Growing Hair Is Hard To Do.

I had a migraine last week and when I had finished getting sick in the bathroom, almost instantly the gross symptoms of the migraine lifted.  I opened the bathroom door and Jamie was sitting at the dining room table.  I felt instantly bad for her that she had to hear me getting sick, I looked at her and said, growing hair is hard to do.  She laughed.  It is really hard.  Growing hair.  I have a new appreciation for short hair.  I actually have a "full" head of hair, it's just really, really, really short.

I went out today to do my normal 5.75 km walk.  I don't think I could run at this point at all.  2 km into it--I wanted to desperately turn around and come home.  I was out of breath and my feet were completely numb.

I decided to continue.  I slowed my pace and continued.  As I went along I pushed myself back to my normal pace.  As I turned around to come back I was completely done.  I actually thought about sitting down and resting, but I continued.

As I started the last kilometer, I felt I could conquer the world....the last 500 m...not so much.

I walked into the house and I was a hot, sweaty, out-of-breath mess.  Max said, "you went running?"

I had to admit that this effort was just walking...but it looked like I had just run 5 km....

I know that I have a lot of ground to gain back.  I feel a little down about it all, but I have to tell myself that my wind will come back, I will run that stinking Times Colonist 10K this year!

On the cancer front--I have an appointment for lab work on the 21st, a meeting with the Medical Oncologist on the 28th. They are giving me a 4-6 week break and then we are going to do some scans.

On the bored front--I pulled the knobs off the cupboards in the kitchen and cleaned behind them yesterday.  That's bored.  So, you are looking at the newest youth leader at Colwood Pentecostal Church.  I will more than likely be the Grade 10 girls small group leader, and I am looking forward to being at the Fall Retreat that is in Duncan.

I am not sure if I am supposed to be a youth leader or to help with training up new leaders--I am still listening--I want to do what God wants me to do.
