What is this?

I know it is weird, but this is a blog post! I know we don't see them often. They are lurking in the  recesses of my mind. Playing little games and then running off and hiding when I go looking for them. But I caught one and here it is. Todays blog post

I started using Nike Running and I am trying to figure out how to share this with you. I hate that I can't figure out newer technology. So I will ask Becky and maybe I can connect it next week. The point of course is I am moving more. It is showing. I lost two pounds this week! YAY me. But I did something else this week too. I cleaned out my fridge, my cabinets and pantry. I got rid of so much stuff it is stupid. My kitchen is naked lol. But that's ok because there is a lot less temptation in there.

I have been working out hard. Last week I was working out, pushing myself. Doing things I hadn't done before and it was so hard, but friends were pushing me and I started to cry. I cried because it was hard, but mostly because I was embarrassed at the lack of strength, my fat, my weakness. I cried because I was ashamed. So I had a small pity party and I got up and  did it again. I will  never be the person I want to be if I let the pain and discomfort stop me. Just have to keep on keeping on, even if it make me cry.

I had 2 sick kids this week. Lex was home Monday with a soar throat, fever. blah, blah. Took her to the Dr. it was NOT strep. She went to school Tuesday and was home sick Wednesday. I was proud of the fact she went to school Tuesday because there was a really big Biology test and she didn't want to miss it. Thursday Austin got sent home from school sick. Damn flu. The whole shebang. Fever, vomiting, sleeping, body ache. headache and whine. 2 days of this. Oi. I have a sore throat and don't feel so awesome, but I am not going to tell them. So Shh!

The weather has been beautiful. I worked in the yard the past two days. I love yard work. It is so nice to see something nice come from the hard work. Now if I just  felt that way about housework. I HATE housework.

Well I am going to go do laundry. Boo! And vacuum, Boo. Someone save me.

Time for a prayer. Dear God thank You for today. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for the sun on my skin and the  wind through  the clothes line and the muscles to make a difference in my yard. God, please be with those who are struggling. Please be with my sister and guide her, she needs You and loves You and knows You are there. In Your name we pray. Amen
