roots, habits, and celebrations
May 10I’m visiting family in Columbia City, IN this week. It’s good to be home, but at the same time, there’s a lot to be said for Bloomington. But that’s next week. Until then, some thoughts:
My habits change quite a bit when I come home. I’ve driven about 20 miles a day so far this week compared to my usual zero to two, in Bloomington. I didn’t think twice about using some disposable cups and plates. I’ve walked less than a mile since Sunday. And I’m drinking instant coffee.
I’m not sure what to make of this. Am I reverting to my “home face,” exposing some latent bad habits, or just adapting to Northern Indiana culture? Something for me to think about as I live the rest of this week out of a box.
Two celebrations:
- Jill ran incredibly well at the NHC track meet yesterday (photos soon-ish)
- A postcard (also from PostSecret): I AM STILL ALIVE.
And a conversation-starter from PostSecret: “Silly”
Be well.

Read your comment on Church Marketing Sucks, and migrated to your site. You have some great thoughts. I’m sure I’ll be back around to read every once in awhile.
