Well this is a mom week. The kids are home with me for a week and off to dad's again. You think that that would be no big deal but adjustments have to come about. I have to plan a actual meal. I have to try to run before they get up so that when I get home from work we can do some fun stuff. I too want to be the fun parent once in awhile. Not just the one that has scheduled bedtimes and scheduled chores for them to do.
Running this morning at 430 and I felt like I was back in Florida. It had just rained. The air was thick and I was sweating from the get go. It was dark but I had my trusty lite on to show drivers where I was. Not that I needed it. Doesn't anyone get up anymore? It truely is the best time of the day. It is so quiet. And by the time I ended my run the bird where up and singing.
I ran with a different outlook today. My music was quiet and reflectful. Talked to God alot. When it's quiet, it seems like he is more apt to listen. In church yesterday the pastor talked of forgiveness. Forgiveness of oneself, of God, family and then of everyone else. That can be a tall order. It is funny how he mentioned the oneself as first. I think for me that can be the hardest thing to do. Looking at all past mistakes and wondering why we can't move on sometimes. Forgiveness? Is that what stops us? I took some time to forgive yesterday. I am not sure that there was any impact there BUT... I did it and it is time to move on!

430 is my down time,but i will be motivated by your persistance for an active lifestyle.
forgiveness is a growth thing, it is a maturation process, a healing of the soul if you will.
