Friday 7-15-11

It seems that the older I get, the faster years go by. Wasn't it *just* January? I'm sure May was only last week. Over and over again I find myself asking "where did that time go?" and "What in the world did I do with it?"

At noon we'll officially be halfway through the month. Can you believe that? I can't.

July has been a month of awesome growth for our little family unit here. Dearest's health has improved dramatically - at least, it seems that way. With him on the valium at night to keep muscle spasms from happening his overall quality of life has greatly improved. Hopefully when the perscription runs out we won't find that it's only the valium. I have faith, though.

My personal walk and relationship with God is growing...slowly. I still hit patches where I can't feel his presence or that connection I crave so much, but I'm getting better at having faith and doing what I know I should anyway, instead of getting mad and giving up. My personal development is also continuing...slowly. But continuing. I made a decision today to stop letting myself deviate from my eating plan, and I think that's going to have effect in a big way. So far I only took that one walk this week, but I suppose we'll see what happens with that. As I develop discipline by making the little decisions (like deciding that no, I'm not going to make myself a big plate of french fries for lunch) that discipline will make it easier to do the bigger things - like taking a walk.

Our business is also growing. The difference isn't very perceivable yet, but we've grown as a couple and as individuals so much in just the past month, and gotten our hands on a bunch of new tools, there's no way the business can't grow from here.

This is just the start of my day, but I think it's going to be a good day.
