Yeah, things have been very rough this month and I've been careening out of control.  More backwards than forwards.  I've been so tired and unmotivated.  Not eating right. Falling back into bad habits. Not getting sleep. Been letting big disappointments and life challenges get me down.  On top of it I've been struggling with bronchitis most of the month AGAIN which has been just too much. Mike (last years winner), sent us all a motivating email today which really helped.  Also I'm taking my motivation from one of my favorite Rascal Flatts songs called "Stand", it's awesome!  I haven't played it for a while but I should because it alwayslifts me up. You feel like a candle in a hurricane   Just like a picture with a broken frame   Alone and helpless like you've lost your fight   But you'll be alright, you'll be alright   CHORUS:   'Cause when push comes to shove   You taste what you're made of   You might bend, till you break   Cause its all you can take   On your knees you look up   Decide you've had enough   You get mad you get strong   Wipe your hands shake it off   Then you Stand, then you stand  Life's like a novel with the end ripped out   The edge of a canyon with only one way down   Take what you're given before its gone   And start holding on, keep holding on  see CHORUS Every time you get up   And get back in the race   One more small piece of you   Starts to fall into place, yeah  see CHORUS So I'm brushing myself off and I'm STANDING and getting back in this race!
