It has been a full weekend.  I am pooped.  Friday night Nick had some friends over from the club he is in at school.  WOW!  Were they loud.  They all seemed to have a good time.  It turned out to be quite an experience for Tj ha ha.

I barely slept Friday night and hardly ate through out the day Saturday.  I felt really out of sorts and exhausted.

Last night Joe had a couple of friends over.  All the boys had a good time together.; all 6 of them...Yikes!
Joe, Justin, and 2 of Joe's friends took a walk to the park, which is just 2 blocks away, to play for about 30 minutes before dinner.  On their way back to the house, a  car pulled up a long side of them and stopped.  in the car were 4 men.  The driver, as he was reaching toward the back seat, said to one of the other guys , give me that gun.  With that, Justin took off running and Joe and his other friend stood there.  The guys ended up taking off.  The boys were so shaken from this.  We of course called the police and filed a report.  Although this situation was pretty upsetting, hearing these 4 boys tell the police what happened was pretty amusing; even the officer had a tough time keeping a straight face.  After the questioning, as the police officer stood up to leave, one of Joe's friends said the, "By the way, none of the men in the car had their seat belts on, except for the driver." 

Went to the beach this weekend for a workout.  Geez Louise!  My legs are beyond tight today; I can't remember the last time they felt like this. I was in so much pain playing softball today.  I was catching so I was squatting a good part of the game...which did eventually help...but it really hurt in the beginning.  I kept feeling this terrible pulling behind my knee. I can only assume it's from the sand. We did lots of running...it's a good thing I've developed a love for it. I will say this, there's nothing like coming home from a grueling workout and receiving an encouraging email from your trainer...it truly makes all the difference for me, and many others, I know when struggling with something.

I'm not sure if I developed a true love for running though.  I think it's more like when a guy, or even a girl in some cases, is attracted to someone and they date mainly to have sex with them.  Once they get it from them, they dump them; they date them more for the challenge.  I think once I get this half marathon done, I'm dumping running ha ha.  Either that will happen or I may just keep doing it because I accidentally fell  for it...we will soon see.  It's exactly 5 months from today.

My eating was okay this weekend to.  Starting today, each Sunday I will do an 18 hour fast.  I haven't fasted in a while, so the first couple of weeks will be a challenge but I really feel pretty good when I do it.  Along with that I will be back to strict Paleo and avoiding pork. The key for me is not to think about.  I have found that when I am on track with my eating I automatically revert back to clean eating anyway so....

Looking forward to hearing back about some things pending.  So much going on but so little to say about them.  I get anxiety from just thinking about the change that may come.  I need to not focus on what may be and stay focused on the here and now...take everything else as it comes.  Whatever happens is God's will...I can only pray and be faithful that all will be fine.
