Sadness

It's been awhile. The holidays have kept me busy. I did great for the Pile on the Miles chaalleng in November. I did 50.61 miles. My goal was 50 miles. There were several times over the month I wasn't sure I w ould meet my goa.. Aches and paines. But I am did it!

I am trying to track for miles both elliptical and treadmill and I haven't been great at it. I have struggled to get to the gym. I seem to be developing a stomach issue if I have too much dairy. And going to the gym with stomach issues is not recommended.

I live in CT, you would have to be in a coma to miss what happened here on Friday. Sandy Hook.  When it all started going down I thought it was a custody issue. No idea that some kid, (a 20 yrd is a kid) could do this. The police believe they have a good idea of the motive but haven't released it. It's hard to beleive something so horrible to happen to kids who just started school. To kids that haven't had a chance to get in trouble yet, to live yet. It is just so sad. I don't know anyone who was hurt but my friends have lost a step sister, a friend from school and more. I just can't imagine it. We are all sad.  It is going to be awhile to feel normal and I am not in Newtown. I can't imagine for the people who live there and those affected by this tragedy. My stupid rantings on weightloss seem so inconsequential.

I am sad. I have no other words to describe and I mourn for those kids and teachers. The teachers did the best they could to help those kids. 1 was shot while trying to hold the door shut, another was shot while protecting her kids.

Again, Sadness.  I think thats all for now.
