Things running through my head today...

I feel guilty when I miss Bible study. I don't worry that God is mad at me, I just feel like a failure. Maybe this is a reflection of how I think God views me. I know the truth, but sometimes feelings can be overwhelming.

I can't stand watered down personalities. I love boldness in people and personalities. I love it when people stand up and speak the truth! If you don't like something, you should say it (tactfully of course) if you love someone you should say that too! Being politically correct
and being "safe" is just boring.

Smart people with useless information are so easy to love. I just love hearing them ramble on about useless facts.

People hurt other people because they are angry or hurting. Everyone acts the way they do for a reason. We have to be forgiving of this and not take it personally, pray for them and love them no matter what.

I love music and dancing and I've slacked off lately because of the guily in my life over other things. I should have never deprived myself of these two things as a punishment. How ridiculous.

I'm more loving and forgiving than I ever thought I had the capacity for.

I just saw my pictures from the last triathlon. They should have disqualified me for wearing spandex. I looked like A manatee coming out of the water, Napolean Dynamite on my bike-complete with open mouth and A Weight Watchers poster child for the run. I run like a dork and now I have physical proof. Heck no I'm not buying these pictures. It frightens me that they exist. The pictures I had in my mind were so beautiful, so inspirational and poetic. That is now RUINED for evermore!

I'm disturbed that my 5 year old has a crush on the 'bad boy' at church. She likes the bad boys, just like her mommy. Lord help us!

Courtney has such wit and personality. I just love that about her. I think we're just alike-hahaha!

Harper is so smart! I swear it's all the fish I ate during pregnancy.

River is my laid back boob man for now. He's good as long as I'm holding him!

That's Mrs. Triathlete to you!

This weekend was my first Triathlon! Okay, it was a mini and there were a lot of very out of shape people, including myself, but it counts! It was the training ground for 'would be' athletes, 'wanna be's', 'has beens', etc. I did actually see some people there that had sponsors on their shirts, but they must have just wanted to feel good about themselves that day because they easily won. I have another coming up September 12th and I want to shave some minutes off of my time AND get some sponsors. Yes, you read that correctly. I wonder who I could get to sponsor me? Maybe the Trussville, police dept. They do owe me some money after the ridiculous traffic ticket I paid.

I'm hoping some of my girlfriends will do this one with me! It was me and some guys from church. They were all way ahead of me, so I had no one to hang with!
