Can't Every Day be Sunday?

I'm so glad the clocks got set forward over the weekend. I love having more daylight!!

Well, thankfully that day I wrote about getting sick-that was me sick! I thought it'd be worse the next day, but I actually felt a little better and was able to train legs hard the next day. I had a couple nights of coughing, but besides that I felt pretty good!

Saturday night after church, Matt and I went out to dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary that's coming up in a couple of days! I love getting dressed up and going out on a dinner date with my husband. :) 

After dinner, we came home and had Reese's no bake for dessert-one of our favoritest treats! We were wanting to go out of town someplace for our anniversary, but we're still waiting to find out how many vacation days Matt will get...so who knows when that will be!

Anyways, yesterday was a beautiful warm day. We went on our first ride in the jeep with the doors off! I'm so glad the warm weather is here. It's going to be in the 70s all this week! THAT makes me so happy you don't even know. Winter is over!!

I was thinking yesterday....I wish every day could be a Sunday. My Sundays are for sleeping in, bacon and eggs for breakfast, hanging out with my husband, not having anything to do, enjoying the weather outside, lounging around the house, whatever. My favorite day! :)

Oh yeah-one more thing. I have decided that I'm finally going to take the NSCA test to get my strength and conditioning certification(CSCS). I have put it off for 5 years! So that means I'm going to have to start studying because all that stuff I knew while studying Exercise Science in college I have probably forgotten!

People always said That time would heal the pain But how can that be When mine still remains? The tears still fall At just the thought of you So I know that what they say Just can't be true As the years go by I miss you so much still  No matter how much time passes I know I always will How are you not here To ease my hurting heart? Never could I have imagined We would ever be apart My world has been shattered A piece of me is gone And all I can do is pray For strength to live on I know that one day soon I will see you again I just have to try to suffer through And make it until then

Putting My Heart Out There

Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea...

Why?

Why? Why do I care so much?  Why do I make sure they brush their teeth at night so that they don't get cavities? Why do I spend my own money to buy them clothes, toys and decorate their rooms, among other things?  Why do I do 5,000 loads of laundry a week to make sure they have clothes to wear to school? Why do I make sure they go to church on Sundays so that they'll be raised to know about Jesus? Why do I try to give them chores and responsibilities so that they will turn out to be decent human beings? Why do I read them a bedtime story at night, even when I'm exhausted? Why do I clean up after them constantly and cook for them and try to always have healthy snacks and food on hand? Why do I go to their sports games and practices, just to feel like the odd man out standing there awkwardly with their bio mom? Why do I give 100% of myself and make so many sacrifices for children I didn't birth? Only to be insulted and told hurtful things? To be made to feel like I'm ...
