wonderfully well. I went over to Mrs. Shear's to watch Survivor (hooray for another season worth pouring over!) Found she had a God-given kitty... cooed over it muchly, and snapped cute shots!
As the early evening progressed, JDM called and invited me to join him & other boys at 6th Street for a scrumptious dinner. Jason, Chris, JDM, & myself talked at length over great meals, and eventually Jason went his own way... while the rest of us grabbed a movie & met up, again, at JDM's (surround sound, baby!) The night wore on quickly, and I found myself being the first to bid adieu... with oh, so much to do the next morning!
...enough already!

get lost... or not!
Liz had the new Nagreen car when she was in town last... it has the nifty GPS unit in it. I was all excited to test it out. Unfortunately, we live a bit outside the well trafficked areas. So when we wanted to have it tell us how to get to TacoBell, it wanted to send us to PTown!
Still, the system is sweet! You can see where you are, in real time, on a nifty map... as you drive about! Even better than that, they don't have to be pre-installed into a vehicle. Now you can add such a system to whatever car, truck, or mini-van you want!
there's more where that came from...
You can get all sorts of Sat Nav from Currys. They carry a wide range of satellite navigation systems, from Garmin to TomTom... there's something for everyone! (They even have a fairly affordable option, for those who don't have the funds to invest hugely in a unit!
These would surely come in handy for my next road trip... save all men from the need to stop & ask for directions... and even ease the stresses of day-to-day drive searching in a bigger city!
...enough already!

I'm oft shocked & amazed at how much time gets sucked up/consumed by day-to-day life. I am a creature of habit, and unless I stick with that very habit... I get way off course!
Presently I am juggling too much, outside my long-term habitual goals, to stay afloat as I'd like to... I head out the door way too early, don't get back home until much later than I usually expect, & all the inbetweens are merely a mess/blur of times & places. I have all these plans, goals, and idea[l]s of how my evenings (or mornings) should look; all I mean to accomplish, and yet little comes to fruition.
I'm honestly looking forward to a bit of time "off". Albeit simply a week, I could seriously use it right now to regroup, catch up, and just get my head about me.

Meanwhile, God continues to moves greatly in my heart, mind, & varied circumstances. He provides for every need, and even simple perks, I could possibly imagine! I love seeing Him move, mold, mend, and motivate.
Tonight I took a moment to myself to just bask in His presence... and do my contrast soaks, give my hair some special treatment, girlify myself, and yeah! All at once. Now, I'm settling in for just a simple night. Made myself a[nother] toasted english muffin with goat cheese & fresh tomato slices for dinner/snack, contemplating a little ice cream & tasty tea for later... and cozy comfies all evening!
...enough already!
