It's my birthday....it's my birthday!
So, this is it. I have thinking about this day for a couple of months now. Today starts my re-everything. My first committment is my health which includes being active and mindful in my exercise and eating. I am ready for this challenge. I know I am jumping wwwwwaaaaayyyyyy ahead, but I actually thought...could I, someday, run a marathon? A little one? After reading Ali Vincent's book "Be It, Believe It" I feel a teensy glimmer of hope. She wrote about trying everything at least once. I wonder......
For now, I will stick to the 30 minutes a day. That is enough of a challenge for me at this stage. My devotion this morning was about PREPARATION (there is a "re" in there!)
Ephesians 2:10 (New International Version)
10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
2 Timothy 2:21 (New International Version)
21 If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.
They both speak loudly to me. This first one made me think of the role model I will become for Olivia who watches me and repeats everything I do. The second one made think about the possible marathon some day...
A journey of my fortieth year. A recommitment to myself and those I love to be a better me.
About Me

- Your 31 Bag Lady
- I am starting a journey that I call "RE" which means that after listing areas that I want to change or improve, I have decided to attack them with gusto to become the Me that I want to be. True to form, I was on fire for the re-newal but started procrastinating around month three and now I have three months before the big 40 arrives. Procrastination in my middle name...or rather, Tina is procrastination's middle name. See? Right there? In the middle? Tina.
