Happy New Year!?
How can it be the end of January already?

So much going on...

That committee I'm serving on? It blew up politically just as I predicted.

December -- fun Christmas but about 5 weeks of ilness going around in circles in the house.

Didn't make 1,000 miles last year. Still running though. Gained more weight than I care to admit. Working on taking it back off.

More to say but kids to pick up. Got to play in the snow with them this morning.

I have so many thoughts bouncing around in my head -- want to connect with others. I actually feel a little lonely inside.

My life appears good externally. Internally, not so much. Stressed, lack of focus, lack of sleep, lack of direction. Hard for me to write b/c I don't want to whine...my life is certainly better than more than 5 billion other people. How can I complain?

Gotta go, will try to catch up.

I can't tell whether or not whining is healthy.

As for running, start by getting good running shoes. Then begin walking for 20-30 minutes a day, 5-6 days a week. After a week or two, run slowly for about 5 minutes of the walk. Do that for a week or two. Then make it 10 minutes. Then 15. And so on. Build up slowly and listen to your body. You'll feel creaks and aches at first but usually they go away if you have good form and are wearing good shoes.

Hi, I think about you often. Hope the school thing has been going well -- I haven't had time to keep up with what is happening in your life (I can barely keep up with my own!). But I do often wonder.

Hi! I've missed you too. No joke. You are more of a friend to me than most people I see on a daily basis. I hope all is going well -- I'm going to have to read and catch up a bit!

4 more months of academic hell for me, then off to the real world! Yay! Have an awesome job lined up and everything.

Take care of yourself. That's an order.

Congratulations on passing through the ring of fire called graduate school.
