I have depression I have anxiety I have PTSD But I also got help! And so can you! Today October 10th is Mental Health Day The overall objective of raising awareness of mental health issues around the world and mobilizing efforts in support of mental health. Mental health is important! 

My life has changes so much. My babies grew up. I got married. I moved across the country. Then I added a four old to the mix, just to make things more interesting.☺ Now that was a very short version of things that have happen in the last few years.

It has been way to long since I have posted. I have started many post but some thing takes me away and now I have Twelve Drafts some dating back a few years. So many things have changed over the years. I can't wait to tell you everything!! 

Five years ago I walked(ran down a few of the hills) the austin half marathon and felt accomplished. At the time I was having issues due to my Parkinson and running was not an option. Shortly after that race I got a new Physical Therapist. Once he found out how fast I was walking, he decided that I should be running. At first I was not sure about running. Yes, I ran before but it had been four years and with my issue leg(aka the right leg). But I figured he was the PT and if he thought I should run, I would give it a try.  The training from walking to running was not to hard. I still did a lot of walking at first then some running. I entered more races and continued to work on more running. I found that I had less issue with the issue leg when I was running then walking. Running made it so I was lifting up the leg and you can't tell that it's was ever an issue. So I work on more running and less walking. At first it was a mile here a mile there. Then I just started to runnin...

So much has happened since the last time I wrote. I have moved from elementary to high school for work. I just recently finished doing a 2,015 miles in 2015 challenge. So many other things have happened and until I can get you all caught up. Here are some Awful Library books that we are weeding from the collection. Now if you don't think these books are Awful, don't worry more are coming.
