Runner’s Guilt

Posted on April 2, 2017 by deconstructingdoctor

Resistance

Posted on February 24, 2017 by deconstructingdoctor

I have a list of diseases that I hate the most. I hate them because I have no way to fight them. I have no power against them. I push back and push back, but they don’t budge. They laugh … Continue reading →

Quilt Therapy

Posted on November 12, 2016 by deconstructingdoctor

It was my husband’s idea. Make a quilt out of your mom’s shirts. Brilliant. As I was cleaning out her room, I couldn’t bear the idea of just dumping all of her things at the Goodwill. There’s nothing wrong with … Continue reading →

Back on Track

Posted on October 18, 2016 by deconstructingdoctor

Runner’s Low

Posted on September 20, 2016 by deconstructingdoctor

Since my mom passed away, running has been harder for me. It’s hard to find the time. It’s hard to get away. She used to watch the kids while my husband and I went to races. Plus it’s near impossible … Continue reading →
