We have been asked by Cadet to start a new thread for your "5K training" thread. Since this thread was your idea (along with Claire7), you should have the honors.
Still a bit cold where I am. Waiting for 60s-70s weather to really start running again.
On another note:

He had a smile that was warm and beautiful and utterly sexy. I have not seen it in a very long time. He doesn't look like he can produce it anymore, which makes me sad.
My W used to say something similar about my smile. I have to remember to smile more. I have become so sullen. Sometimes I catch myself in the mirror, NOT smiling - not attractive at all.

D12 keeps telling me to smile, and I feel badly about that. There is SO MUCH work to be done, and so much uncertainty in our life. I try to relax when I get home, spend time connecting with the kids, but they just mob me and talk over one another till everyone ends up yelling, including me. They all want a piece of me at the same time. I want each of them to have some attention from me and I'm so tired and I'm tired of having to nag for what I need.
I just want to offer some words of encouragement. I am sorry you are having a rough time. As I have seen many times before on the board, you are a rock for your children. You have a lot to be proud of.
As for me, I want to remembered as someone who was always smiling, regardless of the challenges I faced. I have heard more than once that our behavior can dictate our emotions. Also, I do not give my WAW the satisfaction! I am going to make a conscious effort to smile more. Aside from cheering me up, it'll makes people wonder what I am up to It is one of the few things in my life over which I actually have control right now.
