Its funny how people who you hardly know, have a huge impact on your life.  My husbands boss died unexpectedly over the weekend.  Despite the fact that I rarely ever talked to this man, my heart is deeply saddened at his passing.  I know that because of the actions of this man, because of how he treated my husband, because of how he praised and encouraged my husband, that we have had a good experience with this company over the last 4 years.  I know the men who worked there looked to him as a mentor and a friend.  My heart is sad for his family, who will greatly miss him.  He was only 49 years old.

It has also made me think about my own life and my own health.  I want to be healthy and be able to enjoy my life with my family. I want to be able to see my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren grow.  I know that we need to make some serious changes to how we treat our health.  I think back to last year, when I could barely get out of bad.  There have been some great improvements since then.  I take Hubby his dinner when he is working at the ball field and it makes me smile, because I can walk across the field without trouble.  Last year I wouldn't have been able to.  Two miles is the farthest I have walked, and it kind of kicked my butt, but I was so happy to be able to do it.  I have a new determination to be healthy, although I admit I feel kind of lost.  I don't really know where to start. I guess I have some work to be doing.
