a bit pathetic, but at least a start....,

I RAN tonight.
Ok, it was only down the hill to the lights by the local "mine mart", but going down the hill also meant I had to come back up it, right?!!

I took R, but *she* was actually dragging behind (she wanted to do her business, peeing and pooping and smelling the flowers and shit everywhere, while I just wanted to get there and back, lol)

I don't know why, but for some reason today I just felt like I could do it, run, I mean. In all this heat too.....

But I did realise that trying to go for a run on a night when J goes to the gym is just NOT going to work - got home and had to do the shower/bath routine with K, then L started balling just as J was about to head off for the gym, so I ended up hotter after my shower than before it. And everyone was so out of sorts (due to me skipping out for half an hour hence putting back the pre-bed-time routine) that both K and L have really only just got to sleep, affter 10pm! So now I have had 10mins to myself, before J gets home (can hear the car now) and I just realised I still have to iron his freakin' shirts for work. yikes.

Anyway, - bring on tomorrow and Thurs, when J doesnt go to the gym. If my body hasn't "broken" by then, I might try jog again ;-)

  1. you are one nice wife letting him get some 'own time' during the witching hours. I pack a spaz if it's not work related - and at this stage in things, what with actually being pregnant and giving birth twice, he should be coming home early and letting you go to the gym. When do they get it? Humph. But well done for the run :)

  2. oh but totally deserves it as he does soooo much stuff around the house and is always so considerate, changing L's nappies and taking R for walks.....oh, hang on, that is my imaginary hubby ;)

    When do they get it? UMMMMMM NEVER!

    But on the flip side, he doesnt have much in the way of work related stuff.

    But seriously, I try to make him at least do the bath routine and brush K's teeth before he goes to gym, so all I have to do then is synchronise some booby time with L as we read bedtime stories for K.
