Slacker!!!

Katy and I are so busy these days. It seems we can't nurture any real friendships because everyone else with kids is just as busy.What happened to the days of backyard BBQ's,watching the kids play while the adults enjoyed a beer with friends and had an uninterrupted conversation lasting longer than 36 seconds. I know the day will come when our kids will be out of the house, and we will miss all the chaos.It will be bitter sweet for sure. I am blessed.Thank you Lord for my family,and trusting me with them.

So far I haven't run today.I haven't been very motivated this week.What I have been is tired. I don't know why some days I feel really good and others it's a struggle just to be verticle. I feel like I could run this afternoon, but it's 94 deg out.We'll see.Maybe I will tonight. Katy is struggling with her piriformis issue.She was doing really well for awhile, but I think it will come and go. I think we will wait to see how she does before we sign up for the half marathon together. By the time we get rid of both of our chronic pains, we will have to get racing stripes on our walkers. I wonder if Geritol would sponsor us for the marathon. I can see us now in our polyester jogging suits,thick at the waist from our Depends,stopping every six minutes to stretch. Maybe Ensure will come in pill form by then.  Regardless of how long it takes, we enjoy exercise time together.We'll keep on keepin' on.And off I go...
