So today was a pretty normal day. Got up, ate, worked out, handled business, went home, ate (lol), and now I'm going out again. Just doing some salsa dancing, keeping what little skill I remember up... I will take it back on sometime after June or July... I just have a lot going on right now in my life. Today I learned a lot of lessons about myself at the Caterpillar Challenge meeting. And though I could not fully convey how I felt about a certain topic, I heard enough from the group to let me know the answer to a question that I had since arriving to the Containment Area: How far have I progressed in my evolution of reasoning and thought on certain situations that I have encountered in my life from the family side.
It was kind of like one of those "when I was a child I played as a child, thought like a child, spoke as a child, but when I became a man, I put away childish things" moments. I will elaborate more after Lent is over.

The Lenten Saga: Day 24
I am definitely into the March Madness, and so far my 2 of my 3 teams pretty much won their games (Duke, USC). Now all eyes on Ohio State! Gotta finish up this caterpillar challenge reading, and I am all good to go! YaY!!!

The Lenten Saga: Day 23
The NCAA Basketball Tourney is well underway. PITT for National Champs! Anyways, I just saw that Clemson Lost to Michigan! Why am I not surprised? UM is surprisingly decent... They are no Ohio State, but still. Anyways, bedtime for me. Good night!

The Lenten Saga: Day 22
I am still at work as I am typing this...
Cold, tired, hungry.
I am losing my energy. Will I be able to make it home?
I have so many things going on in my head. Everything is a blur... As a matter of fact, everything is beginning to get really blurry. This work must get done. No one else can do it but me. At least I found some time to work out my legs today, and boy did I give them one hell of a workout. Every part of my lower body was very tender coming out of the gym... I need food... I need water. My head is getting lighter. It is hard to focus on a lot of things. I need to do my caterpillar readings.... I am usually done by Wednesday for whatever we will be talking about on Saturday, but I am falling behind. It is hard to multitask, but I need to find a balance. I do not know how much longer I am going to last. I feel like sleeping here! But I can not! I must leave! I think I will go to the salsa social at 9... That should give me a little energy... enough to make it back to the Containment Area.
Lord, Help Me.

The Lenten Saga: Day 21
The march madness is reaching fever pitch! So I went ahead and got my bracket done... For now. I have Pittsburgh winning it all but that might change. I went ahead and place Ohio State and USC in the sweet 16! LOLOL... Now the chances of that happening is slim, but one can dream! Still good on the Lenten promise! and things are coming together for the house! Exciting times, indeed!

The Lenten Saga: Day 20
So today was a pretty long day, but I feel like I am being carried. I am not sure why, but ever since I started this Lenten Journey, and gave up what I gave up, I am noticing quite a few changes... Positive changes at that! I have a lot of energy, and I am waking up earlier than ever before. I am getting less sleep, but when I wake up, I feel like I have slept for 8 hours. It is the weirdest feeling. But I am also seeing the temptations all around me. It is as if I can not get away from it, and it is getting more and more intense! I pray I will not fall... I made it 19 days. It is not getting any easier. I heard people say that if you give up something challenging and you made it past 10 days, it gets easier... Whoever said that was lying! LOL. It is harder, now more than ever.
To day 21!
To day 21!

The Lenten Saga: Day 19
So yea, let the March Madness begin!
I am getting my bracket in order, hopefully, I will have better luck this year than last, because I DEFINITELY did not see Kansas winning it all last year. Today was a rainy day... God was washing away the sins of the world, as mom would say. But it is late, and I need to go get some rest. Peace!
