Journal Entry
Hardest day yet. My whole body feels like it’s throbbing. Even my hands from holding the hiking poles. We did 12 miles and at least 3 passes. One way up to a pass was intense switchbacks. My knees really hurt. I am cold and don’t sleep well at night. I wish I could sleep as well as Dad does. I also wish he would understand what it’s like to be small and to get cold easily. I smell so bad too. I can’t bear it. I suppose that’s what I get for wearing the same long underwear that I sweated in all day, to bed. I’m grumpy and exhausted. Going to try to sleep now.
My Prayer
Jesus, please help me sleep and be warm. I’m so cold.
