365 Days of Thanks...Day 44

Day 44:  I am thankful for almost 70 degree weather in March!

A few weeks ago I started training for my first race.  This year, it will be the BolderBoulder.  In past years, I have done a Colfax Marathon race but I have decided to focus on the BolderBoulder this year.  I am excited that today is going to be nice and warm so I can take my training out to the sidewalk instead of a treadmill!! 


(I realize that I haven't done a thanks everyday but I will be going till I hit 365!)

Oh what a headache!

I just love this quote-
I am waiting to celebrate!
I realized yesterday that I haven't written in quite some time.  Part of it is that my thoughts are a little cloudy, the other part is that I have been in a weird place. 


I have had this cold for about two weeks now.  It started with some mild stuffiness and the normal sneezing/coughing of a cold.  Well, the stuffiness and other typical cold stuff has subsided but the cough and the headaches are still around.  I wake up daily with them and end up in some coughing fits.  The other day I coughed so bad, I gave myself a migraine.  I am feeling better today, but the headache is still lingering.

I have had a hard week this week.  I don't know why and I am trying to remind myself that everything is going to be okay.  My heart knows that it will be alright but my head needs to do a little catch up.  Mondays are always hard.  My love goes off to work in the morning and I am alone in my apartment searching for things on my computer.  It gets old really quick.  I do have my runs, bike rides, and yoga to keep me somewhat sane, but I miss talking to people everyday.  I see the ladies in the leasing office (they are an awesome bunch) or other people around the complex daily.  But I miss getting up and going somewhere and having a purpose.  I don't ever want to go back to the place I was at in my last job, that was just awful.  I have put that behind me and all those people behind me.  I didn't realize just how petty and self-centered the whole place was until I left. 

 
I am a firm believer that everything in life happens for a reason. I know that the path that I am on is the right path and I am in the right place for my life.  I know I am meant to stay here, not only for my love but for some other reason.  I may not know the reason right now or I might never know, but I know in my heart I am in the right place. 

I have a set of amazing parents.  Both of which I talked to yesterday crying and upset over certain things.  They have been my biggest cheerleaders and greatest supports through everything I have done in life.  I am so proud to call them my parents.  I miss them daily.  I hope one day I can do something for them like they have done so much for me.

If God puts you in it, He will get you through it.  I just have to remember this and remember that God is always there for me too. I know one day all this will be put behind me.  My love and I are growing stronger together through all of this.  If we can make it through this, we can make it through anything! 

Just keep praying and God will put me in the right place at the right time.  Just have to keep the faith!! 

Love above all and above all Love!!
