sensitive
I don't want to get into that because it's a pretty sensitive issue. I've done it before.
arms issue spent time wait
I don't want to wait too long to get started. I think some time will need to be spent on the process. It's a pretty big issue to get your arms around.
He snatched me, ... I just couldn't do it.
ball father point pull rattle
He's nothing like his father at this point of his career. If we can rattle him, we can get him to pull the ball down and get him on the run.
blocks change stepping stumbling
how to change stumbling blocks into stepping stones.
work
I could have done better. I have to work on my landings.
hippie pants
I could get new pants if I weren't such a hippie freak.
happiness happy
I could be happy here. I really can.
call hits snow until
I call it the 'Hurricane' because you don't see anything until the snow comes up and hits you in the feet. It's rowdy. It's crazy.
almost benefits compromise council easier handle knocking majority mixed move neighbors particular people process reasonable running sort start system talking walking
I can see the benefits of going to a sort of mixed system - where a majority or almost a majority of council is at large, but it is easier for people to start the process of running for council if they only have to run in their ward, and they can handle it all by just walking around and talking to their neighbors and knocking on doors.

anyone looking
I don't necessarily think anyone is looking for an apology.
effort habit
It takes effort to promote what you do until it becomes habit.
pride names creating
[T]he final step in becoming an urban farmer is the naming of your farm, even if your name is simply for the few pots on your front porch. Creating your name helps to build a sense of place within your neighborhood as well as pride in your accomplishments. By naming your farm you give it a life of its own. Be creative and come up with a name that inspires and makes people smile, like my friend Laura's "Wish We Had Acres," the Fairy Tale inspired "Jack's Bean Stalk" or my "Urban Farm.
school reality garden
I envision a day when every city and town has front and back yards, community gardens and growing spaces, nurtured into life by neighbors who are no longer strangers, but friends who delight in the edible rewards offered from a garden they discovered together. Imagine small strips of land between apartment buildings that have been turned into vegetable gardens, and urban orchards planted at schools and churches to grow food for our communities. The seeds of the urban farming movement already are growing within our reality.
