Would that we were - oh wait, you mean them. Okay then....
Well, having them gone will make the Mt. Tam Double just that much more fun. Not that I am trying to push you into it or anything...

I want to do Tam. I guess I'm just a little gun shy about committing after DMD. I really thought I had it in me to finish - slowly, but to finish. Shall we say the confidence level has taken a bit of a hit.
I'll get over it.

You'll get over it. Have fun at Davis. Do a few 200ks. You'll be fine for Tam. You could do it now. The sustained climbing is over with after you do Tam. After that, there aren't any climbs that I can recall that are more than about 4 miles long, and most are shorter.
Of course, in retrospect, childbirth is looking like a magical experience....Sarah

LOL! Crazy girl! Of course you're a great mom so you have my permission to have more.

Yeah - you are in a position to see the best and worst, I'm sure.... I can just imagine some of what you see from what I see just volunteering at school and working field trips. And what I hear from PP. Originally Posted by Veronica

Kids aren't perfect - who is? But in my "perfect" world, they would have compassion for others and a sense of responsibility hard wired into them. I don't care if they can't spell goes (gose) or tell me what 3 X 7 is if they have those other traits.

Mine are sneeking back because the bike is missing.
Oh well, the bike'll be back soon. That'll scare'em off.
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.
