TODAY is the official "ONE HUNDREDTH DAY" of my journey.
Confession time: I did really super at the beginning. Probably about the first 50 days were completely spot on. However, I am sad to report that I did not finish well.
Now, I could offer several valid explanations for why I fizzled:
Samuel was sick.
See how pitiful he looks?
*I* was sick...My swimsuit needed... ah... retired...
We had spring break...
There are no words for how happy this picture makes my heart.
I kept trudging on through about day 75, and then something horrible happened [well, horrible for me].
Remember my good buddy MyFitnessPal? Yah, on day 75, I forgot to log in. I lost my streak. Now, that may not be very traumatic for you, but for a list-keeping, chart-tracking, crosser-offer-kind-of-gal... this was: the. worst. thing. ever.
See how upset we are by this tragedy?!
And I pretty much just kind of shrugged it off. But I've decided to head the wisdom of Proverbs 24:16--
"A righteous man falls seven times, but rises again."
So I am getting up, brushing off my backside, lacing up my shoes, and putting my hand to that plow... again.
Ellie has the tractor all warmed up for me!
