Good morning my DU family,

I woke up impersonating a babies butt this morning, I'm a little behind.

Today is a great reminder that we can only do what we can do. I didn't sleep well at all last night, so instead of risking driving while too tired, I just adjusted my plans. I'd rather pay for an extra day than to come to harm by trying to do too much.

As I leave Minneapolis after a wonderful memorial service and church service Sunday, I leave with a heart full of love, memories, gratitude and awe.

Please give us a day filled with opportunities to do our very best, especially when understanding what we can best do.

Have a beautiful day DU, sorry for the short greeting, but please take your time, do what you can, and most importantly, stop when you must.
Love, John
