Down for the count ...

Whew, what a week ...

I've been down for the count with the flu and it's been awful ... at one point I was throwing up in the bathroom while Gracie was doing a mad pee-pee dance trying to step around me convinced she had to use the same bathroom I was already in, and Matthew was climbing between us to try to help her use the other potty ... I wanted to cry, or scream ... and I think I just ended up barfing more ...

Awful.

I got home from an awesome weekend in Texas on Sunday. Sherry and I ran the Fort Worth Speedway 5k. It was a super race, really low key ... I finished in 34:56 which was my best time yet for a 5k ... slowly dropping weight, I can hardly wait to see what my time will be after another 10lbs is gone ... I am on my way.

I just finished straightening up the house ... whew, it feels better not to have my home be in complete shambles ... I am thankful to have energy back, my tummy is not 100% yet ... but I'm certainly on the mend.

Gracie is napping right now ... and I think I'll lay down too ... I do need to paint though ... hmmm, what's a procrastinator to do?!?!?

Thank you Lord for my time in Texas, for my legs that carried my body faster than ever for the race, for my husband and children at home waiting my return and for my renewed energy this morning. You are so good to me Lord and I am so undeserving ... Your Grace is more than I can even comprehend. Amen.
