Bummer we don't live closer. Good luck with the job search. I'm really proud of you for making the hard decision of not doing the marathon. I'm glad that you are able to do what's best for you right now. Doing a prayer run has got to feel so empowering and fulfilling. I used to do that same sort of thing when the boys were young and we were walking 3 times a day just to get out and calm the kiddos down. It was a time that I found myself looking forward to. I'm sure it will also help you feel closer to your friends and family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-12282849268148561222007-08-29T11:00:00.000-05:002007-08-29T11:00:00.000-05:00Lacie, I know the blah master too.

Then the next day he's usually gone, thank goodness!<BR/>Well, even in your blah day, you were an encouragement to me. Thank you. I have often prayed while walking on my treadmill, but my mind trails off and I don't focus on praying for others. Today I took your idea and prayed specifically for each and every one of my friends, their families, and every person in my family. Wow did it make my walking zoom by! My 30min. timer beeped before I was finished praying... so I finished the rest in the shower! Thanks again.

I had a blah day myself TODAY! It is tough with two kiddos or any at all for that matter. The kids are great but life is just rough sometimes when you realize that EVERYDAY is a SELFLESS day! I TOTALLY understand the running thing. I had planned on training for the White Rock half (to get back in shape) but I just can't find the time (or energy)! <BR/>Know that I am thinking of you. We can pray for each other to fight through the BLAH days! I can't believe it........ 1 AND preschool!<BR/>WOW!<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>JJodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06096162004978525443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-16553453910612009482007-08-28T09:19:00.000-05:002007-08-28T09:19:00.000-05:00Sorry for the BLAH!!

You are amazingly strong and have handled all of these things with grace.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure K. will love his new routine, and you will too. It may be a great way to meet some more moms and kids in your area.<BR/><BR/>Prayer runs sound awesome! Great idea for the time spent--and your track is ideal for serene views--except watch out for the horse trailers! :)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12841514486769130103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-4834033993133007752007-08-28T08:38:00.000-05:002007-08-28T08:38:00.000-05:00Lacie--I'm sorry you've had such a 'blah' day.

Anyway, I'm excited for K. in that he's starting a new school. I'm sure he will make friends right away. I'm sorry the running 'thing' has been such a dilemma lately. I'm just glad it has been resolved for you and that you feel peace with your decision--anything that puts you and your family first when they need you is the right decision! I think the running 'prayer' time is an awesome idea! I will definitely have to try that the next time I get out and run! I just want to let you know how impressed I am with you and how well you have been handling the transition. I know its hard moving to a new place, but I think you are doing so well!! You are such a remarkable woman and I am so blessed to have you as my friend!mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470230923008517878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-49545010269881208032007-08-27T22:17:00.000-05:002007-08-27T22:17:00.000-05:00love the prayer runs, you can always pray for our ...love the prayer runs, you can always pray for our family, my big boy, my daughter at home, and my 2 nephews too.

I wish I could enjoy exercising. I just can't get motivated. Talk about BLAH!<BR/><BR/>I know K. will love preschool!

I have them often. They are of unknown origin and the only cure is to just be blah. Or roll with the flow. I love your idea of the prayer run. Be sure and add me to your list. I have specifics but you can just generally throw my name around if you want. I drove through Aledo / Weatherford on Saturday and thought of you guys.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11686089269970132855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-18443060965698974172007-08-27T16:16:00.000-05:002007-08-27T16:16:00.000-05:00when we moved here i didn't know anyone and there ...when we moved here i didn't know anyone and there wasn't anyone at church really my age with kids at home. preschool was the best thing for us. that's where i started to meet other moms and found out about playgroups in town. don't feel blah about it! maybe it will work out like that for you too.Shakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523068694149199847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7903795890054503790.post-81670762393763234452007-08-27T15:36:00.000-05:002007-08-27T15:36:00.000-05:00I definately know what you mean when you say Blah ...I definately know what you mean when you say Blah days. I have had those as well. It is funny you mention birthday parties because I love doing great big fun parties as well. But we just moved and it was my son's b-day in August and I thought we need to plan a party and then I realized we don't know that many people (the joys of moving). So instead I made a big list of all the fun things I could think of to do and eat. I let my son pick two. It turned out to be one of the best birthdays ever. I think this time is really helping us grow closer as a family. I'm sure you will have a wonderful day with your son.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455588185946106714noreply@blogger.com
