I have some of the greatest friends on the planet. And fortunately for me, some of them go to church with us here at Boiling Springs church of Christ. We all decided a long time ago that we wanted to join a gym together, because misery loves company, right? Well, unfortunately, we didn't all have the money to do it right away (and by "we" I mean "I"), and to benefit in the deal this particular gym was having, we needed to all pay up front for the year. Thankfully, I was able to save up enough, and with money I got for Christmas, was able to join the gym! I have gone everyday since joining now, which was 12/30/09. I really really really love it. I've never ever worked out really before. I mean, sure, I've played in a backyard football game, or an intramural softball game (if there were no other warm bodies to man the plates), but to have a routine and work at it and stick to it and most of all, ENJOY it, I'm totally new to that. I'm really loving it and hope to stick to it. I love how proud of myself I feel when I walk out of there knowing that I'm doing something really good for me, but I really love how proud my husband is of me, and since that is my second goal in life, I am happy for that.
This is going to be a fabulous new year, I can tell already. We got pulled over on NYE on the way home from a friends' party. We were trying to get home before midnight, and so we left with about 15 minutes to go. We were only about 3 miles from home, when we got blue lighted! Yep, that's right. We got a pulled over. Now let me give you a little background on this... the party we came from was at a church friends' house. The theme was "The Roaring Twenties", so we were all decked out in costume. Dan was dressed like John Dillinger, complete with handgun. So as we are waiting on the cop to come to the window, he's frantically trying to hide the phony gun, and I'm saying "Dan! Dont look suspicious! Just show him it's fake!". Chaos, but he managed to get it successfully under the driver's seat before the officer reached the car. Luckily, he was just looking for drunk drivers, and since we hadn't drunk anything harder than Sprite, we were off the hook. But yes, we spent midnight NYE with the blue lights flashing. So romantic!
I hope you all had a great and safe New Year's! Love you all!!
Please continue to pray for the Grays.
