Sunday: I awake on Sunday morning to two very tired little girls.. I decided to let them have a rest as they were doing netball training in the afternoon. I was excited by the thought of riding my bike into town to return the DVD's.. so off I went, leaving the girls to watch cartoons and eat me out of house and home.. I was quite surprised that it only took me an hour and a half.. not a bad ride.. I discovered it is a ride I can do with the kids as it is mostly on footpaths/cycleways. It will also give me an opportunity to teach them about road safety.
I get home and collapse into the hammock for a little snooze.. Can't wait for Monday and our designated rest day..Think I may little strain in my thigh muscle so the rest day will be good.
Monday: I am resting.. If you can call washing, vacuuming, cooking and working from home resting. No nanny nap today.
Tuesday: The girls and I decided that we will go for a good ride after school and work as we all have sore legs. So both girls and complaining after school... I'm tired.. do we have to go.. So here is where I am proud of myself.. It could have been easy to say sure no worries, we can not do any exercise today.. but I went and changed into my new magic pants.. (Thanks Ma..** I love my new exercise clothes) I came into the lounge and said.. I am going for a ride... If you are coming with me you will need to get changed now.. So bless her, Gem jumped too and got changed. Courts decided that she would stay at home and do her homework. Although me thinks she watched telly until she heard me open the garage.. Gem and I rode to Coles at the Park Centre to get some eggs and got the time down to 1 hour.. I am still not sure how far, will have to get Courts out for a ride to measure with her bike. But we rode quite hard to do it in the hour, so arrived home feeling very happy.
Today the girls have netball training after school and I had planned to go running around the oval during their training.. However Aaron called lasts night to say his shift has changed and he is now coming home on Thursday.. So emergency trip to the beautician tonight because he can NOT see me in this condition.. So I scooted out for a quick run/walk/jog at 5.30am this morning.. Very dark, cold and creepy so I kept it down to a 4km block..
Daily Quote: Wonder who I can borrow a big ar*e dog from when I go exercising early morning in the dark..?
