QUOTE OF THE MONTH:
Victories, Big and Small:
- Getting more comfortable talking on video
- Being more open and praying for God's will and timing
- Getting back on the WW track after a week of emotional eating
- Officially down 40 pounds as of yesterday!
Partial Successes/Areas for Improvement:
- Standing up for myself when I feel triggered by weight-related comments
- Being fully obedient to God
- I have somehow injured my back this week, and I'm trying stretches and ice and heating pads, and may be going to a chiropractor soon... but prayers appreciated for that to improve! My "summer of strength" might be a bit delayed. lol
Memories:
- T-man's tennis banquet + helping him apply for different jobs
- Chet's client event + my all-day seminar + catching up with Sarah!
- Wednesday walks with Kristin (and the presh baby turtle that joined us)
- Swims with the Parrishes and the Whitakers
- Helping a close friend through some family drama
- Judge taking us for a belated bday lunch
- Good talks and texts with Chet and Sarah
- The four audiobooks mentioned HERE
- The usual podcasts!
Lessons Learned:
- From personal experience - Words matter. Small criticisms and small kindnesses both have a bigger ripple effect than most people realize.
- From personal experience - It is far easier to choose to stay on the right track or make a small realignment than to jump back on when you've totally derailed.
- From writing a paper on group leadership - I love writing - this was our biggest paper so far, and I had fun writing it. And I'm not certain how God will use it, but I want to grow in my leadership skills!
- From Christine Caine - Trust that God has new and better things ahead for me, and choose to fully be here (be present) now!!
This = my last post until my next recap on June 30th. I'm posting it a bit early since I'm closing the blog for a month. Hope you've had a good Memorial Day, and I wish you a wonderful month ahead!!
