100 Days!

OK, so who has seen, read, heard, noticed, and/or ignored the trending "100 Days"? 

Well, if not, let me give you a very brief overview... You pick something-- anything-- and commit to do it for 100 days straight.  Many people will document this commitment through a photo or video journal.

Whelp, I have jumped on board.  I am taking the 100 Day Challenge.  I have a dear friend from college who is my personal accountability partner.  We are going to (hopefully!) keep each other straight-- at least for 100 days!

And here is what I am committing to do:

1.  Spend quality time with my Lord.
2.  Spend 30 minutes (or more???) exercising.
3.  No yelling at anyone in my family (I was going to just say "my children", but then the Lord convicted me of the importance of making sure to model respect and compassion to my hubby as well!)

So here I go!  I hope to post my daily commitment.  If anyone has any suggestions or words of encouragement or would even like to join, just let me know.  Misery loves company.

Just imagine if every Christian, everywhere, committed to spend quality time with the Lord for 100 days.  What a difference we could make!

Oh, I'm so proud...

Well, I am so very proud of myself.  Let me just share my big ole' accomplishment of the day:

I did my own little version of "jumping rope" at our DAY LONG "Jump rope for Heart" day at school.

As the music teacher, naturally, I was in charge of running the "music" for the event for each grade level so as to keep the kiddos going and to have some "energy" for the group.  (Really?  Eight-yr-olds NEED added energy?!)  Anyway, I was in the gym the enTIRE day and decided to just hop along with all the different classes throughout the day.  Did I actually use a ROPE?  Uh,  that would be "no".  Let's just be thrilled that I was doing the up and down motion and the swinging of my hands/arms! :)
