Hello PammyJean, I do understand what you mean by hurling the nearest large appliance and I’ve really made a point of keeping track of how I feel every month. Since Ive done that I can actually figure out more or less when / why I’m feeling overwhelmed. I find I can judge what I need to eat or stay away from…also, my family is a little safer from my unpredictable behaviour 
. I dont have small munckins anymore but we all do get our period at the same time so my husband probably suffers more than anyone else. I have spoken with my dr and well it’s always the same…it is only a couple of days in the month and it’s not worth changing the meds. I do find I stay away from caffeine / wine during that time and find I need to work out a lot more.
Half a marathon, excellent…who cares about the house as long as you don’t find a extra child all is good…keep us posted on how you are doing. I’ve competed in the world master games in Edmonton – I was involved in the sprinting, 100, 200, 400 and played soccer and it was so much fun…I have to give you absolute credit because we had to run 5 k every week and I hated the long distance. So…good job. I did medal in the relay races and a bronze in the 100 and silver in the 400…we are set to go to the Italy games.
Bye for now!!
Elizabeth
