Sunday was the day of Thorney run. It was another hot day and it was anew route for us. It was as well the first away race, very worrying. Anyway we got to Thorney in good time and my word there was a lot of people. We managed to get to the front for the start, well that would be only time we would be out in the lead. It didn't last long. It was an amazing sound hearing all those feet running past, i cant believe how well we did. 58 Min's for the 5 miles. We were really pleased.
Tim thought i did well and i then slept for about 3 hours!!! still found it hard to come to for the rest of the day!!! Oh and my ankle bones were sore!! And we didn't come last, yippee!!!

| After |
Work on Monday and we had another surprise visit from our internal validators and they remained here for two days!!! Everything went a bit pear shaped and the work generated from that has been quite significant. I fell into bed early last night for a change.
Today has just as manic and i think i will book some leave! at least some quality time with Tim. Yesterday he said never mind the dog, he would bite me when i come home soon!! In otherwise I'm becoming a stranger!
We have spent a lot of time in the evenings reflecting on what we have done and where we hope to be in the future at the same time recognising that we are both struggling to see too far ahead. Mikey remains so much in our thoughts. Tonight Tim laughed at Mikey's casket and said I'm sure that's moved! i think Mikey must be getting out at night and having a dance around. Mikey would have enjoyed the thought of Tim joking. He had such a lovely sense of humour and couldn't be serious for long.
Tim's sister has been round to see him and today Tom called again just to see if everything was OK. Tim said Tom seemed a bit happier in his mood today.
I have been blogging for almost a year now and it really has been a great comfort to me. I have allowed myself to get my feelings off my chest and I'm sure it has enabled me to be where i am today.
A year!!! it seems like yesterday. Yet it seems forever. Strange to think like that.
Certainly there is no right or wrong way to grieve. We all cope differently and its a very individual process. I still wear different faces for work, home, socially etc. Its another way of coping. Running has also been such a positive thing for me to do, it also helped the week to go by.
I think the next step will be to get an estate to take Duke out with us. He has helped us so much, especially Tim. He is growing and becoming quite a character
Well it will soon be time for work, misery has left me alone for a few days, gone on to another victim, shes tiring of me because i can tell when she is getting close. I expect she will pounce when my guard is down, but not today!! but.......... tomorrow is another day!
