I am a little hung over. I went to two parties yesterday.<br /><br />Both were great! Thank you Kirsten and Phil!<br /><br />I ate a lot and I drank a lot. Today I am paying the price. As I drank last night I left the van<br />at our parking spot near the train station. I walked (staggered?) home because of the alcohol.<br /><br />Today I will burn off some calories by walking to get the van.<br /><br />I have been inspired by the <a href="http://thepeakconditionproject.com/">Peak Condition Project</a><br /><br />I think I know a lot about basic nutrition and exercise at this point in my life (I am 47).<br />It isn`t a lack of knowledge that has led to a gut that got me a "D" rating at my last<br />physical in Japan. It is a lack of motivation and a lack of focus.<br /><br />I have been highly focused on trying to get some <a href="http://www.how-to-teach-english-in-japan.com/free-english-course.html">new side businesses going</a>.<br /><br />Plus just raising our family (we have three kids) and teaching at a university and my<br /><a href="http://www.eikaiwa1.com/">English School </a>has kept me busy.<br /><br />But a bout with skin cancer reminded me how short life is. Time to get on with it.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy the ride along with me!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lpg6rYxtNhc/TR-9rnqYKVI/AAAAAAAABUc/tUCBKLECo1c/s1600/swimming.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lpg6rYxtNhc/TR-9rnqYKVI/AAAAAAAABUc/tUCBKLECo1c/s320/swimming.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /> I`m on the left.

He lives away from Sawan in Denpassar, Bali to work.<br />My brother and I met him through a good Japanese friend of mine,<br />who operates a spa and Chinese restaurant on Bali.<br /><br />Many people from the north of Bali must migrate south in search of work.<br />Gede is one of them. I have committed to sending 100 dollars a month<br />to Gede to help his village Sawan. Please find it in your heart to do the same.<br />They also need English books for their kindergarten. Probably anything<br />you would be willing to donate to this very poor village would be appreciated.<br /><br />A visit to Sawan to see her beautiful waterfall is well worth it.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">If you`d like to donate:</span><br /><br />You can send English books, money orders, or cheques to:<br /><br />Gede Sumaardana<br />Jin.
