Zonked

Well I am! Totally zonked. Woke up at 2am with belly ache, was still awake at 2:30 so checked my bank account (no cheques being cashed), changed the bed (save me doing it tonight), read and still I was awake! Then the alarm went off at 6.10 and I so didn't want to get up but knew if I stayed "for 5mins" I would fall back to sleep! So I got up again!

So ...Cheque watch continues … don't think anyone has had theirs cashed yet, and people are expecting tomorrow to be D-Day from what I can gather! Not that I am in the least bit bothered if I get in or not … I'm after the reject count (new start as I didn't enter last year - Doh!) and the "sports jacket". I have no doubt that I will be there anyway at mile 17 if not at Blackheath! Glowing green at not being running I expect but there! Unless I can't get a Gnome sitter (he's not coming as he would be a bored nightmare!) in which case I will spend all morning glued to the BBC! But as we all know that just isn't the same is it? You don't get the same sights, sounds and smells as actually being there. The emotions of willing people on, wanting them to take your sweets (that sounds soooo dodgy!) knowing it will help them later. Admiring the speed and grace of the fast runners and the determination of the slower ones and as for the ones in wheelchairs - total respect! >wafts off into own dream world<

On a brighter side the cold is improving already! Phew! So maybe I can get some exercise in soon!! …. >drum roll< I've been for a walk!! Yes indeed I have! The last walk I did resulted in me limping back to my desk but today I walked round the "estate" and although I knew the soreness was there I wasn't limping or altering my gait/foot fall!

The problem with getting fresh air and having lost fitness and having had little sleep is that this afternoon I am struggling! My eyes are heavy! J is busy doing important stuff so I've been left to my own devices and I am too tired to do much! I've been wanting to eat but instead have had some WW mints. I've even walked downstairs and back up all 72 stairs again! I think tonight will be bath and bed for sure!

Tomorrow Gnome comes home complete with the in-laws so mass tidy up, clean, iron, do washing etc! So I had better sleep tonight! I also need to fit a shop in just in case I need to feed people! If Gnome had come home tonight I could have seen v-rap and Josie Jump and Aim High! And all the kiddies but I can't. :-(

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!?!
