Well, let's see....

I was talking to my friend Margie last night, she's my neighbor, sister in Christ and Friend! God knew what he was doing when I bought that house : ) It's funny, whenever I think about the things I don't like about my house, you know, start COMPLAINING, I always think about it being part of God's plan - Chris and I moving in next door to Margie and her daughter. It's pretty neat... anyway, I seemed have got a little side tracked.

So, I was talking to Margie and she is going to run a 5K in May, and I have ALWAYS wanted to run a 5K, then a 10K and so on.... well, I figured since my first Goal of weight loss I am pushing for in May, what better way to help me stay on track than to start training for this 5K. So guess what people, I'm doing it and I already started workout number one on the training plan last night - cool huh!

I went to the gym last night, walked at a good pace for 20 minutes and then went into the 20 minute training - so all together 40 minutes last night and right over 300 calories. So yesterday I burned around 500 total with the morning exercise and night.

While I am telling you about all this great news, I figure I would throw in something else, NON-Weight related..... I have been having some issues with my truck... it was starting to shake when I drive it. Well, I was a little worried, because we all know how car repairs and be EXPENSIVE and OUTRAGEOUS!! As I mentioned, I was worried at first, but then I thought, GOD, I am NOT going to worry, it's in your hands and you have kept me safe so far... you know our financial situation and I am just going to trust you - this is what I prayed as I dropped my vehicle off at the repair shop. I told them that I thought it might be my tie rods (Money pit), but wasn't sure, my truck started shaking once it got to a certain speed and then would stop... he said he would take a look. He called me like 20 minutes later, "nope, it's not your tie rods, I am going to rotate your tires and tighten up your wheel bearings, because there is too much give in your tires, and that should fix the problem - $55 for wheel bearings and only $18 for tire rotation, Total = $73.00 - GOD you ROCK!!! You are so amazing!!! You answered my prayer almost directly on the spot!! Thank you Jesus!!

Sorry this was so long - but I HAD to share : )
