Five Things Friday & A 30th Birthday Workout


Happy Friday!
1)Soo...I'm 30.
That sounds weird to say. Ha! It's really not a big deal to me though, since I still feel and act like I'm 20....and that's all that matters, right?

For my 30th birthday, everything in my workout today was 30 reps. It was fun!


2)I got a free birthday donut today from Krispy Kreme! Yup, I did. And it was delicious.

3)I have a new favorite thing-caramel rice cakes. Put some peanut butter on top, and oh... my gosh. My new bedtime snack!

4)Here are some of my fave articles I've read over the last couple months. Check check check 'em out! Good stuff.

Stop Dieting
20 Ways To Train Smarter
How You Can Stop Being a Cardio Bunny Today
5 Reasons You Aren't Getting Stronger

5)I'm loving this song right now....I heard it at church last weekend and had to look it up. I just think it's so pretty, and I love her voice!



Have a great weekend !

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDSAY! You are a beautiful, kind-hearted, strong woman who is a great example of being honest and vulnerable, of growing and not staying stagnant, and of being a woman who empowers others and is focused on the stuff that really matters. Cheers to the year ahead!

    And wow - your arms are looking HUGE (I know you'll take that the right way!)... Really a difference from not too long ago!

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
