I am watching the Olympics. My goodness, to have years worth of hard work, hopes, and dreams, to boil down to one brief moment in time. Just watched this beautiful young man run the 400 m. He is the first Masai from Kenya to ever run. He practices on a dirt track in his village. And he set a world record and won the gold! That is just amazing. And scary.
Well, I am no Olympian, that is for sure, but I am sticking with my blog, and with my efforts to make the necessary changes to have a life that is not filled with fear and avoidance. In that vein, I had a minor appointment with my doctor today. She just wanted to check in with me about my meds , and my weight I think. That seems to be a subtle subject of interest to her. (I had lost 4 # since I saw her last...not that I was dieting!). In true Cindi fashion I decided to try and get out of it. My blood work last week was fine, I was feeling good, I just didn't want to go. But when I called I was told I COULD skip it, but she probably wouldn't be pleased. I decided to go...and it was a really great appt. One of my best! She asked how I was and I told her about my blog. She suggested a book she thought I would like, (which explains why some people find it necessary for quiet time, and alone time.) So it was worth it.
The s'mores were a BIG hit with the kids at school as well as at home with my boys. Oh yes, and I continued to face the finances today. I called and made some adjustments to a couple of things I was planning on paying, making sure I would not dig a hole at the same time. I am still working on it, so it looks like we;ll make it through another week! :) Unfortunately, the young man I tutor was not feeling well, so I lost out on that $50, but hey, it comes, it goes. I am going to take a minute and try to find something I wanted to share with y;all...brb
Okay, there have been a few quotes I have pinned on pinterest. This isn't one of the more attractive ones...but it really is what I am feeling today..
Thanks for letting me share today, have a wonderful day tomorrow,
Cindi
That's the spirit! Glad the Doctor's appt went well. Sometimes when we face the things we dread they turn out to be a gift.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments MaryAnn. Did you stop blogging? I just went to your blog to double check who you were, :), cause I know a few MaryAnns, and it is so beautiful. Your photography is amazing, your writing is wonderful, I wish you were still blogging. (Or are you somewhere else?) Thanks for all your comments. I appreciate them.
