I am very pleased to report that I am continuing to manage a run every other day even in this magnificent heat wave. In fact, I think I quite like running in these temperatures. Even when I'm drained of all energy and can hardly put one foot in front of the other.
This week Running Forever had to wait for me, I almost ran the whole way but it was a slow old trudge! I was grumpy Friday evening when I set off UP through Thurlbear Woods, I walked a little but there were lots of walkers and riders and I managed to keep going when in view of them. Once home my grumpiness had gone. This morning I tried to get out before the heat was high, however a late night last night put the kaibosh on that plan. The tarmac was hot and every breeze was gratefully received.
Tomorrow is the last day for children to be in school and thankfully it's a mufti day so shorts and sleeveless top will be the order of the day. I have a million things to do. I really don't know where to start. I think maybe today I should have gone out and purchased a fan, a big one! Oh well I'll keep plodding until the job is done.
The final get up is for the inservice day on Tuesday. A mammoth task lies ahead. An impossible task lies ahead. Much building is happening at school. Many rooms are being swapped and changed for new uses. I have to completely take apart the computer suite where I currently work. I cannot move the computers to their new locations as their new locations are not ready. I cannot move into my new work space as even when the room is empty I have to wait for my new desks to be made. There is nowhere to put anything. It is going to be quite a conundrum.
After work I am meeting up with my lovely friend who lives in Tanzania. I will also get to meet her third son, Matthew. And that evening my next run is planned. So maybe you'll forgive me for my first day of the summer holiday plan...
On Wednesday I am doing nothing. Except for sitting or lying in the shade of our wild willow tree with an iced drink, my iPad, book and magazine. If you need me, I probably wont hear you. With the exception of Vicki of course, if she calls I'll be out of here at top speed!
I hope today went as planned. See you saturday. X
ReplyDeleteIt did thank you, but I'm really out of sorts so it didn't feel as good as it should have! Looking forward to Saturday x
