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 ;)

bad mood.  Not to happy.  I need to run or I am going to have to go on meds soon.  Hopefully the elliptical will give me the boost I need.

I am still so HAPPY about everyone's St George Marathon.  I am SO proud of y'all!!!

Oh how I love you! I want to join you and Michelle for a run. I finally posted the race report, not that it's exciting to read.

So sorry you are struggling. Hang in there. I will pray for you.

Do you have to go to the gym for the elliptical or can you do it at home? We need to find some way to make it fun and rewarding for you, like watching good movies or reading a good book or something, maybe.

McKenzie- YOU are too sweet! and, you are a ROCKIN' racer speed demon!!! YEs, we shall run as soon as your legs are all better :)

Maurine- Thanks so much. I could use a prayer or two :) You must have just done it... I vacuumed the family room and the stairs :)...AND, I did not yell at anyone or cry :) I sure hope you are feeling okay :) When does Jennifer get here?

Carolyn- I am using my neighbors in her home office. They have a VCR and I watched the first half of Independence Day :D Good stuff. I almost got off at 30 minutes, but Michelle called and we chatted for 20 minutes. I gutted the last 10 minutes out on my own ;) You are right, I need to find some joy in this, but all I do is see these GORGEOUS afternoons and want to be running all over town as the sun sets. Romantic, yes, but Oh so nice :) I am so far out from running that even a marathon sounds fun right now. See, I am losing my marbles.
