Personal:

I was a single mom.  Two times over.  We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions.  Then, I met a man I didn't deserve.  And he loves me so much.  And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer.  Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now.  But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway.  This is my failure blog now.  Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.  
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.

Stroller miles.   Did 45 minutes weights after at the Y.   Sister in Houston is still safe in a two-story home they evacuated to with family.  Streets are filled with water.  The levee is near breaching.  We are all terrified but a neighbor has a boat and thats the contingency plan

20 loops around post 6 at 0330.  Slow going because the grass needs mowed and my legs are still sore from lifting...not to mention I was really, really deep in the sleep deprivation hole

Intentions were good, made it to the Y, but Val was mopey and acting puny and has a bit of a fever so mission abandoned.  Flying solo with young children as a parent makes consistency quite difficult.
