Did i mention that its raining! well not so much today thank goodness but apparently more tonight. I at least managed to sit out in the garden, even though i was wrapped up against the wind. I was actually thinking that for the majority of my life i have spent inside! only surfacing to come home from work or for the few hours left in the day afterwards! Lying there with the warmish sun trying to poke through the clouds i thought about the old TB patients, wheeled out onto verandas what ever the weather to try and shift those bugs. Even though it wasn't warm today it was so nice to be in fresh air. That's maybe what it was all about!
Duke isn't the bravest of dogs! a loud noise next door had him vaulting the gate in the middle of the hall, I'm not sure who was more surprised him or me! Still he is only a year old. In fact its a year next Saturday that we bought him home! Still seems like yesterday.
We decided to take Tim's new bike out for a spin and hes still suffering tonight, i say that quite smugly as he has always said , oh it will only take you a few minutes and its not that far. Hum i think he may have another view on that now!
Final day of Ascot today, cant remember the last time i was able to watch ladies day on TV still it was not so nice this year although he fashions always have my attention.
Tim says i want a hair cut! i have said nope I'm growing a pony tail for next years marathon. I always think the runners look faster with their hair flowing or bobbing about. Needless to say i got a few comments about long hair on older women, which i hasten to say i have ignored.
Delivery of my new running shorts today! after seeing those pictures i decided to do a bit of Internet shopping, cousin Ange responsible for that after talking to her late one night on the net. They do look much better, still i thought the others looked OK until i saw the pictures, um now should i stand in front of the mirror, take a photo and see before i step out into the daylight i wonder, maybe i will. Mikey would have been in hysterics at the other ones, or ashamed of me, not sure which, i still haven't let Tim see them!
I have decided to close the door on my other problems, well at least until i hear anymore, its such a drain on me and makes me miserable so why worry, well much!! Its the weekend.
Just read a book, The woman in Black by Susan Hill. A bit creepy but a quick read to pass the time of day.
I'm looking at the carpet and wonder if i should give it a shampoo, no not now because as usual I'm sitting here with a cup of coffee and its quiet, late and the middle of the night!. My time. Its so precious making sure i have time all to me. I have over the past few months ignored my needs and yet its been so beneficial, thinking, pondering and writing.
I'm also looking across at the rowing machine, that's for another day! maybe next week after the hospital visit. I do believe I'm repeating myself.
I did say when i started the blog that i may be able to go back and see how i have progressed on the journey i am on, still feel inclined not to. Too much hurt there and its still raw. Just keep going forward i think.
I really must dig out my passport application form and complete, especially if I'm running in Spain in December, haven't quite made up my mind yet, oh and i suppose it depends on what I'm doing. Ah well fill the form and have no expectations because then i will not be disappointed.
Its the annual Spud Run next week end, i wonder if i will be able to run! i hope so.
It looks like more rain next week but hopefully towards the end of the week its going to be brighter, i hope we can get to the coast for the day.
Crikey i best get and order the Star for the club and hope it arrives for next weekend!
So its to bed with another book! how lovely to be able to read until the wee hours knowing that i can have a lie in, need to look on the positive side of things for now but tomorrow, is another day..............
