Dammit. I just spent forty-five minutes collecting my thoughts and sharing them for you and lost the whole dang thing. RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I hate that. My server goes off line when I am idle for too long and when I hit the quick reply tab to post it I loose everything. I'm going to call my server and gripe! I never had this problem with MSN.

Anyways, I just wanted to say I'm glad the marathon is over. I think you might be asking too much of yourself to be a wife, mother, full time teacher, and a marathon runner. I ask too much of myself and just get overwhelmed and feel defeated when I can't do it all. It's just like being hungry and ordering a huge meal and not being able to finish it all. Some things are just not humanly possible. Some things are not worth the anxiety or damage to one's mental health either. Be easy on yourself. I have been easy on myself lately and found that it makes life a much more pleasurable experience!
