Out of Sorts

I know, I know. One post a week is not enough for the adoring fans. I apologize. Last week was a bit ummmm...kooky and busy. Or maybe nothing interesting happened to talk about. However, I do miss these gals TERRIBLY: This was the summer Bible Study gang. So wonderful. We did 'The Patriarchs' by Beth Moore. It was wonderful. A history lesson with a lot of insight as only Beth can do, well, God writes the fabulous outline and she simply adds some vibrant commentary. Highly recommend if you need a study. These girls are my prayer WARRIORS and we prayed eachother thru a LOT of stuff--some of it good stuff and some of it crappy stuff. Everyone was honest and open and raw. Love that...it is always my prayer for the Church to be that way--to be that way with fellow believers. Great. Anyway, last week we had family BBQ to end the session. Missing you all terribly and cannot wait to start again. One gal already delivered a bambino since then and we have 3 on the way....

Aside from that, I have felt pretty funky. It is so rare for me to feel this way. I am normally happy or happier. However, I had to stop teaching my classes (kickboxing) last week and it has really effected my emotional state. My pubic bone (sorry, guys, it is what it is) was really starting to hurt when I was doing all my jumps and kicks, etc. Albeit, the jumps were merely a centimeter off of the ground, they were jumps to my big self. Anyway, I finally decided it was time to "clock out". It was such a frustrating thing for me. It was a challenge for me to go as long as I did and I have felt so so so physically healthy this pregnancy. And BAM...a bruised pubic bone. Of all things. I think for the most part, I just miss it. I feel like I am not doing anything I am good at--not using my talents. I love to workout and I love people. I know most of you are thinking--well, you are being a good mama to Mug, but honestly at almost 8 months pregnant, that is even questionable on an energy level! Sorry, this is so wha-wha Debbie Downer, but it is honestly the way I have felt. The good thing is that Jennifer had her baby (she is in the pic above) which always lifts a cloud! My friend, Kathryn also had her baby boy today! Babies are a blessing! Life is a gift! Cheers to you all...
