Well, I ran the 5K in 28:51. I should have stayed with Jason but I pooped out right after I took a drink of water. Big mistake. It messed up my breathing and made me a little sick and I never recovered. I also learned that little hills feel pretty big. I have never trained on any hills. But, I beat my first 5K time by 4 minutes I think so that's good. I really have a hard time imagining that I'll ever get any better. And right now, I have no desire to ever run again. But I will. I'm just really tired and tense today. I need a massage...and a vacation...and a maid...and money for those things. But our money for the next few years is pretty much already spent.

Hmmm...trying to think of something positive to say...

On Father's Day, we played Texas Holdum' (spelling?) and I took everyone's chips.

I'm really enjoying my summer Bible study, "Restore my Heart" by Denise Glenn. She calls me sweetheart and I don't like that, but the lesson I'm learning is so practical and logical about something so abstract and emotional, by that I mean God's love. It's probably not so much logical to the other women in the group as it is romantic, but it's the logic that is appealing to me as someone who thinks more like a man than a woman. So I'm grasping it and actually applying it in day to day life, which is rare for me. What's even more rare is that, even though I think more like a man, this study makes me feel happy to be a woman, for once.
