Volunteers needed
Pat is in a friendly competition with my family members to see who can make their goals the most time in the next few months. One of his goals is to walk everyday. While I am very grateful that he has set this goal, my time is stretched very thin and in order for him to make his goal each day, he has been relying on me to assist him with his walking.
He (actually really me) is looking for some volunteers who would be willing to donate a little time to come and walk with him. It can be a little, or a lot, whatever you want to offer. He just needs someone who is willing to walk behind him, holding on to his belt so he can feel safe enough to concentrate on walking, instead of worrying if he is going to fall.
He does walk pretty slow, but is getting faster every day. He has a goal of walking unassisted with the walker by the time we move to Idaho, but if he only walks with me, he will never make it. We have been walking on the track at Heath school, and the treadmill at home (thanks for the loan Devon and Alanna!), and occasionally Wal-Mart, but he doesn't like Wal-Mart much because the floor is glossy and a little slick. Now that the weather is pretty nice, we have also been talking about taking a walk at the park.
If any of you are close enough and would like to help us with this goal, please let us know. We welcome any help you want to offer. And for those of you that are farther away, we appreciate your cheering and prayers more than you can ever know!

News
Since Pat let the cat out of the bag, I better give some details. :) Pat and I are working on moving to Idaho to be closer to my family, which is something he has wanted since before we got married. I think the first time he visited them, he was hooked. We are tentatively looking at sometime in July, it depends on a few factors such as finding a place to live and me finishing up a big work project so that I can feel comfortable leaving.
I made a promise to Pat that if he started walking more, we would consider it. We both felt very strongly impressed at the beginning of April that it was time to start making plans to move right away instead of waiting any longer. Because of a large restructuring/retraining effort that is going on at my employment, I am spending the entire month of May and June doing a Bootcamp training and making videotape sessions of different items for our representatives, which is even more intense than it sounds. It will leave them in a good place though, and I can feel like I have done everything necessary to help them be successful after we move.
It is such a bittersweet feeling for both of us because we have so many strong ties and memories of Greeley and this area. But things have to keep changing in order for us to grow. We are looking forward to our next endeavour together. :)

Time goes by an I haven't done enough. I push and push myself. I guess I just ain't pushing myself hard enough. I can see this is a big problem. The LORD tells us to giving everything we got. Until we can't give anymore. It seems like I did that once already, and he still took them. My family. That just can't happen again. I'm trying so hard. I'm going to have to go an look for a job. A forty hour working job. Or walk for forty hours in a week. I ain't being the man I was meant to be.The over all goal is to be like heavenly father.

The things I ded
From 04-17-12
From a very young age I was taught how to do many things. Right or wrong, It didn't matter I just did them. I didn't know it was not right for me to have been dating at a very young age. I got my first kiss when I was in the first grade. I was made fun of, so I would fight and fight and win. When now to even fight giving in to temptation is wrong so now I say I lost. I remember I was in the second grade I was taking A math test in side my desk I had all the right answers. I was cheating .
