YIKES! I just looked at the photo, the color is drained, the watermelon was a deep red, and so on. But you get the portion size, I hope, so I will leave it posted.
Now doesn’t that fruit tempt you? This is the fruit that comes with fish if you choose that option rather than fries at John G’s, across from the beach in Lake Worth. Leon grabbed it for our lunch the other day. His fish was in a container just slightly smaller than this one! I only ordered fries and cole slaw. Of course, he shared his fruit, he bought it because I had been bugging him to order it instead of fish and fries all these months. He had leftover fish, fries, and slaw for dinner tonight. I posted a photo of his breakfast there back in September. I guess it is about time I posted the link to their site: John G’s, 33 years of breakfast and lunch service!
Now to the heart of the day:
I seem to have this love hate relationship with Shelly’s Only the Good Friday since I tend to forget it is Friday or I do things like this morning and manage to lose an entire Only the Good post! Maybe it is just that I am so easily distracted anyway and have been quite busy trying to find a new place for us to live that meets ALL our needs and is dirt cheap, make the decision on whether to change our life style in a major way sooner than planned, and renew or delete my blogs immediately as they are about to be deleted if I don’t renew. Add to that trying to remember I am not longer retired full time but working part time and I am just all over the place. (OK, so the latter comes naturally.)
It must be the distracted thing, because I LOVE Only the Good Friday, I am excited Shelly at This Eclectic Life has made it into a meme, finally. More importantly, I believe in posting about Only the Good at least one day a week, I used to do it and had planned to make it a meme, but knew my personality would never keep it up. It needs someone like Shelly to do it. So, check it out here. Join in, I would LOVE to read what you think is good in this world.
My original post today was about being in the moment and seeing how much enjoyment I find in otherwise frustrating things like hunting for a house, organizing things, working. But that post disappeared So, let’s change the focus from me to all of us! (Perhaps, there was good in that missing post.)
You don’t have to like your entire project or job to get some enjoyment: just be in the moment as you are working so you CAN recognize the parts you do like and focus on them first. Already you have found good in your day.
You could, then, take it a step farther and try to be in the moment when doing a part of your project or job you don’t like. Why? Because if you pull yourself into that crummy project and look for the good in that moment, you may find parts of the disliked project you actually don’t mind, or maybe even enjoy when looking at it without emotion. Just a thought, y’all.
Feel free to check out what good Shelly and her readers have found to write about this week!
