Tuesday, October 27, 2009 | A General Update story

I walked for 2 miles this evening. I wanted to run part way but my hip was sore. Must be arthritis. I think I overdid it yesterday having run for most of the way. It was probably meant for me to walk. It gave me a chance to reflect on some things.

 

My internet business is very slow at the moment. I have been putting more time into it hoping to improve things. I had to take money used to purchase inventory and use it to buy groceries this week. Not good. I also skipped an AA meeting this week because I wanted to save gas. Even my wife is getting nervous and not making so many trips into town. I think things will improve. They always have since I stopped drinking and drugging. I just need to have more faith. A few prayers would also help/

 

Someone told me today that I was mostly responsible for them not committing suicide. I got all choked up. Another reason to keep pluggin along!

    Hi Bob,
    I hope things pick up for you for work. Keep walking it will do you wonders, I joined Weight Watchers seven weeks ago and have lost twenty pounds as of today. I also now walk two miles in the morning and two miles in the evening. It keeps my head clear. When I started walking I could not even walk to the end of our driveway without having to stop and rest. It gets easier everyday. Keep up the good work and you will feel way better if you get yourself in better condition.
    Take it from another Mainer lol

    These are tuff times for everyone, my friend. It tests our faith, & gives life perspective... Are you tything at Church? By giving money "you don't have" you are challenging God to provide enough that you can spare it. It is the only time in the Bible He says is OK to test Him! I have done so for the last several months, on a fixed income no less, & I always have "enough". Try this & see what blessings God will surprise you with!
