Artemis - 2008-03-26 7:39 PM So, it looks like races will be the theme for April and Lynne and I are going to run it.

sounds like fun - i'm confused though, I thought I saw you post goals in the thread started by xterratri

xterratri = Lynne(tte)

I did post a goal there

I was thinking of the wrong Lynne and so I was REALLY confused - LOL

Sweet!

Sad ... probably untreated clinical depression. I've been on and off medication for a few years, more recently off, but it's really probably time to get back on to it.

And the boy ... I love him so very much, and him I, and we are perfect for each other, and had a relationship beyond either of our dreams. But for many reasons, the timing/context are wrong wrong wrong. He has a lot of stuff to take care of, and fairly enough, so do I.

If the relationship has any hope, we've got to put it aside. And if (beyond belief) we manage to find people that are better suited to us, then we've truly found something incredible, and would be happy (if momentarily devastated) for the other. 

Sounds like you've got great perspective on things. 
I used to think that people were insane to take med's for depression.  Now that I'm older and understand the context of it all a little better, I say better to take med's than to turn to other worse addicitive cures (ie alcohol

Oh Jen... I wish I could participate... it sounds like it's going to be SO MUCH FUN!!!! Unfortunately, between both boys birthdays, r-ball tourney, hubby's halfmary, and vacation.... I think I'm booked. Maybe I could set REALLY small goals.

Hmm... are time goals going to be allowed, or distance only?

Time goals are allowed (that's what I'm doing).  Two or more of bike, swim, run, and strength.  I don't think small goals would be a problem.  Anything it takes for you to be motivated and get to training. 

Sounds like a busy month, though, and I would completely understand if you can't.

Woiw thats going to take some juggling with teams and spreadsheets! nice....

Thats great idea if yuo include strength I think I can sign up too! Might just be small goals though...

Then again Im the one holding my team back this month so maybe i should deal with that first!

I'm sorry to hear that.  I know how it feels to be off anti-depressants and realize you need to go back on.  

I really feel like sometimes you need to take a break in order for relationships to really work.  I hope it does work out for the two of you and you can both be happy.

I think it depends on who you are... I found that I really didnt like the affect the medication had on me, but I also think that if they do help, especially in severe cases they should be considered along with all the other measures such as diet, exercise and talking to someone...

Yaaaay indeed!

Hi Bethie!

Bye Bethie and Nibbs!

Mwah!

Yaaaay indeed!

Hi Bethie!

Bye Bethie and Nibbs!

Mwah!

What great timing! they obviously had yuo in mind

LOL

it's fabulous really!!!  I was feeling badly about not being able to see his games

oh - he and his little girlfriend broke up

Aaaw well Im sure he wont take long to recover....

oh, he's already recovered!  LOL 

LMAO - obviously not a traumatic experience

LOL - I guess not

apparently his 'girlfriend' was upset that he and one of his best friends, who happens to be a girl, and happens to live next door were spending time together

they've grown up together, they met when they were both 2 - of course they are going to continue to hang out

And so it begins....

I know!

the funny thing is, that although I have kids that are 18 and 17, this is really the first 'relationship' drama that has happened

my older two really haven't dated all that much 

other priorities?

yeah, plus they go to a really small school and they've all been together since 1st and 2nd grade - so my oldest are like - ewwww, dating someone in my class would be like dating my brother or sister
