It is a big day. It is ok to be happy, sad, relieved, and any other emotion you feel necessary today. You've spent a large portion of your life being married to him. Things aren't just changing for the WILD THINGS, they are changing for you and him, too. But it is for the best, and you will be ok. Ok?

BIG SLOPPY HUGS AND KISSES!!!

WOOHOO!!!!

Neal - mark that date in your calendar.

Stacie, if you go look at my training log it might put a smile on your face.

Oh dammit. I have to run tonight. I HAVE TO! and there is a severe thunderstorm watch in effect until 8:00 tonight.

I HAVE TO RUN TONIGHT! I'm just sayin'.

Just found out the MIL of a friend of mine passed away this week. She had Alzheimer's and had been in a home.

She didn't know her family, she didn't know who herself. May she rest in peace.

Hi everyone!  I heard a rumor of the ghoulies doing a half-marathon in January... Is this true?

Here's the link. Save the date. There is rumor there will be a margarita drinking contest. We will also be celebrating Neal and I's birthday's while we are there.

Cool!  Count me and the DH in!

Happy Friday Ghoulies! Way to go on getting to thread #2. Perhaps I'll go back and read the last 10 pages of thread #1 but for now I'll just try to get caught up here. I hope all is well!

Here are my totals so far:

Bike: 69.94 mi
Run: 14.35 mi
Swim: 2400 m

The last couple weeks have been rough, but I'm thinking I should be able to get back into a routine next week. I'm sure I'll be able to get at least one IM distance in each discipline with a little left over.

Tom's totals toppage!

Good for you Stacie! This week I've been in Transition class and we spent a lot of time going over job search stuff. Time for Tom to go get some plates spinning as well so I have some choices (hopefully)!

I'm really glad my kids aren't that into pop music. Basically their only exposure besides the occasional radio in the car is the Kidz Bop commercials. That and the Jonas Brothers and Hannah Montana. Grr...

Sorry to hear about your friend's loss Neal. My thoughts are with him and his family.

Hey Mike! Be sure to share any shifting tricks you pick up as well. Apparently I'm still doing something wrong. I was riding last weekend and keeping pace with a rider I caught up to at a stop light but when we'd hit a hill I got dropped REALLY quickly. I don't know what he did (or if he just has freak legs) but his cadence was REALLY fast going up hill. I may try to experiment with that tomorrow.

Hey Amy. Sorry about your messed up schedule. I hope your hours return to normal soon!

Wouldn't your hubby be the better person to ask???

Something tells me Stacie already jumped on this, but it's Faris Al Sultan.
