Daily Thoughts

So my DM has been handing done "Today's Thought" and the manager has been putting them on the back of the daily schedule.  So here are the first two that I thought to grab and post.  I am going to try and remember to get some more, I don't know if the DM comes up with them on his own or not. But here are the ones from Feb. 5th and 6th.

"Today's Thought
 All of life is wrapped up in this one simple truth, true happiness and inner peaceis only found in a relationship with Jesus.  We will go through many different seasonsand times in our journey through this life.There may be times when we have a lot and there may be times when we have little.There may be times when those we love disappoint us and times when they bring us great joy.  There may be times when we do not measure up to our expectations of ourselves and times we have great confidence.  There is one thing that will always remain andwill never fail and that is God's great love for us.

Live today thankdul for your personal relationship with Jesus. Remember what He has done for you through the cross so that you can experience true happiness that is not based upon ever changing circumstances."

"Today's Thought
  There are times throughout our lives when we feel like we don't measure up to other's expectations of us or maybe we have been hurt so deeply by someone that it has caused us to feel unlovable.  But, God sees us in a completely different way.  He tells us though His word that He loves us with an everlasting and unfailing love. He knows every detail about you and there is nothing you can do to make him love you more and there is nothing you can do to make him love you less.

No matter what happens to you of how others you encounter make you feel, go in confidence today knowing that your creator, the God of the Universe has a great love for you. Let Himbe the deepest love of your heart!

'Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removes, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shakedn nor my covenant of peace be removed,' says the Lord, who has compassion on you. (Isaiah 54:10)"

Late, but finally

I actually got the results back from my blood work on Monday, (they told me Wed or Thur, but worth the wait).  I had to go in and have blood work done to have my medication renewed. For the most part it's doing it's job. My gloucse number for the day was 94 and my HA1C was 5.6 so I'm not considered diabeetic, though I'm sure they are still considering me borderline.  But the medication I take isn't for diabeaties it's for my PCOS, which is what the doctor and I believe are keeping me and the hubby from having kids. I agree with my Grandma and he will be a GREAT dad, we just need to have the kids to prove it.  Keep us in the prayers!

So also while at the docs found out I gained some weight, okay I know not all scales are the same but I was CCCV and now I'm CCCXI,  not much, but still working on it.  I have a few virtuals I have to catch up on and get done. this was  busy last couple of day for virtuals.

Walks

I'm not a big fan of combining one walk for multiply virtuals, but for some odd reason I find myself having to do it this month because of the weather.  Like today I will combine an actual walk with 2 virtuals, and we'll see if me and my hubby and get in a 5k or 2 tomorrow in our travels.  I might get another one in today and not realize it,  It all depends on how much we get out and walk.  I'll keep you posted!

Bullying Awarness

I thought this was a great walk to support, having been "bullied" growing up.  If I can help stop the number of kids that have to deal with what I dealt with, then I will.

I slipped on some ice and it made me think "I get knocked down but I get up again, you ain't never gona keep me down"

Chilly Cheeks 5k

So this morning at a brisk 9 degrees without wind chill I completed my Chilly Cheeks walk.  My worse time yet at 1:25:26, BUT I got out and did it.  While I was out walking my husband was still sleeping.  I think part of my problem is that my right hip and knee keep acting up and causing me pain.  I thought I had a good pair of shoes but maybe not as good as I thought.  So I think I'm really gonna have to invest in a GOOD pair of shoes, and if I'm smart I'll do it Friday before the walk on Saturday.

New Month

So it's a new month, do I feel like I got done what I wanted to get done for January...nope not really. I got most of the walks done that I wanted to get done. Between the weather and being sick, it wasn't easy. So I crammed in 13.2 miles one weekend because of the nice weather. Last month I had 11 runs, 10 of which were virtual. The month I have at least 19 runs, maybe 20, 18 being virtual runs. I'm a sucker for good causes. March is looking pretty full also, not as full as February, only 13 as of right now for March and all virtual. There's a couple at home races that I might sign up for it depends on work. April sees me traveling to MI and possible doing a 5k or 10k there, just waiting to hear for sure. But let's focus on getting all of this months runs done before I start worrying about the future.

Walkin streak 11-13

Not as much walking as I would like this week so far.  I have very minimal walking and more cross training. Today was freight day at work, S...
