Sue had a funeral today to I talked my husband and youngest son into coming up to the trails with me. They biked and I ran. It was nice but I struggled a bit more today. Felt like I could not catch my breath for the first mile, maybe because it's all up hill. But even on the rollers I didn't really feel myself. 

On a personal note I have been very emotional lately. Tearing up at things that I don't think I would normally get teary about. Had a really bad day yesterday when I realized that people I thought were my friends really are not. Brought back all those old feeling of rejection from my past. All the mean girl episodes that I thought I had out grown, I guess being particularly emotional didn't help with this situation. It just leaves you wondering what you did or why you are not acceptible to them. I'm getting teary just trying to write this. I'm sure I will be over this soon.

Oh, I'm sorry Lori. Love you!

All right, who do I get to beat up now?

We have some women that have sweet little cliche's here as well. I've gone down that same road with them. It's taken me a lot of time and mental energy to get over it all. I thought I was out of HS? I mean, really? Why can't we all just be nice to one another and respect our differences? Man, I'm sorry Lori!

I am glad to see you were able to get 5 in, even if they didn't feel the best. It was probably because you wanted/needed Sue there to vent to and chat at, but got the boys instead :)

Sorry to read that you are having a hard time. I really hope this week brings you more peace.

Good job on your 5 miles.

RAD you are so right! One of the days I really needed to have a good vent and run with her, and she needed to attend a funeral :) Oh well I'm sure all my venting can wait til next Saturday.

If I was closer I'd run a few with you, I'm a good vent-e :)
