Update on me



The Holidays are upon us, busy, busy, busy. Yesterday I went on a field trip with Rebekah's 3rd grade class. First we went to Canyonwood Nursing Home and visited with the seniors there. They prayed with the residents and sang some Christmas carols to them. It was pretty touching to see those children boldly go up to "old people" strangers and ask them if they could pray for them. They all layed their hands on them as they prayed. After that we headed to the Cascade Theater for a production of "The Elves and the Shoemaker." It was a small production, however the kids seemed to enjoy it. After the Cascade we headed back up to the school and I dropped off some students and picked up other ones for a field trip to the bowling alley. Let me just say that it was a very busy day. While I was at the Nursing home I received a text message from my husband saying that he couldn't find some important business papers that he needed right away, so I had to leave the group and rush off to take the papers (which were in my purse,) to him, and rush back to the group.


So today I told him that I just wanted to stay home all day and bake. (didn't happen.)


My weight this Monday morning was 166.0 Not too bad as I took a week off of pushing it hard.


I really need to start the next round! I feel like I need that competition to keep going.


I did make it to the gym this morning and ran 3 miles and then biked for 10 min.


My house is SLOWLY getting decorated for Christmas. This year I went up to Castle Lake and Brandon and I stomped through the woods and found a tree to chop down. This was something that my family did when I was growing up. I haven't done that in about 25 years! It was fun.
