I ran a 5K

One year ago I would never believe that I could run a 5K.  I did it today and I had a blast.  Thank you to my friends for allowing me to spend the day with you.  Thank you to my mom who came and took pictures of our craziness.  I loved today.

Happy

I am grateful.  I am happy.  Things are going pretty smooth right now.  I just want to thank the lord for what I have.  I know without him, I am nothing.  We are all given so much and yet we don't take the time to be thankful.  Things are going so well that I actually woke myself up last night by laughing out loud.  It has been a long time since I have really had peaceful sleep.  Maybe it's because I have stopped really worrying about dying and started living.  I have four beautiful children and a husband who I adore.  Life is a gift.

Race-Lessons I am Learning....

Wow, I am learning a whole lot.  These fundraiser races take a lot of work.  I mean hours and hours of work.  I think about it pretty much every day. I am happy though. It feels so great to be giving back to other people.  I am not so focused on the "poor me's" anymore.  I don't have time to sit and get mad at my horrible luck.  I am giving my energy to something positive and I love it.  Service feels so nice for a change.  I am not the one receiving but giving and I love it.  October 5 is going to ROCK!
