Yes Creamie it's hard to fit in the marathon training over the summer, but it keeps me out of mischief!
Have you thought about a tabletop/small dishwasher if you don't have much washing up? Will save your hands
Wow, 20 for a BBQ. I'd get a catering company in
<waits for invite to the BBQ.....>
;-)
i need help. i have a pedometer so i can do my 10K steps a day. yesterday and today i think i have managed 14/ not 14 thousand but 14. today i have sat at my desk from 7.20 this morning until 7.10 this evening. i have gone downstairs for a pee twice and once to collect a client. that is the sum total of my exercise. i have eaten toast for breakfast and roastbeef and salad baguette for lunch and an egg mayonnaise sandwich for supper and a bag of grapes.
i am tired beyond belief of course. help help. i need 400 hours a day of course but i have to get out there and so something or die. i also need to work.
*sob*
i also had my stupid bookeeper banging on about our software and explaining about posting to this and that ledger and what happens - like i either understand or care. jus tproduce the bloody results. i wouldn't mind but she reviewed the dam software,and ok'd after i said we wouldn't have unless she was a 100% happy.
*sob sob*
and the worst thing was a stupid solicitor who told me my client was inflexible and unreasonable (mother) despite the fact that a consultant psychiatrist had just described her client (father) as rigid and unempathic and that the children had described 'movingly and painfully' what they had suffered at the hands of her client
*sob sob sob*
As for bookkeeper, point out that she was the one who reviewed the software and she was the one who was happy with it so tough if she doesn't like it now! Put up and shut up I'd say!
As for stupid solicitor, well, take solace in the fact that they are stupid, inhuman and downright thick. Not like you my dear, who has compassion in spades, to the detriment of her mental health!!
CC, contributions will be of the liquid variety and trust me, I'll get a reasonable amount of food but won't go mad, a boozy affair is what this is likely to be.
Bodgit, you can come....erm.... bring potato salad, green salad, pasta salad........!
desk/tready oh pulease.
musn't cross the bookeeper
can i come to BBq too roz i can bring toast, sandwiches, anything that is surrounded by 2 pieces of bread.
going to bed now.
would love to talk to you all tonight but sooo tired and have to be in office again at 7 ish tomorrow morning and in court by 9. stupid client who calls me 'hun' every other word and who whines about her bad back her depression he cruel husband whose name is actually elvis and who has actually left the building, in the afternoon.
i wonder if elderly husband will be back soon to keep me warm.....*wanders off in the direction of upstairs*
((Francy))
Now..if you only peed twice, you certainly have not been drinking enough! Not enuff fruit and veg, not enuff protein to feed those muscles, and not enuff fresh air!!
...and listen hun, <ducks> you need to take a break every so often...no, don't interrupt me, hun, I know this will be difficult if you are in court, but when stuck in the office, you need to get out for a brisk 10-15 min walk every few hours, now I know you will read this, and think you cannot afford the time, but take 10-15 mins out, oxygen to the brain, which will help to combat the tiredness, and a fresher mind, so being able to tackle the tasks with more vigour...go on....try it
As for the book keeper and everyone else who whinges....extermination comes to mind ;-))
Well, I went out and woggled for 30 mins, GPS was flat! and swam today, and now need a week off to get over the shock!!
Am feeling chipper today, maybe the new running shoes perked me up!
Nice to go and look to see what suits my odd gait (not many do!).
Will also browse the running gear too
We still did our planned run though - 3.12miles. Not a great distance but a nice route - along a footpath which winds past Tilsley Park, Abingdon, up over the A34 turn left and up a field through a hedge and then across another field and down a grass slope into the lovely village of Sunningwell. Turn left after kissing gate and footpath by side of someone's house then follow the road out to the Wootton Road. Then left down Wootton Road, left at roundabout and back to Tilsley Park. Still hot out though... Ran in shoes I haven't run in for a while and I can tell that the ones I usually run in are the right ones for my flat feet! I have a few aches in feet and shins I don't usually have after a run so will ditch those and carry on in my usual ones.
Been to hairdressers and am gawjuss again....no more grey!
No luck on Match.com yet!!!!!
<collapses in heap>
CC your run sounded nice
No badminton tonight as Mr Bodjit ended up working late, and we are on grandparent duties for 2 days, so couldn't really shut Jacob in the under stair cupboard and go off ;-))
Not sure how I'm going to manage in the morning.....military precision I reckon, Jacob to nursery, car to garage and be at work for 8.30......
francy, how are you today....??
Sounds like a good deal there, Roz
Well, I managed to get to work on time, sat outside at the garage after collecting Jacob, for about an hour, Jacob fell asleep, and I could have done the same!
lots of stuff going on here. tai chi classes running blimey anyone would think this is a running forum or summink
i had a lady in today bin married 41 years.....wants a divorce. little mousey thing she was. said things were not good at home and really needed to get out.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh pooor thing i here you say.
then she said she had found someone else......
ah i hear you say.
then she said
actually she had been having an affair with the someone else for 20 years.....
i c i said
which was marginally better than the chap who marched in and said before we start i had better tell you i haven't had an erection in 4 years.....not sure what he wanted me to do about that
ok enough rambling, this is avoidance technique. i am avoiding admitting that my outing this evening with adam and lunatic dogs was an absolute disaster. the farmer had cut the field so trying to run through knee deep hay wasnt good nor was the fact that i was just crap really.....
erm, its not a running forum is it???????
eeeeeeeeeeeeek!!
Well, at least you got out, more than I have
CC, that was a good session
5.72 miles run tonight. Should have been 'easy'!! When has it ever been easy?!?!?!
Am dreading alledgedly 18 mile run this weekend after disaster of run on Sun! <sigh>
Once had to adjourn a case (it wasn't my trial thank goodness), so that a man accused of being a perve could arrange for doctors to attach things to his knob overnight, in order to prove, by the lack of 'morning glory' at any stage, that he couldn't get it up and ergo whoever says he had a raging stiffie when he was up to no good must be a liar. I wouldn't fancy seeing my inadequacies written up in a report - but i suppose it beats spending a couple of years segregated with the nonces.
Playtime
Loving the smilies!
Hope you're all OK!
Have cut the grass and done some pruning.
Have also pruned pussy..
Of feline variety! lol!
Went out for a run with eldest little CC. I did small loop on my own then came back and picked him up for the loop we did a week ago Monday. He suffered in the heat
I'm wondering whether the loop is too long or whether I need to adjust the run/walk time (at the mo we're doing 3min run/1min walk).
Happy Friday evening everyone! Have a great weekend - I'm supposed to be running 7miles with someone on Sunday morning - my longest run yet! Wish me luck!
