3.2 for 32

Well I did it!! I signed up yesterday for the 3.2 mile run in remembrance of the 32 victims of the tragedy at Va Tech. I am sooooo excited to be a part of this event. Now granted I have not ran 3 miles in a very long time so that is why I signed up for the jog/brisk walk section. I know I can do that and even if it's a struggle, it will be very worth it. Keep me in your prayers. Now, I gotta go get on that treadmill of mine, after I clean the dust off ;)

The reason I have not blogged

I have been asking for a lot of prayer for A#1 and this is why. For the past 2 months W.B. and I have known that this was on his mind and this was a decision he has been wrestling with. Well, his mind is made up and there is no more wrestling. The Blaine family is now a part of a whole new family, The National Guard. A#1 will continue with his education at LU but is now a proud member of the US military. He has changed his focus from commercial aviation to military aviation and is pressing forward with whatever God has in store for his life. Please continue to pray for him and for us.
This could be him one day!!

Getting started and getting simplified!!

I have been working on some purging in this house for about 2 months now but it is taking me FOREVER as I have just lost my motivation. Well not anymore! I am going to participate in this time of organizing and simplifying with several other bloggers out there. This week the choice is either a bedroom or living room. My choice is our living room/family room. We have a formal living room but it is currently full of the things I have decided to get rid of so far which are in tubs and boxes and the family room is really where we "live" and what needs to be done first. I will try to remember to take some pictures as I go mainly because that helps me to see the progress I am making. It's a perfect day to begin because the weather is fantastic and the sun is shining and that is motivation in it's self!!

There has been a lot of changes going on for the Blaine family and I am anxious to share with you but need to wait just a couple of more days until things are finalized but I will ask that you just pray for us as we settle in with some decisions being made.
