Still Learning Lessons

Well still must be working on the that control thing. Haven't learned the lesson. Weather out of my control. Boy has it changed. Much cooler which is good but windy. Seriously? Whatever happened to 65 and muggy at 5 am. Gone. Wind was good then. Now the water temp has gone way down. Still I continue on. The race is not about winning. It is not about even a race. It is about what I set out to do and doing it. Stomach is starting to feel like knots. Or is that because it is the first day of school. Oh I have one that is just like me. He was up at least two times last night. So many good things I see in my kids and then the bad too. Ugh don't want them to become worrier like their mother. Still working on it. Have come a long way since me and God started to walk hand in hand. But still times when I want to lead.
Looking at all the schedules of all my kids, Joe and his kids, I have to realize my best bet is to take it day by day. There is no way I can do it any other way. None! This is going to be a very big challenge for me. Just going to have to let go of perfection and it may be peanut butter and jelly some days.
Long ago I just wanted to be a mom. Making breakfast every morning, getting kids to school, making sure the house was clean, grocery shopping. Do some stuff for my self before they all came home. But life changed and so did I. I am more than I ever imagine.
Ok four more days til race day. I am blessed. I know it. I can do it.
