Sniffles

Well I have some good news!

  1. Lost 2lb despite a weekend of being fed and a day in a workshop facing a bowl of jelly beans! So very pleased!
  2. Foot still lingers but still no drugs!
  3. Still resting well!
  4. It's TOTM!

OK so you're confused! Why is resting and TOTM good news? Easy! I also now have a stinking cold so can't ran anyway!

Arrgghh! Head feels like it wants to explode! Nose has that stuffy not quiet blocked thing going on and my eyes ache. Maybe this is why I was feeling so tired and drained at the weekend!

Felt like eating some stodge but instead made some home made soup for tomorrow (hot stodge and low calorie/fat food ideal for "warming up" when feeling pants!). Instead I had Butter Nut Squash "wedges" which is actually roasted BNS but they were really nice! Think I may have them instead of roasted potatoes with Sunday lunch (point free on WW you see!).

Workshop was Ok today. Lots of presentations to do and "being observed" so major wibbles and embarrassment meaning I had a fist fight with the jelly beans .... they won and after far too many E numbers and far too much sugar I calmed down! Note to self jelly beans and nervous Pixie do NOT mix!

No Duck in the end as her shoulder is very sore so she is back to the Drs. To a degree this isn't a bad thing as I can now go and soak in the bath then flop in bed! (Yes I know it's only 9:30 but I have a cold!)

Sweet dreams all!

The Next Three Weeks

So I have a few busy weeks ahead that may, or may not, affect what happens here. So this weekend I am running the Chester metric marathon - should do about 3:30 and get a PB by around 30 mins if things go to plan. Next week I am on holiday and have the in-laws visiting which will be nice. Then after then I have 2 weeks of jury service in Derby. I really want to get a case as I am really interested in knowing what actually happens and what it's like in court. But knowing my luck I will have 2 weeks of waiting for nothing. I have Ami's zoom calls to review and take notes on, books to read, coloring/drawing to try my hand at and Loki to watch! After that the exciting news is my part time request has gone through so from 4th December I will be part time. Very exciting. Then hopefully I can start a potential path to being a swimming teacher. Fun days ahead

What Are You??

Apparently I am a geek after spending some time chatting to a first line support person and comparing degrees!! I am also apparently an executive as I earn more than a certain sum of money! This I must point out is executive in the eyes of a Midlands person and not a southern!! I think I am a runner and a mother because I run and have a son! I don't think I have a career and would struggle to define what I really do! Talking of which I may change the address for this site to blog.html or similar because if I do go job hunting I am not sure if my made ramblings should be front page news!! hehe!! I currently work in IT doing support with a hint of customer service at second line. I run and I'm trying to learn to draw! So what or who are you!?!

Planning Ahead

All good plans and all that! A few weeks ago I detailed my planned races as follows: Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp Feb - Bramley 10m (poss) April - Reading Half April - FLM Support May - Moonwalk Marafun (if I get in!) Sept - Robinhood Half Oct - Great South Run (poss) This is now Jan - Brass Monkey Half Feb - Trail Plus Training Camp April - Reading Half April - FLM Support GSR is only a vague poss now as hubby is working nights so won't get home until the early hours of Saturday so I can't leave Gnome! Which means I would have to travel down Saturday afternoon which isn't the best preparation for a race and PB attempt! So it now looks like I will need to either make this another mainly training year (not a bad thing!) or look for some local races! At this rate it won't be worth joining club in March as I will have nothing to enter and save money off entry fees!! Hey Ho and all that!! Now tomorrow ... hope to do a quick shop 1st thing (new sca...
