Well hello!

Had a difficult couple of days, with hormones, tiredness, lonliness, etc all kicking in. Have been seriously worried about Frankie, and still am to some extent, as he is still an outdoor cat - he is responding to strokes and tickles now, and he has popped in for food and cuddles a couple of times. But I would like to see him inside more ( Read more... )

Don't feel any more growed up at all!

Ok, last week I ran 29.48 km! (some of it on the treadmill, but such is life.) This is more than a half marathon. Hope for me yet!

So how many people understood the reference????
Phil would have. And he would have been very excited by it!

Ok: 12:34:56, 07/08/09.  Kind of a special string of numbers, doesn't happen very often, but it happened today, at 12.34pm. (plus 56 seconds, obviously!)

Ok, have been a bad blogger. Not feeling particularly cheery, so hard to be breezy journal ( Read more... )

Sorry no blog. Didn't have anything to say.
Yesterday went to gym, did 40mins cycling, 120 situps, and the body maintenance programme.
Came home, sat in garden and alternated between gentle gardening and sitting reading... Frankie and Peggie both helped!

Small white kitty cat - cute factor huge, but frog and fish murderer. Is serial killer cat. Would quite like to inflict some pain.

Deep Breath.
Ok. Woke this morning, opened curtains, saw fish on path. Went straight out, and he was still alive, but barely. I popped him in a bucket with water, and he died shortly after.  One of Phil's fishes. Am ( Read more... )

Hmm. Not a great run today - left it too late to get up, eat etc, and as a result (is a long complex process) needed a wee whilst running, so much so that I had to stop and pee behind a tree. Lush! This wouldn't have been so bad, I guess, if I hadn't ummed and ahhed about it, as It slowed me down big time, and wasted lots of time. I knew it had ( Read more... )

Blue water. Shops. Clothes. Lunch. Tiny chocolate. Yay!
Felt v thin all day, which will probably mean I've put on weight this week. (it did last time!) have bought some nice new clothes, and running gear - was exhausting, but fun. Walked round and round and round and round Bluewater - and then went to Fiona's house and we walked Topsy the mad doggy ( Read more... )

Bless Amy! Maths isn't your strong point, is it ....?!?

A much better run than the last one, which is just as well, as despair was quite close to setting up its little tent in my psyche after Tuesday's effort...
Internal dialogue this morning before heading to the airfield:

Good me: Right, let's try to run for a little longer today, and go a bit ( Read more... )
