Yes, that’s me. But it’s only because I’ve been working (really hard) – so no time for idle blogging in the workplace. And, with the recent changes to my blog set up, I’ve found it hard to remember where it is that I actually post new entries. Not that I’m ditzy or anything. Or maybe […]

Today Justine and I (and Maisie) trained by ourselves at the park based upon a series of instructions SMSed to us from Adam. Seemed to go OK. And, post-solstice, the morning did seem brighter. Although that may have been my imagination. Hmmm, he had better not be charging us for the session.

I have two lovely new pairs of shoes. They’re my favourite ‘mary janes’. A black pair and a burgundy pair. Comfortable and stylish. (I think so anyway.) One day I’ll wear one burgundy shoe and one black shoe – just to see if anyone’s paying attention.

Yes, it was a nice morning. I noticed it when I got up at 10 past six. I noticed it in the car on the way to the park. I noticed it as I ran around the oval to ‘limber up’ for the training session with Adam. I noticed it as I hung out on […]
