i'm here.  i'm here.  i'm here!

the beast of a room wasnt as beastly as i thought.

a bag for garbage.

a bag for Goodwill.

a bag for my friend whose son is a few years younger than my youngest.

and (ashamed to admit it) Christmas decorations that my dh STILL needs to put up in the attic.

i suppose he's figuring that in 2 1/2 months he'll have to take them down from the attic, so why bother.  LOL.

once i get all the bags outta there and get on my dhs case for procrastinating, it will be an empty room.

why we even bothered buying a 4 bedroom house, when we had a perfectly fine 3 bedroom.

we thought it would be nice for the boys to all have their own rooms (and im sure at some point they will)

but my middle and my youngest have been sharing a room since my youngest was born.

sometimes now they even end up in the same bed together even though theres bunkbeds.

ahhhh.  brotherhood.

I heart BBQ baked chicken, and I'm only 3 1/2ish hours from Pittsburgh. If you have leftovers...

that's great !!

sweet.   But how does that leave any time for life outside of work and then you add in training.  Wow!  Impressive

They were SOOOO good!

very good report.  And great job on the PR

I am a surgery resident...80-90 is the worst that it gets...right now I am in the lab doing basic science research for a year so I work around 60-70( I work 10-12 hour days 5 days a week and then take one over night call)...thats how I get the running in...Not sure how I will do it when I am back to full clinical duty next summer...I will find a way... The human body can survive on surprisingly little sleep.

Thanks Jules!!  I took your advice and just hung with the hubby!  Luckily I only have 3 pages to catch up on!

I am in year 4 of 7.

Right now I am in a research lab for a year so that makes training possible as I only am working 60-70 hours a week right now...Not sure I will be able to keep up tri training when I am back to clinical duty...but I plan to continue running and biking...the pool is harder because there are only certain hours that they are open.  I usually am home from work by 7 or 8 pm which means I can get a quick ride on the trainer done or a quick run.

Close your ears Jules...I am thinking of getting a treadmill so I don't have to run on the streets of Chicago at 9 at night

That sounds yummy!  When can I come over?

Maybe we should send a search party in...who is closest to Pennsylvania?

Never mind...I had not gotten to page 80 where Stacie reappeared!

Morning All!  I got my 4 miles in this morning...I am now 27% done for the month YIPEE!

Temp was perfect this morning...but it kept sprinkling...at least it did not really rain

Question of the Day: Does anyone else have a mental block when it comes to going beyond a certain distance?  And if you did and have pushed past it how did you do it?

Mine is the 6 mile mark...I am fine running 5 miles, 6 miles I have done once or twice and am reasonably ok but I (mentally) freak out when I think about doing anything more...I have never gone further than six.
