hope things aren't as dire as they might be. still keeping you guys in my thoughts/prayers. I would say your h is at rock bottom or as close as he can get to it. hopefully its just a wake-up call and doesn't end up affecting you in any way.
soooo proud of you about the race! will be thinking of you!!!!

The race is only a week away. I'm participating too....but walking not running. This will be my first time. I'm interested to see the amount of people that participate....I've heard it's amazing. Have a good day!

Hope!! Maybe we'll see each other down there!! I'll have my cell phone. Its crazy crowded (park at your office), but really really wonderful, the reason everyone is there. I have only ever walked in it (with my office, a 31 yr old coworker is a bc survivor and everyone walked/ran the first year). NO WAY would I ever run with my office, they are all totally fit. I'll stick with my roommmate from college, and we'll probably go to lunch afterwards.
No lunch today, my friend. I am sorry but we'll get there.
Gypsy, love but don't fix. Yes. Wow. I love your words.
tal, thanks. H never heard from his boss, maybe he has one more chance. I guess he'll find out tomorrow when he reports (or doesn't!)
Jeff, Yes, the Komen Race. You weren't around when my bomb hit last summer, but H and OW secretly ran this race together. It was my H's first race, and I (blindly) took the kids downtown to cheer him on. When H found out we were there, he separated from OW for a stretch, came up, kissed the kids, brought them treats, and met up with OW down the road a bit. I didn't know this until weeks later. I made a goal to run it this year, for myself.
Oh and funny! Big River Running is about 5 miles from my house. Got my last pair of running shoes there!!! Small world!
lwb sounds like the drama in my sitch, not the same type of drama, but never ending drama all the same.
I hope I can get to where you are. Loving detachment is very hard and I'm still pretty bad at it. Its hard to watch them self-destruct.
I like the words though - love but don't fix...thats good.
