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 58

Workout- Plyometrics
Bible Reading- Jeremiah 33:23 - 47

As long as I am in confessing mode, I may as well share another one of my deep dark secrets with you. I may risk much ridicule and scorn with this, but I feel that I need to get this off of my chest.

I don't really like summer. Gasp! In fact, the older I get, the more that dislike begins to fester and I foresee it eventually turning into hate. There, I said it. As a kid I used to love it. You didn't have school and you could go swim at the pool every day! What is not to like?

Now I'm an adult and all the magic of summer has faded. I work every day and it is so hot. The only outside activity that I get to do now is mowing the yard. I don't go on any vacations and I don't know anyone that has a pool. This morning I was outside at 7am and I was sweating! Nothing about that is ok!

So there you have it. I'm the freak show that doesn't like this time of year and I already find myself longing for the crisp fall air. I day dream of shades of oranges and reds in the trees. I want to go to a corn maze and the pumpkin patch. I want eat candy corn and pumpkin pie!

sheesh... if I'm already like this, imagine what I will be like when mid August hits! Bleh!

    Just for the record... you can make pumpkin pie anytime. I am pretty sure that the store sells all the ingredients necessary all year around. This probably goes for candy corn too. LOL...you crack me up you freaky autumn lover.

    I think that you need to move to the pacific northwest.
