I'm moving!!!

Hey Y'all!

I'm moving.... to www.RunningHolm.com.  Since starting our Sweat Sessions and adding more recipes and fitness tips I figured it would be easier to keep them in one central location.  I found word press a little easier to manage how and where I wanted stuff.

A Big Thanks for 5 years of business!!

Hey Y'all!

I hope your day is WONDERFUL!!  A lot has been going on here the past few days!  We up loaded Sweat Session # 3 to face book https://www.facebook.com/yahoo#!/photo.php?v=10200830660354968&set=vb.117809434914466&type=3&theater  and to You Tube http://www.youtube.com/user/HAAdventureBootCamp for the ones that don't do face book.  Let us know what you think of them.  We are working on the next few now, so we would love some feedback! 

I have to say I love doing them.  I had someone ask me the other day why I make them.  They wanted to know why  I'm sharing so much info for free.  I had to ponder on that one for a moment because I love what I do.  I really feel like this is my ministry.  Yes, I need to pay bills but in the end it is very rewarding to help people to take the right step toward a healthy lifestyle.  I'm not sure why God has me doing this right now. I'm not sure where He will have me go from here.  I was in the middle of bible study today and ran across Psalm 119.  Give me understanding so I can obey your law with all my heart.  Direct me in the path of your commands for there I find delight.  Turn my heart toward you oh Lord and Turn my eyes away from worhtless things...  I would like to know the future but for now I will take one step of faith at a time and trust the plans He has for me.

We also are celebrating Humble Area Adventure Boot Camps 5 year Anniversary.  So hard to believe it's been that long.  I started out driving over an hour at 2:30 every morning to Kingwood to start my business.  Now I live close by work and enjoy every day of it.  I'm so grateful for every one who has supported our business.  THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!  You are allowing us to do what we love.

Have a great day and remember to SWEAT!!

If you love learning you love the discipline that goes with it.  Proverbs 12:1

Recently I have started looking into taking an online course so I can become a life coach.  I started weighing out my options and praying about it.  I'm trying to decide if it's worth the money and if I have time for it.  Then I ran across this verse today in my bible study.  Bam it hit me.  It's not about the time or the money.  It's about the discipline.  I have time for books, facebook, and t.v. I would just need to be disciplined not to get wrapped up in those things and focus on something that will help me be a better fitness expert. 

I know God allowed me to go through so much last year and I'm excited to see how He will use me to help others.  I would love to be able to help people with cancer change their eating habits so the effects of all the drugs aren't as painful.  Maybe I could be a life coach to people going through some of the things I went through last year.  It's hard having two small kids and always being sick.  I know some people can't be joyful and thankful during times when you think there is no end in sigh. 

Only God knows the plans He has for me and I know they are greater then I could ever imagine.  Until then I will take it one day at a time and discipline myself to study and continue to learn ways to be a better wife, mother, friend, daughter, sister, and fitness expert. 

Ways I Can Live it...

-Make a list of things I need to do and discipline myself to do at least one a day.

-Find an accountability partner.  Tell them my plans and ask them to check on me a few times a month. 

-Commit to it for at least a week.  I may like the results and find it's easy to fit studying in.


PS I signed up for the Sea Brook lucky trails marathon on March 17  Pray for me to do good.  I've really been enjoying running again!!!

Still going Strong!

Hello Everyone!

I have had a bunch of emails asking me how I am.  I have been quiet for a little while because I think I'm trying to digest all that life has to offer right now.  I don't know if you know that my Dad passed away on January 28.  That was crazy on its own.  He was living with us for several months and after my first round of chemo I told him to go home for the weekend and take a break.  The next day he passed away suddenly. 

This has been a hard year for us and yesterday was really hard (Father's Day) but I decided to spend the day enjoying my family and thanking God for my husband and sweet kids.  I didn't want to be depressed and lose the day I do have with people who I love and are here with. 

I'm tired a lot but it has become my new normal so I just keep going.  Some days are better then others.  I sort of feel ready to go back to work but know that I need to stay home and get some extra sleep so I can keep up with my kids during the day.  They certainly keep me busy!!

On a good note I have hair!  Not much but enough to get bed head!!!  Corey's health is good.  No more trips to the E.R. and thinking he is going to die!  His heart is good and we now know his small heart attack was stress induced so we are working on keeping the stress down.

I have 4 weeks left of chemo!! Yea!!  and my sweet friend's MIL gave us a few days stay at their BnB in the Hill Country. Corey and I will cram a few days with the kids and then have a night to ourselves for our anniversary.  We will be married 8 years on July 24.  I start radiation that week.  It will be daily and last 6 weeks.  From there I will have a hysterectomy.  Reconstruction will be some time next year. 

I have to say through all of this I have grown so much spiritually and mentally and have become even closer to several of my friends.  It's so nice to know that you have friends and family who will cook for you, watch your kids, clean, take you to Dr, sit with you for hours during chemo, cry with you, laugh with you, plan fundraisers, kids bday parties, bathe you, blow dry your hair, pray with you, take you to emergency surgery, and just be there for you in a drop of a hat.  Wow is all I can say.  I feel super blessed.  They have all earned an extra crown in heaven! 

God is Good!  I can say He hasn't left me alone through all of this and I don't know how I could get through all of this with out Him. 

I Ran 3 Miles!!

Some friends have asked me to post this since they aren't on facebook soo..... Here it is!
