Inspiration

I will keep this short. I am recovering from a upper respiratory/sinus infection. I have new glasses though so I can see better!!!

I have been struggling. I have been struggling with my fitness journey. I have been struggling keeping everyone healthy, and I have just been struggling.

Something that has given me inspiration is a pastor that preaches on Sunday mornings on our local ABC affliate here. He preaches while we are leaving for church, but I have caught him the last couple of weeks due to different illnesses that have been going on in our family.

I encourage any of you that need an extra push, or just need someone to listen to who is caring, compassionate, and speaks the word of God, visit the St. Luke's Methodist Church website. He has been doing a series on in the shadow of the Cross during lent. It is amazing! I especially liked March 8's sermon!

Misadventures of Me!

I clicked over here this morning and read the title to my last post about clumsiness. I wondered how I could have already posted about my most recent fall last Friday when it hadn't happened yet. Then it dawned on me: that post was about my hand. I haven't posted about my MOST RECENT injury. People would seriously think I was an abused woman if these things didn't keep happening in a public place.

I was at church on Sunday. Kinsley was fussy, so I was going to take her downstairs into the basement where the boys were at for Sunday School. I went to step off the first step, and missed it. I was holding Kinsley. I tucked her and kept her on top of me while I slide and rolled down. I landed on the landing seven-eight steps later on my right elbow, hip and ankle.

Luckily, I didn't break anything! I just have some bumps and bruises. And I am not as sore as I probably should be. As I hit the ground, the door slammed behind me, and I moaned and said, "oh shit." I was glad the door slammed. People in the sanctuary didn't hear my words as I fell LOL!!!

With all the incidents, I am going to the eye doctor today. We are concerned that my depth perception could be bad. For some reason, I keep falling, running into to things, and winding up with injuries that are ridiculous! Hopefully, the eye doctor will be able to give me some sort of direction.
