Sounds like things are more calm and even harmonious in your house! That's really good news. You've handled things really, really well.
I checked out the Color Run site. I would definitely do it. Too bad they don't have it in CT! I'm sure it'll be fun.
I'll be moving this weekend, but I'll try to fit in a quick bike ride before the movers come. When I ride my bike, even if I feel crappy to start, I end up feeling invigorated. It's not a workout. It's a sanity saver.
