Before After

It is not time to give up

Well last night I was watching Kathy Griffin show she was at the Walter Reed Military Hospital in Washingto DC.  It was so sad to see so many military men and women injured with so many different ambutations.  It was so difficult to watch -- I was crying.    I said to myself it is not time to quit.  It is not time to give up.  Look at those men and women although they knew they were in danger they still went to the war fought for our country and are coming back to thier lives trying to make things work out.  How can you make things work out when you are missing your leg, both legs, one arm or one arm and a leg.  Learning to walk again all over again.  Wow !! 

I don't consider myself  very patriotic and I sure don't like our administration but God Bless Our Troops and bring them back home soon.

And that show made me see that well it is just not time to give up.  I have to dust myself and pick myself up and keep moving at least I have my legs and my arms and my health.  I am not that well but I saw a light last night.

Have a great weekend !! And thank you to all my EP friends.  thank you so much.

Let's start dusting

Both of us.  Together.  We CAN do this!

Hahahaha!

That made me laugh!  A big hell to Tatum.  Sometimes it feels that way.  But yesterday...she got a blue bee on her behavior report.  (that's the best you can get.)  My big kindergartener. 

Come on.....you can do it!

One day at a time girl....baby steps, baby steps. Thanks for your comments on my blog! I really don't have a lot of details about the walking challenge....they really didn't say what the incentives are at this point. I think they're waiting to see what the response from the employees is. This challenge runs from Sept 1 - Nov 7 and then if it goes well, they'll have another one in the Spring with bigger and better incentives! Its just fun talking to everyone in our small office about how many steps they took the day before etc. I feel confident that I'll get my 10,000 steps today. I just got back from the gym and I'm at 6550. I'll no doubt have to get a walk in this evening too if I want to make it.

Have a great day!
