Weekends are for rest?

Says who. I don't really feel like I got a rest. However, I do feel like my weekend was blessed. Empty nest? Not around my house. We stay very busy, very, very busy. And it doesn't stop when the weekend is over. Jenny and I have lots to be thankful for and sometimes we just enjoy the quiet of the house to realize how blessed we are. Then we are up and running again. Kelley may come home this weekend with the boys!!! If this does not happen it won't be the end of the world, but if it were the end of the world....woohoo!!!!!!!!!

It'll be my first Saturday off in three weeks. I'm stoked!!!!

I had a paper due and I got it written and e-mailed to my Prof. Sunday afternoon. This was a blessing also.

I know that I have not written in a while. I have lots to write about, but I can't seem to get it down on paper just yet. My thoughts are not always legible. Have you had a dream that the words just weren't audible? I mean everything is going along just fine and then, BOOM, just when you really need to hear the next sentence someone is saying, you can't understand what they said? Then the rest of the dream is spent trying to figure out what was said? What? What did she just say? I really just want to know what was said so I can go on with my dream? Did she just say ;alsdkfjo0iw0mnc0w? Because that's what I heard. Well, sometimes, that is what my thoughts are.

Some of you have been cheering me on with my quest of running. Well, I am here to tell you that I have been running even more and a little swimming. Swimming is great, however, I stopped seeing any results, so I'm back to running. As long as my knees and hips will let me anyway. When I started I couldn't get around ACU's running trail at all. For those of you who don't know it is a two mile run to get all the way around ACU. I felt good to get half way around jogging without stopping. Half way was at least a mile. Well I've worked myself up to twice around. On Friday I jogged my inaugural two laps around the trail. FOUR miles. A dream come true for a fat boy.

That's it for today. (I can't always jog that far at one time. That week I had jogged two miles on Tuesday, three miles on Thursday and then four on Friday.)

It'll get better.

Good day to you and I hope your weekends are as restful and blessed as mine. LOL
