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 ;)

How does that song go?  "One bad apple, don't spoil the whole week of runs?"

It's monday, what more needs to be said!  I got really sick in the middle :(  I am guessing my body wasn't very happy to be running at 5:30 am.  What a WIMP!!!  Kim was VERY brave and non-wimpy.

You got out and did it! Mondays are tough, so draggng yourself out of bed and doing it is a great start to the week. I am hiking this morning, so it is an easy way to break myself in for the week. I liked your goals! I made some too, I hoping I can make my milage, we are heading for Huntsville on Thur. and I may not make it. Don't forget to be cute and friendly!!! That was my favorite!!!!!

Cute and friendly may be out today! But... I'll have to swing it- I am on my way to work! They pay me for cute and friendly ;)

When you say work, do you mean WW? Or do you do something else as well?

From Kim on Mon, Jun 30, 2008 at 16:53:56

Ya Marion, you better be careful when you say you get paid to be cute and friendly! :)

Leslie- Yes, I mean WW- aside from being the primary slave to my darling children, ww is my only job. (the kids don't pay enough for the "cute" part)

Kim- true, I definately could get in trouble with that comment ;) I guess I should put an *** in. Although, I think Gina might get a good laugh at it. It's funny on SO many levels!
