Can you believe that 9 months ago I was running a 1/2 marathon and now I am walking around my office - hoping to not have to go outside on the ice for fear that I may fall and have to go through PT another 6 months for yet another knee injury.

Actually - I am so thankful that I have legs that at one point allowed me to run! As much as this year has been a true challenge physically - it has been very rewarding spiritually and personally. I never realized how much I enjoy relaxing. Having time for myself, my friends, and most importantly God.

These past few months have shown me the importance of being still, not always by choice but it was always beneficial! It is true when people say that God teaches us the most during trials! This year trully has been a trial with my knees - In fact, it is almost comical to look back and think of all the things that have happened over the past 9 months!

God is so good - and I have learned so much! I am so thankful! Now - I just hope I don't fall when I leave the office today - or I will just have to lay there and laugh because just when you think nothing more can happen to my knee something will so I will just smile and say oh well!
