Bright spots or sparks

Today, I'm going to be a lot better at getting all this out today. So before we get started on all that happened yesterday, I'm gonna explain me a little bit so you know me better. Some of you do, some don't.

My top favorite things to do:
1. Read (A LOT)
2. Run (again, A LOT)
3. Cross-stitch
4. Garden
5. Play video games (weird for a girl, but I love them)

So now that's out of the way. I said yesterday that I was going out for a 4 mile run. I try to get my running done in the am because I have a much better, productive day if I do. I usually run on my treadmill but I decided that I wanted to run my neighborhood instead of looking at 4 walls every run. I have been working up a mile at a time until I run the entire neighborhood like I used to. Once I get that I'm gonna start doing laps around the neighborhood. I have a goal of running a 5k, 10k, 15k, half, and a full marathon by the time I'm 40. I have 6 years left. I only have a 5k under my belt. There are some days where I want to run more than just the miles outside, so the I hit the treadmill later in the day. Yes, I'm a mileage junkie. I love to run(once its done :oP).

On to my next spark! I got some work done on my cross-stitch that I've been working on for 2 years now. I don't have pictures today. Tomorrow that will happen. I will also post what the finished project is suppose to look like too. I haven't worked on this in forever. I wish I would have, I have 1/2 a page left on stitching, then the boring back stitch. I dont know WHY I hate back stitching, it makes the whole thing pop. It also gets done faster. This is my old lady habit.

Other than those 2 things. I just had a normal average day. The kid took forever doing 6 pages of workbook because he didn't have a summer book to read. It took him ALL day to finish. He had to do the 6 pages, and 2 piano practices to be able to watch Wild Kratts and have ice cream at church. He missed the piano, and the special treatments. I don't know WHY it takes forever for him to do work like that but I'm not going to budge on it. I have before, and he walks all over me. That's not a bright spark. I worked my way thru it to church yesterday, and sung my heart out at a few of my favorite songs. I love the song choices this week for both services. I can't wait to get my worship on Sunday am.

Signing off. Have a blessed, wonderful day! Hope you have some bright sparks today!!
