My youngest baby basset and I have decided to try the jump rope challenge. I think there are a few versions of it, but the one we will be doing is the 1000 jumps every day for one week. I am no spring chicken, so we are spending this week working our way up to 1000 jumps. We started out doing 300 jumps the first day, each taking a turn doing 100 jumps. We then add an additional set of 100 each day. Yesterday we did 700. It seems like a really high number, but as we have discovered it is doable. It just takes a bit of time and patience. I really love these exercise challenges I see online. I get so bored with exercise that switching it up actually makes it kinda fun. Just a few more days of training and then the challenge begins. I am oddly looking forward to it.

FREE for a limited time
He wants her back. She wants nothing to do with him.
To Miriam Yoder, Michael Eicher is everything she doesn’t want. Prideful, cocky, arrogant. A defector from the Amish life. Why would a gut Amish woman like Miriam even consider being his friend again? Especially after what he’d put her through — professing his affection then skipping town. She didn’t have the heart to go through that again. It was easier to keep her heart sealed up and hidden away, than to chance vulnerability. And she’d be fool to ever trust Michael again.
Michael has lived most of his youth as an irresponsible worldly young man. But when he’s forced to return home, his eyes are opened to the community he’s neglected. He’s only genuinely cared for one woman, Miriam Yoder. Will he be able to convince Miri to give him a second chance? Can this self-centered man who’d only lived for himself find something — or Someone — greater to live for?
A faith-filled story of second chances and learning what true love is, that’s sure to pull on your heartstrings.
