Me and my bestie are running a half marathon next weekend.
In St. George.
I haven't trained.
He hasn't either.
It will be great.
That means no sugar.
I need to lose like 5 lbs.
Then I can run faster.

On another note...
Dad came and "tucked me in" tonight.
He told me if I was a little more loving I would enjoy life more.
He said I should hug more.
I'm going to try this.
So if we are walking down the street and I barely know you, but give you a hug...
I am trying to be more loving.
Why not, right.
People are so into themselves lately.
What happened to the good old days when people would give you the shirt off their back, or the shoes off their feet?
This is my vow to be a kinder person.

p.s no nursing letter yet.
p.s.s I registered for classes- consists of a. phsyiology b. drawing c. painting
d. water media and techniques (aka watercolor). perfect-o schedule.
p.s.s.s can someone please just tell me a life plan. pretty please. thanks. mission? nursing? moving? work? artist/writer/business? boys?

Juli you are so cute!! I love your dads very wise words of wisdom. Thanks for sharing. I think I am going to take that into my life also. So if I just up and give you a hug then you will know why. The 1/2 marathon will be fun. You will do great and you don't need to lose 5 pounds at all. Your too thin. Everything will work out for your future. Sometimes you just have to learn something while you are waiting for the answers. Enjoy the Journey!! Life is too short. - I love ya girly!!

Hugs all around!! I agree with mom you definitely don't need to lose 5pounds because if you did it would probably be muscle and you would run slower...you are perfect the way you are! Good luck sounds fun!

I ditto everything Stephani and mom said. :) Especially about the taking joy in the journey! :) You'll find out before you know about the nursing program and about what life holds in store for you, you just have to show the Lord your patience... and improve in the meantime (good start on the hugging thing!)... WOOT!

Who is your bestie?? I'm so out of the loop... please call me!! I love you dawg!
