Glad to be at work to rest!

I'm sitting in my office to type this blog up with some very sore muscles reminding me of just how fun the weekend was! We had a blast! Some family time all together and some time doing separate things because of the calendar, but we all had some great times this weekend!
First of all, Friday night, when I got home from work, I was tired already! I didn't really feel like going out to dinner, but I didn't think I had the energy to cook anything either (and no one else in the house was rushing into the kitchen to get things going!!) Finally I rallied up the energy to cook, by remembering Andrea's latest blog about making home made biscuits. (I've always made biscuits using Bisquick, and they do fine.) I knew we were out of Bisquick, so I let my type A personality kick in and wasn't going to let my friend outdo me! We had breakfast. Eggs, bacon and home made (from scratch, the real deal) biscuits. They were great! I do have a little work to do on them, but I was impressed with myself!
Saturday morning we had to separate. Grif had science Olympiad, Bailey had softball practice and I had a softball tourney. My first game was at 8 am in Woodstock, so I had to leave the house around 6:30. When the day was finally over, Grif had a silver and a bronze medal from his two events, their team got overall first place in the region and qualified for State. Bailey got the beginnings of a sun burn and had a good practice, and they all met down in Woodstock to watch my team win first place in the tourney! Good day for the Guyton's.
We got home at 11:30. After a shower and moving the clock ahead a hour, it was already 1 am, church was going to be tough!
It was tough crawling out of bed already seriously sore, but I was happy by the time we hit the first note of worship! The music set was amazing and then Jonathan preached yesterday in Pastor's absence. He was great, but extremely challenging! As was bible study, as it always is. Shep asks questions that make you think! But better than that, provides you with scriptures, that force you to change, or at least be knowledgeable when you are outside of God's plan. Tough stuff.
Sunday afternoon we all worked in the yard. (Except Bailey who had another softball practice to finish off her sun burn!) I cleaned the gutters. Pruned some bushes. Got to pullout the chain saw and cut the top out of a dogwood tree we are trying to save. Then pruned some of my neighbors bushes. I cut my yard and my neighbor's yard as well, and got finished just in time to take a quick shower and head to Frank's house for the choir's GAP party. We had a good time getting know folks and eating too much.
I woke up this morning A LOT more sore than yesterday, and went to work out anyway. I ran for as long as I could and then rode the bike for another 15 minutes hard, trying to work the soreness out, but for right now at least, to no avail! I am hurting and glad to get back to work to rest a little!!
