my regular volleyball partner Diana always brings COMBOS to

our tournaments – i thinks it’s one of our winning “secrets”.

Today I was at the train station & saw them in the vending

machine & I TRIED to buy them but the machine was broken.

I’ll try finding some in the morning.

Tomorrow I am playing with SUZY. Wish us LUCK.

We PLAN to WIN!

i was SOOOO EXCITED to get “dessert mail” today.
Do you ever get that kind of mail??
It’s the LAST piece of mail you open b/c you KNOW
it’s going to be GOOD if not GREAT!!!
This letter was from my pen pal STEF –
we “met” thru her blog….

“Our decisions ??? even the small, fleeting ones ??? tell a lot about us.???

Here is the story:

???William McKinley, the 25th U.S. President,

once had to choose between two equally qualified men for a key job.

He puzzled over the choice until he remembered a long-ago incident.

???On a rainy night, McKinley had boarded a crowded streetcar.

One of the men he was now considering had also been aboard,

though he didn???t see McKinley.

Then an old woman carrying a basket of laundry struggled into the car, looking in vain for a seat.

The job candidate pretended not to see her and kept his seat.

McKinley gave up his seat to help her.


Remembering this episode, which he called

???this little omission of kindness,

??? McKinley decided against the man on the streetcar.

Our decisions ??? even the small, fleeting ones ??? tell a lot about us.???
