    3. Dark hair...well, it used to be much darker.

    How You doin'?
    And yes, I understand that this is not the selfie thread, the three things thread, or the beard thread.
    I confess that I don't care.

    Is your house leaning or is the picture crooked? lol

    House and picture fine. Phone and I are leaning.

    <3
    I know how hard that can be. And its still hard for me. Try to go to your happy place for a minute here, and a minute there. Have you ever done that? Mines the rink or the beach. Because after hours and hours and hours of trying to heal and fix my loved one, theres not really much more I can do to fix it.

    I confess I HATE being such a feeling person. I get SO. DAMN. TIRED. of feeling all the feelings all the damn time.

    I get this totally..

    For me, it was not till my girls were grown and I aged 10 more years till I let go of all the fealz stuff..

    There is one bonus for me getting older and is I am not carrying stuff around and I have the ability to let things roll off my back.

    Just be kind to yourself, and fealz are important.. they mean you care and love hard.

    I let people get to me way too much. And usually they don't even know it.
    I'm so tired of letting feelings control me.

    People rarely know they have an effect on you. Self confidence is key, insecurities can be a hindrance. We all have them. Learning proper coping skills is key. Think of all the positive attributes and qualities you posses.

    Let your family and friends help you when you need to unload, vent or need help working through something.. Problem solving skills will get you very far. You do not have to carry any burden alone. Let your family and friends in! I promise when you let go of what ever or who ever it is at the moment in your path, the world is open to all possibilities.

    Heck you can throw spit balls at me if you want to! I can take it. :):)

    I'm pretty confident but I over analyze everything. I'm a hybrid weirdo.
    Thanks for your words of wisdom Roxie.
    I'll be fine tomorrow. I'm gonna go sweat it out and then have a beer.

    Oh, wow.. did this hit close to home.

    The thing is, you can't fix it; so much is beyond our control and all we can do is support the healthy and never enable the converse.

    Accepting this can be damn near impossible without a large amount of second guessing.

    Although I would never consider myself a control freak, I HATE when things are beyond my control. When nothing I can say or do will make things better. It's excruciating.

    we are of the same tribe.

    you have kids, don't you?

    one of mine has driven me to the brink of clinical depression with acute anxiety (and there's nuthin' cute about it neither)

    Not being able to help someone when they're hurting kills me too. We both have big hearts.

    Can't you do it on treadmill?

    I tried it on the treadmill, and I can't get the thing to switch speeds very easily. And I find it easier outside, anyway. It's not the outside I'm dreading, it's the running. ;)

    Working with the treadmill gets some getting used to..

    I hate that you are dreading something that you have put your heart and soul into.. Think about where you will be this time next week and the next?

    True. I was pretty damn proud of myself after day 1... I hope there's a repeat surge of endorphins.

    Ahhhhh...... gotcha. My treadmill switches pretty fast, but then again, I don't run that much faster than my fast walk. lol Get out there an do it missy! I'm here to kick your butt.

    The plan is to go do it as soon as the kiddo is in bed. Running outside around a dark parking lot... Woo.

    I think I'm dreading it because I'm not *good* yet, and I have a nagging inner perfectionist that really hates that.

    BUT YOU WILL BE GOOD AT IT... keep at it, getting the gear on and shoes laced is half the battle.. But you have to enjoy it.. have fun..the latter is the most important to any exercise..

    The runners high will not be felt every run.. sometimes you are off that day and things are not perfect.. But don't let that ever stop you!!!! You can do it.. I am cheering you on!

    Be safe running in the dark! We have a serial abductor/attacker roaming around my area. I took my huge kid out with me to walk the dog. So if the dog wasn't enough of a deterrent hopefully my huge son is.

    I live in the middle of nowhere, with a very paranoid ex military neighbor that walks around with a gun open-carry on his hip. It's how he welcomed us when we moved in. Ha! I feel pretty safe. :)

    No, but I did just have about 8 tablespoon fulls with chocolate chips. Inner fat kid is making yummy sounds and rubbing his belly.

    I wish I was better with words and could do a better job of cheering people up when they are down. It makes me sad to see someone else hurting when I don't have the ability to help at all. :(

    Same here :(

    I confess that I have trust issues & it takes time for me to warm up to anyone but once you win my trust, I'll stick with you through thick & thin BUT WARNING: I have a tendency to get vindictive & will plan to get even if you hurt or betrayed me.

    I confess that I care waaaaay too much about what other people think and I let it get to me. I need to be more confident in myself and learn to not be so insecure.......
