Still Standing..

I'm still here!!!  It's been such a CRAZY summer!  4 of our nieces (well, the ones 8 years and older) came to spend a week with us in consecutive order (most of them made it the whole week), my Dad joined the party one of those weeks, we've had youth camps, funerals, birthdays and anniversaries, spend-the-nights, the premature birth of my may-as-well-be nephew, and actually worked in a date night for me and the hubs!  My fitness has absolutely taken a back burner and it shows...One of my reasons for not posting is, of course, the guilt I feel about not doing my best.  But, I'm trying to get over that. I actually get irritated because I don't WANT to NOT drink a Mountain Dew or NOT eat an unhealthy snack.  I totally understand Paul when he mentioned in the Bible something along the lines of "the things I don't want to do, I do and the things I want to do, I don't do."  I'm totally there.

So pray for me as I put one foot in front of the other and do what I know needs to happen.

Here's a bit of inspiration for you (and me!!):


And, because I now have this song stuck in my head from the title of this post, here's something to get your praise on (listen all the way to the end!):
