Something to the effect of that. :D Speaking of journeys....... how in the world are you doing???? Done unpacking yet? Moved in yet? I say this a million times but I mean it!

I've got 16 miles on Saturday. My long run day. Each week I increase miles and am always amazed and astounded at what my body is capable of! God blessing me with the health to accomplish something I can't wrap my brain around as my legs continue to run hour after hour. Truly amazing.<br /><br />I'm glad my life metaphor is knitting. Oy Vey! With all of the frogging I do!!! I swear I unknit more than I actually knit!! Actually, that does kinda resemble my life. A whole lot of repenting all of the time. Yeah, knitting is a good life metaphor.

Perfect for a power*full woman who knows exactly where her strength comes from. <br /><br />A seven mile marathon!!! I am out of breath just thinking about it. Now you've got me thinking about life metaphors. I want a good life metaphor too. Something about knitting maybe. That would be more my plodding pace.
