Moments

Today I spent the vast majority of my time getting ready to host an adults only dinner for our Sunday School class.  

On Wednesday some of the girls came to cook with me.  We made as much as we could ahead of time.  We made a bunch of deliciousness.

So today I was mainly getting my house in order.  Larry cleaned out the garage (where we would be eating) and one of the girls came over to help me decorate.  

I believe it was a smashing success.  Here are some photos:

Did you notice all the spring flowers?!  They are so lovely.  While I am a lover of winter, I seriously enjoy some daffodils and tulips.  They make my heart happy.  And the weather today was incredible!

In the middle of my preparations I decided to go for a run.  

Here is where all the 'moments' come in.

The first was an amnesiac moment.  I forgot my sunglasses.  I like to wear them to a.) keep the sun out of my eyes and b.) disguise myself a little.  But no biggie, I'll just squint a little bit.

Next there was that awkward moment.  A family I know was just leaving their house and walking in the same direction I was running in.  Now, I haven't been running long and I'm running slightly downhill so I am not out of breath and can say "Hi!".  So I pass them and they are walking behind me and I am very aware of the parts of me that bounce a lot move more than I'd like them too.  Seeing as how it was such a lovely day, I wasn't wearing a hoodie which helps to camofloge said parts.

And then the awesome moment.  A stranger high-fives me.  Thanks, random old guy!

Ah, the avoidance moment.  This is my favorite because I like to call myself names.  So, I am almost at the point in my run where I turn around and run back the way I came.  But up ahead I see a guy come out of his house and start running toward me.  I can tell that when I get to my turn around point he will be right there too.  So, to avoid having to watch him leave me in the dust, I turn the corner with my prideful foolish self and run a longer more difficult route.

Which leads to the asthmatic moment.  Cuz now I'm running up more hills.  And I'm running a longer distance.  And I can't breathe.

I'm an idiot.

Life is full of moments.  Some are fun and some...not so fun.  

What was your most recent fun moment?
