Running

Last night I ran on my treadmill. I really ran. It felt so good and so emotional all at the same time. I listen to my ipod instead of watching T.V. You know how certain songs can stir certain emotions? It all came flooding back. I ran through a lot of pain last summer, both physically and emotionally. And it all came back. But it was good. I'm in a better place. It felt so good to know I am not the same person and that I am progressing. And it felt sooooooooooo good to run. I'm on my way back.

Hi you don't know who I am, Kendra Dynes told me about you and your sweet son. I to have a 9 year old boy that has autism (aspergers). He is a handful at times and I feel like the world is closing in but then when I hear that there are others out there that are fighting this battle I do not feel so alone. I live in Idaho and there is not much in the way of autism help in the school, and it is very frustrating and every year I pray that he has a good teacher. I am very nervous about middle school. Any ways check out my blog I post from time to time about what we are doing that works and what does not work for us. I believe that support is very helpful. Thanks Sally Smith

Angi,you're a braver woman than I. I've been avoiding running for the sake of running for the last few months. It hurts my joints when I'm over weight. I only run when I'm playing basketball or volleyball. I really need to get with it. Hey! My frien Jill put together a "Hard Body" program. She's a body builder/physical fitness trainer who's amazing she's looking for a test group to do before and afters. Neil and I both submitted applications. Are you interested?
