Since Debbie has said it so well, I will ditto her as it seems that she and I are in the same stage and area of life. Have to love that! Faith is my pick, with your personal life stories (love them).

Something in-between, or on how the spiritual relates to our practical, everyday lives…. for example, why is it pleasing to God that we do laundry, keep the house clean, cook supper, and all that other “stuff” we do, and where do we draw the line between doing it because it pleases Him, and allowing it to come between us and Him… for example, after the kids go to bed, do I fold towels because we have none in the cabinets, or catch up on the quiet time I missed with the Lord this morning because the kiddos woke up early?

I’m all for mothering but my mothering days are over. I’m all for practical but that’s practical. I’m all for marriage but I’m good in mine. I’m not for spring cleaning. So I go with something spiritual.

Blog your life. It in itself encourages and inspires and makes us all feel a unity as mothers with lives!

Hello,

Sorry to be checking in late again. The end of the quarter snuck up on me this week so I had to get stuff done at school and also, I’ve been reading a series of books by Wanda Brunstetter. They are really good but I have a hard time putting them down once I start. I read all three books in 4 days. I’m feeling better this week so have been better about getting the exercise in but still need to get back to counting calories. I know it worked before when I really kept track so I’m not sure why it’s so hard to do again. I’m glad for the nicer weather too. My son and I took the dog for a walk Sunday night and I even ran a little! It feels good to be able to wear just a light jacket and not be so bundled up you can’t move! My scale is still being wacko so i’m not really sure what I weigh but know I need to be more careful about calories!

Thank God for a beautiful day!!! My daughter had a slumber party last night and after lunch we went to the park with all the kids to play in the sun. We also celebrated St. Patricks day!

we enjoyed our daughters birthday party and surprisingly ate just the one serving of even cake!!!!!

My old pants are beginning to fit better again! And while my child was using the wii I weighed and lost 3 lbs. I did move a lot, cleaning, cooking, preparing, shopping, serving, exercising on hike and karate, and taebo.

Seven more pounds to my first goal. Thank God!
I liked not weighing myself on my scale. I’ll try waiting a bit more to weigh in again.

I am down 1.3 kilograms this week. I am amazed. This past week has been the unhelathiest I have been in about 3 weeks and yet I have lost the most. I don’t understand my body!! I’ll take it tho! I don’t even think I exercised more than I did last week… maybe God is wanting me to learn about moderation?
Have a good week.

I have stayed the same now for several weeks. Guess I’m not really trying as hardas i did in the beginning. I am walking just about daily but I have slacked up on my water. Guess it’s time to get serious about a “restart”. There’s a group in my community starting tomorrow night for a time of weigh in and encouragement/support. Hope this will be an additional help for me. Thanks Karen for the recipe and sharing so much with us.
