Well, I'm not quite in the throes of summer bliss, but it has been quite the wonderful summer nevertheless.
I also haven't made any more Jewish food. I have gathered some good recipes that I can make, but I haven't managed to make any of them yet. But with the help of some great donors, I have made it past my halfway mark on fundraising! (which you can see: http://www.gofundme.com/to-the-Holy-Land)
I have also been retweeted by Episcopal Cafe which made my day recently.
And I am very grateful for my coach and love, Latro, for helping me run in the heat. We ran a 10K last Sunday, so now I have been in a 5K, 10K, and 15K. I am almost able to say that I have run 365 miles in 365 days (I have 26 miles in 26 days left to go). Latro and his parents have given me running clothes, running shoes, a hat, a belt, and loads of encouragement. Its almost like being sponsored! ;) I never would have been able to start running regularly without Latro and despite its pain and frustration (and the days that I hate it), I am very glad that I have been running. It has been very helpful for my lungs, my thinking, and my prayer life. It has refocused and energized me many days when I have been carrying too much around.
And some days there is certainly plenty to carry around. But, I must go study Greek... γ ι v ω σ κ ε ι ς ;
Shalom!
