Is it Wednesday?
So, this is kid-related.
My DS (7 years old) has had a stomach bug since Saturday. Last night, he started vomiting up bright green bile. Not yellow-green, we are talking the color of grass. He had only had water all day, so nothing green.
I called his pediatrician, she says we need to bring him to the children's hospial. We got here about 8pm, and were admitted around 2am. He's dehydrated, his sugars and electrolytes are all off. They've been doing IV fluids all night and repeated his bloodwork about 6am. Now, we are just waiting to hear what is up. He is doing much better this morning. He is keeping down liquids and has perked up a lot. I just want someone to come and tell me if we are going home or staying for a bit. My car is still in the ER lot and needs to be moved, and I need to find some food for myself. Not to mention, I am in the same clothes I slept in and maybe got peed on a little. Yay for pee though!
On top of all this, today is H's last day at his current job. He was throwing up too last night. He has a happy hour to celebrate him tonight, but that's getting cancelled. And I am so far behind at work it's not even funny. My students are probably flipping out right now. At least I know H can stay with DS tomorrow.
Wow. CallingAllAngels I'm sorry that your son is so sick. That really sucks. I hope you get some good news soon and that you get to go home. What a night!
Mine is much more simple: Holy crap my marathon is on Friday. At least right now, I just don't feel like running 26 miles. I clearly have a love/hate thing with the marathon distance.

Your whine is definitely justified! Being in hospitals endlessly sucks. I hope your son and husband get better soon!
Mine: It's snowing...again. It didn't start until 10am, so I had to come into work and will have to deal with a miserable time getting home. If it's going to snow, it damn well better snow good! All these little snow storms just make a mess and offer no benefit to me!
I have been reading more about a-fib and running. It seems there are a few out there who continue endurance sports with a-fib...but a lot slower. I am really struggling to deal with the fact that I probably won't ever PR again. I have a hard time running without that kind of challenge. I had to drop out of Shamrock this year. I'm thinking about a May race to have something to motivate me to run b/c I don't think I've even run 20 miles yet this year...

My knee tightened up during an interval run last night. I'm clearly seriously injured, never going to run more than 3 miles again, and my Boston appearance is in jeopardy.
My whine is I don't have time for socializing this week. I'm leaving to go out of town tomorrow and need to leave work as soon as possible. However, one of my work BFF's birthday is Sunday and he will be at my site tomorrow. So I should just take him to lunch tomorrow, cause logistically it makes sense. But if I do that I won't get on the road till 4:30 and traffic will suck.
Maybe it's because I'm sick right now, but I think I'm about to the end of my yoga practice for this pregnancy. I feel like I've hit a wall. My body is so uncomfortable, and I'm just a day short of 34 weeks. I feel like it's too early
I'm just whiny because I'm tired and don't want to do paperwork (hence why I'm here). The tired is my fault for participating in a 7 mile progressive run this AM, but I still wanna whine.

Annual physical inventory at work is going to impede my long run this weekend. I need 18 on Saturday and 8 on Sunday. And I'll be working 13 hour days.
Sorry your little one is sick CallingAllAngels. I hope he and your H start feeling better soon!
I have a few rational/irrational fears about things happening and screwing up this IVF cycle. I can't wait til my first u/s Monday so I know what's going on in my ovaries right now.

I can completely understand that. I think my exercise more or less stopped at 34 weeks. I know many people run on the day that they deliver and all, but I just wasn't one of them and I suspect that I'm not alone. It will be ok!

Bummer. Do you have to help count bits and pieces? Can you do the 18 and just say stuff it to the 8? <-- Slacking enabler here

I totally remember getting to that point. FWIW, I got a late pregnancy surge of energy a week later, and it kept me going until the end. Even if that doesn't happen for you, it's great that you've kept it up this long, so just focus on what a good job you've done!
I am pissed at my yoga studio. I asked in December to cancel my monthly membership, because surgery and restrictions and I knew when I was cleared, I'd do less yoga and more tri training. The owner wrote it all down, and left it for the manager.
I just got my CC statement. They didn't cancel. And I'm past the deadline to cancel for Feb billing. I'm pretty salty right now over this.
Thanks brit & theoriginalbean - I'm hoping that I might have a couple of weeks left once I kick this gross cough. But, if I don't, I appreciate the commiseration.
Maybe flame worthy -- I'm really just afraid that I will gain like crazy if I stop, even though I am really happy with my gains for the pregnancy overall, and I have little appetite at this point anyway. Idk, maybe I'm being ridiculous,
My running friend was on the fence about this morning's run. I could have absolutely tough loved her ass out there, but I caved. I feel so awful giant, and dreadful this week I just want to wallow.

CallingAllAngels I hope your son is feeling better soon and you can get out of the hospital.
I'm just in a funk lately and just everything is irritating me, where's the kitty gif of f this, f that, yeah that's me. I can't wait to run tonight, it's supposed to be an easy run but I have a feeling I'm just going to let my body do what it wants and it will end up being a hard run.

CallingAllAngels and cinco - I hope your LO's feel better soon. I've been in the exact same situations as both of you with DS and it stinks.
I'm feeling blah lately. I've been having a hard time falling asleep at night and staying asleep and its getting to me. Someone suggested reading before bed so I ordered a book from amazon about running and motivation.
My whine is totally a work whine. I have to rely on so many people to get things done at the company I work for, and it's like nobody talks to each other in our home office. It's really making those of us who work directly with our "customers" look like we're complete idiots.
Also, I'm so tired. Why do grownups frown upon afternoon napping?
