Amy that is not allowed

Yep, it should be outlawed, I tell ya. Thanks, Bill, it gives me a special, fuzzy kinda feeling.

wgraves7582 - 2010-01-11 3:35 PM Alright Ghoulies - I will chat with you tomorrow.  Heading out shortly to get my second opinion.

I called my note doctor to inquire as to what was fine about the x-ray and he said that it does not show advanced arthritis and that an MRI would be next.  I think I will stick with the guy tonight and take that path since Doctor #1 is a pin head!

Have a great evening!


Hope you hear some good news!
X2. Good news is always welcome, as well as hoped for.

Good morning everyone!!!

I will only be here for a little while again today. It looks like I'm stuck in class the rest of the week.

The class is for a software package we use. I've used the package for years and he didn't show us a thing yesterday that I didn't already know how to do. It was quite boring. I would have much rather been in the village.

I'm not sure if I'll be around over the weekend either. I'm taking my laptop with me to AZ, but I'm not sure how much internet access I'll have. Once place I look and it says there is internet in the hotel, I look somewhere else and it says it costs $14.95 a day for internet access. I'm not paying that much.

If I can't get on I'll post updates on Facebook. Maybe you guys with FB accounts can post my updates here, please.

I'll check back in shortly, and read what went on here yesterday.

Onward and upward everyone!!!

No No, there is no working in the weekend!

Take 2 days off and call the Ghoulies in the morning.

Hi Neal!

Yesterday afternoon I had a short period of time where it was hard to stay awake. I have my phone charged up today and I plan to spend the day reading Facebook posts, keeping up with emails, and send my sister stupid text messages to keep myself amused.

I'm looking at the bright side. I worked 9 hours yesterday. Because of the class I'll get 10.5 in the next 2 days. I'm salaried and because of my contract not allowed overtime. So I work 10 hours on Thursday then I'm done for the week. I don't have to come in on Friday. I can sleep in, put my kids on the bus, do some things around the house and take care of me before I head off to AZ. Yes, I am looking at the bright side!

Yeah for Friday's off before the big race!!! 

As for boring meetings with no internet...I entertain myself by texting my youngest nephew.  I think I have gotten him in trouble at school a couple times.  Innocent

Hello all! Miss me?

Class is soooooo boring. It ranks on the same level of excitement as a root canal.

I would much rather spend my day here in the village.

I just checked the weekend weather for Tempe. Lows are in the upper 40's, highs in the mid 70's. I'm packing shorts for the race!

HI GHOULIES.

JUST TWIRLING THROUGH....

the clouds are beginning to part, life is moving forward.

jim put an offer on the townhouse yesturday eve, and the seller contacted dhs agent.  the seller is discussing the offer w his wife.

im hopeful there will be answer by the end of the week.  it will be a 45 day close.  so from the time the offer is accepted, 45 days later.

that will help in the planning and certainly for us all emotionally.

its been a tough two going on three weeks around here.


ive been feeling well.  drained, but well.  looking forward to having a 2nd chance at creating a life for myself.

ive been attentive to the boys, theyre feeling the stress of it for sure.  for them, its not so much that relationship is over (really.  its been over for a long time...) its more not knowing what life will 'look' like in the days, weeks, months, years ahead.

i think once jim is out and we have established a new routine (which WILL include jim as it pertains to the kids) life will take on at least some semblance of a new normal for them.

of course it will NEVER be the same.  i dont want to minimize that for them.  it is their childhood afterall....

but im confident/optimistic moving forward, myself and the boys, were gonna be better than fine.


i did start my OLY distance tri training yesturday.  and im feeling the emotional drag....im being VERY gentle with myself right now, knowing these are unusual circumstances.

fortunately since im just at the start, my trng distances/times are short (even for an Oly trng plan...)

im not making any decisions, but i did consider pruning back my original race schedule.   seems prudent.

everything is written in pencil, i keep telling myself. 

its so hard to predict what life will be like and how i'll be feeling 5-6 months from now.


actually.  ive gotten the comment repeatedly from my friend how much BETTER i look, and how much HAPPIER i seem.....

the relationship 'as is' for sure was having a deep affect on me. 


not that seperating/divorcing is great either.

but at least i feel, like i said before, that ive been given an opportunity to recreate my life in way thats full of energy and vitality.

so.....this Ghoulie girl.....she's......

moving on.


GHOULIE LOVE.

Good morning everyone!

12 hour workday yesterday. The class ran longer than scheduled. I kept thinking to myself this just means I get to leave earlier on Thursday. I was wiped out by the time I got home last night.

I'm hoping today's class runs closer to schedule.

Bill - I hope everything works out with your knee and you are able to run again

Stacie - I'm happy you stopped by the village, our queen has been greatly missed.

Everyone else - Thank you for the inspires. I am looking forward to the warmer climate and my race on Sunday!

I had such a SUCKTASTIC day yesterday I decided to do something for myself today.

I signed up for the Pittsburgh HM on May 2nd.

I had seriously considered the United HM in NJ on April 18th, but that date didn't work for me. Nephews first birthday party outranks my desire to run.

I also decided I am going to do the Olympic distance at Black Bear. When I get back from AZ I will register for that.

I think my year will look like 1 Sprint, 2 Oly's, 2 HM's and 1 FULL MARATHON to wrap up the year. I want to do the Marine Corps Marathon next October.

I started looking at HIM's for next summer already. Is it too early to be planning for 2011? I mean I've already got IM China 2012 on the calendar...

I need address from everyone who wanted a shirt! PM me

If you haven't given me a size yet I need that, too.

wgraves7582 - 2010-01-13 8:22 AM Morning Ann(e) - I am here for a while then off to Excel Training from 9-11:30.

It has been a quiet village lately!


We will certainly have to do something about that!

2 1/2 hours of Excel training, ugh.
