My Favorite Quote- "When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." -Harriet Beecher Stowe

I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born. I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband. My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

But what did your true love give you on the 9th day? :)

Glad you got a run in and that you're still working so hard taking care of yourself!!

Great job! That should keep you busy for 12 days.

Hola Ladies! It felt SO good to kick my bum :) I never thought I would like that huffing and puffing, "think you might die" feeling. I's the best!

Your post made me laugh (a very dainty laugh, nothing like a cackle) :D

From marion on Sun, Oct 18, 2009 at 11:09:32 from 71.213.119.74

Michelle- I LOVE your laugh, and hearing it MAKES my day :) I need to capture it for my ring tone for when you call me :)

Especially the "I crack myself up" variety :D (doing it right now)

RECORD IT ON YOUR PHONE AND SEND IT TOO ME :) Fordy has a fever so I am at home planning my triumphant return to running in excel :)

Smiling right now. You are too dang cute!

Way to go on those 116 sit ups. Nothing like an extra 16 to do the trick. Sorry again I wasn't a good hostess for the bloodletting. I was somewhat frantic because translating isn't really my thing. I was there 4 1/2 more hours. I was exahusted by the end (I'd already worked 9 hours already before the dang thing started). Three other volunteers never showed because apparently the freeway was closed because of an accident. By the end, I thought I would die if I had to look at another urine sample. But way to celebrate your good kidney health by running 2 miles and planning your comeback on an excel spreadsheet--I always do the same thing to plan my training schedule. Take it easy getting back into the swing!
