Why am I doing this?

I have found that I am in need of a project. I also have several goals that seem to be nagging me lately. 1. I need to get in shape. Although round is a shape, it's not so much what I am looking for. 2. I need to read the Bible more. It has yet to become a vital foundation to my faith on a consistent basis. 3. I would like to write more. It's something I greatly enjoy, but simply do not make time for it.

So I have decided to take the next 90 days to simultaneously complete the P90X fitness challenge, Read the Bible in 90 Days, and Blog about my entire experience. Viola! This condenses all three goals into a single project.

Day 55

Workout- Cardio X
Bible Reading- Isaiah 66:19 - Jeremiah 10:13

It has finally happened! It has taken 55 days to get there but the day has finally arrived. My alarm went off this morning at 5:45 and I woke up without that feeling of annoyance that I normally feel. I got right out of bed and I actually wanted to work out this morning. I worked really hard at it and was drenched with sweat when it was all over. I even enjoyed the process! How crazy is that? The weirdness pursued as I sat down to do my reading for the day and I really enjoyed that today as well. What has come over me?

Breanne and I started discussing last night how we have both been in a funk lately. I think we all have those times and we are both definitely feeling that. I think adjusting to life with a baby is wearing on both of us. This is compounded by the fact that if I'm in a funk, it puts her in a funk, and then it all snowballs. As you have surely read over the past few weeks, you can see my funkiness in my blog. I just have not been very chipper.

So I am hoping to change that. I've been praying for change and maybe this morning is a glimpse of that. I also had the joy of being able to put on my "skinny jeans". In fact, I am wearing them today. Yesterday I was wearing a pair of size 36 jeans and today I am wearing a size 33! Woo Hoo!
