In The Meantime...

An Ironman in the spring of 2013 seems pretty far away, so I've made some smaller goals to work toward until then.  Not necessarily physical goals, but life goals.  Here are a few, not really in any particular order:


Myrtle Beach Marathon- February 18, 2011
National Board Certification information due- March 31, 2011
Take the GRE (ugh)- Sometime before March 31, 2011
Apply to Columbia International for Masters of Arts in Counseling- Applications due March 31, 2011
Pay off debt- Before August 1, 2011
Buy a house- Sometime in the next year
Mud Run- April 2011
Get more involved at church and in the community 
Remain single (and date free) for a year (October 21, 2011-October 21, 2012)


The last goal on the list may, or may not be, the driving force behind all of the others.  I don't know if I'm trying to distract myself or just trying to wear myself out so that I don't have time to think!  I just want to be ready, whenever the time comes...if the time comes, for whatever the future brings.  So in the meantime, even when I feel lonely, bored, or exhausted, I'll keep focused on challenging myself and giving more of myself to others so that everything else can just fall in to place.
