Sisters

I went out last night with my sisters. The last time we went and spent the night somewhere without our kids or husbands together was in 2001, two months before 9/11. So it has been a while. I had a blast. Micci's GPS got us all kinds of lost and we found out that there are a million Starbucks in Chicago. I walked a good 3 miles easy. Well it wasn't an easy three miles for me. My sisters just breezed through. I on the other hand was struggling to keep pace. But I kept up. I never had them stop for me, even though my foot was all kinds of swollen from some stupid thing I did in the dark the night before. 

My sisters went to get Dunkin Donuts in the morning and let me sleep (Thank You!) well on the way back up to the room they stopped to look at the pool and took the last 8 floors up on foot. I hate stairs. HATE STAIRS!!! I scream. I hate how my knees hurt with each step and I hate that I cant breath after a flight and I hate the fact I would never have been able to keep up with them. So now I am challenged. Not by my sisters but by me. I am going to get better at stairs. I am going to become friends with the precor machine at the gym and I am going to tackle this bitch. Also, my sisters are training for a 10k. I am not that industrious right now. But I will start training for a 5k.

I feel so good. I have goals. I have plans. As soon as I have the money I will have a trainer. Watch out 2014! 

Dear God, Thank You for today. Thank You for my sisters. Amen
