April Days

It’s mid-April and the earth is coming alive.  Trees, bushes and flowers are blooming.

I’ve joined a co-worker in taking 10 minute walks outside three times a day ~ invigorating!  We are keeping each other accountable and enjoying every minute of it.

After my week vacation in late March, I celebrated my birthday.  What a blessing the people around me are!  They made my birthday extra-special.  I love that Google does the special "birthday" logo when it is your birthday -- the above was what I got :-)

MS Walk 2013

I survived the cold and wind on Sunday and completed the MS Walk. I did the shorter walk as I have painful memories of heel covering blisters from the longer walk.

Thank you to all who sponsored my walk! Every penny helps; all the money stays in our local area.

As I was listening to my IPod Shuffle and admiring the buildings of Fort Wright, I was amazed at how many young people were walking. There were many people in the age bracket of 15-30. Not that I am ancient; however, I was surprised.

I do know that MS is unfortunately more prevalent in our area than many others. My guess is that many of those ‘youngsters’ knows someone personally.

I give thanks daily to God for my health and abilities that He has blessed me with.

Life is Good

Our Women’s ministry at church is kicking off a 12 week Beth Moore study on the Book of Daniel this evening. My small group tackled the Book of Daniel last year; however, a few of us are going to partake of this study to get another perspective. I am looking forward to it.

I just have to share my new favorite shoes: Merrell-Barefoot. I got them on a recent trip down to visit my dad and his wife :~) They are extremely comfortable and I love the color!

This weekend is the MS Walk in our area. I thank all my sponsors ~ I met my goal; yay! I am praying for little or no wind on Sunday as it will be my first ‘official’ walk wearing a skirt. Of course, I walk all the time; this will just be a bit different.

Praises to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
