Exercise today---3.25 miles in 49 minutes, this included a very slow 2 mph 5 min warm up so really I did 3.11 miles in 44 minutes (maybe?). It was dark and cold out so I did the run on the TM.

My question for all you runners…regarding the 5K I will do on 1/10/09...signed up tonight so it is official----Do I need to warm up before I start the run so I am not walking the first few minutes? I am not fearful of this 5K, just concerned that I may be one of the slowest, but I know I will fin...

11:30 pm--

We got home from Arkansas around 6:00 pm tonight. It was a great trip, but feels really good to be home!

BEST THING THAT HAPPENED OVER THE HOLIDAY--My 16 year old daughter was “saved”…she gave her life to her Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Hubby’s niece was the one who shared this experience with her…she truly is a “changed” child! Will it be a cure for everything, no, but she has apologized more in the last 3 days than she had in the last 3 months. Both of us have...

I am really struggling with the fact that she doesn't even text back when I send her a simple, i lv u - text. My heart is breaking. I know she is a teenager and could care less, but as a mother it is the hardest thing I have ever had to do...live each day with a child that it...

Better day, started with quiet time and running...

Thursday, December 18th 2008

This morning was an accomplishment…I was running in the rain, put on a ball cap and took off. Did 3 miles in 38 minutes. Not fast, but my fastest yet. I am not very good at doing the C25K by the rules of the minutes. I increase the running time a little more than they have on week 4 I think. I am running and enjoying it and see no real benefit in stopping just because the piece of paper says I should. If something go sore, I my knees hurt, I would stop and I only did an extra, what, 8 min...

SOMEBODY STOP ME!!!!!!

The stress is getting to me, I just ate 10 pcs of the candy I made over a week ago. In the entire week I have not eaten 10 pcs and now I ate 10 at one time. 540 calories. Doesn't put me over yet, but dinner will be very small. I had mexican last night and was over by 600+.

I forgot to sign the dog up for boarding next week and now I have to have a pet sitter come to the house for 6 days....UGH! Hubby will not be happy, so I ate.

Have done -0- Christma...
