Finally Following Through!

A lot has happened in the months passing since my last post. I've taken some personal blows. Usually these would send me spinning backward to the idea girl. Bag of white cheddar popcorn in one hand, a little Ben and Jerry's in the other. Sitting around thinking of all the things I'd like to do. All the people I'd like to become more like.

Who I am today so far differs from that girl. I don't even recongize who I see in the mirror each day. But I do like her. She's focused, driven, full of promise. She's worth taking care of.

Tomorrow evening I'm headed North, to the big race! The first half marathon had to be put off due to lack of funds. I stayed on track and just a few weeks delayed I'll be completeing the 2010 Kirland Mother's Day Half Marathon! (And this one's got hills!)

I don't imagine I'll have many more entries. I've found I don't have a lot of time these days. Work, training, sleep, work and train some more but I'll be back Monday to let you all know I survived it!

I know it! I've been busy and stressed and haven't wanted to put the effort forth to scrible a few words down. It's day after tomorrow! Can you belive it?!
