Break my Stride
If today had a theme song, it would be that 1980s classic “Break My Stride” by Matthew Wilder. Oh, come on. You know the one. The hook goes like this:
“Ain’t nothin’ gonna break my stride
Nobody’s gonna slow me down, oh no
I got to keep on moving
Ain’t nothin’ gonna break my stride
I’m running and I won’t touch ground, oh no
I got to keep on moving.”
Wow. Check this out. I found a photo of Matthew Wilder.
Ain’t nothing going to break my stride today. It is raining good news:
1. Jill Carrol has been released in Iraq. I have prayed for this girl countless times and had tears come to my eyes this morning when I heard she’d been let go. Yay!
2. Backtack III is in the works. WOO HOO!
3. My brother and I made up.
4. My swim coach and I made up.
5. I came home last night to a surprise gift in the mail from my friend Mike. Love that boy. He is too thoughtful. He sent me this from Amazon:
It’s like the badge book for adults who want to do good. It couldn’t be more me. Thank you Mike!
Life is good. Sometimes you just need a little reminder.

I love that song.
Glad it was a make up day all around. Are you going back to the swim team??
Life is indeed, very good
I was so happy when I read this morning that Jill was released. There is something to be very thankful for today.
The picture of Matthew Wilder is scary. Did we even like that look back then? Did girls go crazy over him? I hope not…no wonder why the teenagers make fun of me when we watch “I love the 80’s”.
I used to love that song - now I’m going to have it stuck in my head for the rest of the day. I’m so glad to hear that things are going in the right direction for you. That’s got to make you feel good. I’m so sad that I can’t sign up for back-tack III. Even though I never received anything from back-tack II, I’m still willing to try again, but not with a newborn.
