Well Im getting ready to go to bed the night before my first marathon!!! We are in Dallas, TX getting ready to run the White Rock. Becca and I went to the pasta dinner at the Hyatt Regency and we got to sit with some Kenyan runners!!! We also got to see the New York Giants because they are at the Hyatt getting ready to face the Cowboys tomorrow. He is a video from our hotel room!! Ill do another after the race….
I hate finals!!! This is the first final that I have had since returning from the military….I think. I could be wrong but it seems that way. I pulled an all nighter. It started in the library. Moved from the library to journey with Becca and Jake. Now it ends in my office. Case Study and final studied for….wish me luck!!!
….one month to be exact!! I have been a terrible “Blogger” over the past month. I have definitely not handled my busy schedule perfectly over these past few weeks. Blogging has not been one of my priorities and for that I say I am sorry.
I love my blog. It is a place for me to come and put my thoughts down and share with you what I am thinking, feeling and what I have been going through. I promise to do better!!
On a better note I am nearing my goal of $3,850 for my mission trip to Africa this month. I never imagined last new year that I would spend this new year in South Africa!! I will be updating more in the next few weeks as the time nears for my departure.
Keep me in your prayers!! God has done an incredible job in providing the money so far. Thank you so much for those of you that have given so far!!
I am also blogging from my brand spanking new MacBook for the first time!!! I am sure you will see more candids like this in the future!!
