I can't believe how long it's been since I have written. Life has been crazy busy and I have been trying to enjoy every bit of it; although, every so often I will think "Oh, I should write about this" and then.. I don't. Since my third surgery I have:
- Gone back to school with the goal of getting my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. I have a long way to go, but I know that with hard work I'll achieve my goal.
- Walked the San Antonio Half Marathon. It took me 4 hours, but I did it. I finished the race. I was training for the Kansas City Half Marathon when my tumor was discovered and I always promised myself that I would finish a half marathon, even if I had to crawl across the finish line.
- Started fostering dogs for the Texas German Shorthair Pointer rescue.
- Spent two awesome summers enjoying my kids at different amusement and water parks.
- Continued to grow bone around my implant.
Some of my goals for the upcoming year include:
- Continue losing weight. When my doctor told me that I probably wouldn't lose any weight until after a year from my last surgery he was right.
- Do a triathlon in April
- Walk another half marathon
- Keep my 4.0 GPA
Before I go, I want to share some pictures of my friend, Beth, and I at the half marathon. Beth lives in Arizona and I am so happy that she was able to fly in to Texas and walk with me!
Before the race
At the end. We were smiling because we were glad it was almost over.
Tired, but very happy
We were so happy that when we tried to "Hi-5" each other we missed. Of course the photographer would have to capture that moment in time.
