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.

Parked at Vanessa's school in the afternoon heat for a few slow miles.  Clearly I wasn't awake all the way, because I hopped out of the car, locked it, and got about 20 feet down the road before it dawned on me that I had just locked myself out of the car with no phone.  Crap.  Nearest spare key was Mom's house where I could get in through the garage.  Terrified that I would not make it back in time before my Beautiful got out of school and stood around wondering where her mommy was, a sub-20 5k ensued, interrupted by a quick dash into the house to procure the key.  As it turns out, I was back in plenty of time and jogged a few very slow miles by the school to cool down.  Odd way to start a taper.
