Hello August


Summer is rolling on. August is here. At our house that means birthdays, anniversaries, school shopping, and the state fair. Fun, but busy.

I've also started running. I started in May, actually. I used this plan, recommended by my amazing, running neighbor. She has been a huge inspiration and encouragement to me and I can't recommend this plan highly enough for anyone interested in running or (like me) who's had bad experiences with running in the past. You really can do this. Trust the plan and give yourself permission to go slow and easy. Get good shoes. I didn't until recently and I'm paying for it.

I need moments to focus on the summer beauty. To re-center and to celebrate the beauty of this season. In the closing days days (for us) of summer and the build up of activity and celebration, here are a few calm places in my house/yard. I hope you can find a few quiet places that refresh your mind and soul this week.

Grace and peace.

Enjoy your beautiful summer days...they go by too quickly. Thanks for your kind words on my blog. I'll need to check out your running plan. Are you entering a run?
