The Ghoulies are doing Ironman distances this month! (Page 45)

ironannekidd - 2010-04-08 5:59 AM Good morning Ghoulies!!!

How is everyone doing today?

Here in the ghetto it is freezing this morning. We went from Dante's Inferno, to somewhere in Antarctica. I didn't wear a jacket to work this morning, but fortunately I had one in my car I could go out and get.

I may need a Ghoulie guy to help warm me up later!

i am SERIOUSLY still BUZZING from that SPIN BOOT CAMP last night.

it took me like FOREVER to fall asleep.

i tend to avoid evening workouts for that reason.  i really have a hard time settling down after a workout.

but last night ESPECIALLY.

the workout, plus the fact that i need to go and have a 'sit down' w my inlaws today.

not that im 'scared' they are by far the least intimidating people on the planet.

they are NICE in Andy Griffith Mayberry syrupy sweet sorta way.....which in the situation is an advantage.

though...

i always come to find out later in some convulted way that they really are harboring lets say anger, but they never express directly.

so.  in that respect. it should be a FUN conversation to have.


i'll be setting the 'tone' moving forward.

though it didnt work out for J. and I to stay together, its my hope that we continue to stay connected and that i will be 'invited' to take part in holidays, dinners, special events for the 'sake' of the kids.

my family has done a MOST EXCELLENT JOB reaching out to J. through all of this because they know its what i want, and they know its whats best for the kids.

we'll see if i can get Ma and Pa on board as well.

wish me luck GHOULIES.

Thanks Stacie! Tell him I will pay him in cookies and Easter candy.

After one of my runs this winter when the temperature was below freezing I couldn't get warm after I got back to the house. I had my daughter sitting beside me in my recliner and my son sitting on top of me trying to warm me up.
