The continued prayer is, “Lord keep me focused. Keep my mind stayed on You. Help me to bring You praise. I know You believe in me. Please help me in my unbelief. Amen.”
This was a great run and this was the prize: A Coconut Crème cupcake from Sweet Arleen’s. Mmmm….
It’s hard to say which I enjoyed more, the run or the cupcake. Both were sweet and delicious!
It was the evening of the first day of school!!! This is a happy Mom!!
Finally, summer is over! The kids can get back to their regularly scheduled program and maybe I can settle myself into a regular running schedule too.
Jordan needed a chapter book for his reading project, so we had to go to the public library. I love the public library. What self-respecting nerd doesn’t?
The books, the quiet, the relentless order and organization, the endless and accessible information…. It’s an anal-retentive, erudite, Type-A personality, Virgo’s dream!!!
And what can make a great trip to the public library a PHENOMENAL one? When Chris comes with us, and leaves me there so I can run the nearly four miles home!
The great thing about most city libraries is that they tend to be in a really pretty, well kept part of town and ours is no exception. It’s on the same block as the City Hall and the Police Department, so it is not only well kept, but very safe. The trees are beautiful and the walkways smooth and clean. Love it.
A beautiful run! My pace was decent but my main concern was making sure I consumed some calories while on this run because I wasn’t able to fuel up before we left. I brought a bottle of Gatorade and that did the trick. I was still very aware that I was starving during the whole run but it was only about 4 miles so I wasn’t worried about hitting The Wall.
I worked on breathing and form and it was a good time.
When I got home, I was too amp’d up to eat a cupcake, so I took a shower, played with my kids and had the cupcake for breakfast the next morning with my green tea. Mmmm…….
You had time to stop in the middle of eating that cookie to take a picture!!!
ReplyDeleteI love libraries too! The one we have in our little town isn't as nice as the one in our previous town. The selection is quite limited, so that's a bummer.
ReplyDeleteThat cupcake looks delicious!!!!
But now, I want a coconut cream pie!
