It’s 6.30pm and I’m sitting outside in shorts and a vest top….. finally. It feels so good to feel the sun on my skin!
I know I had sunshine in Rome, but it’s been a cold start to the year in Scotland. Anyone who’s here on holiday now is soooooo lucky!!
You can imagine I’m like a caged lion… where can I go, what can I do this weekend?!?!
Unfortunately Craig is working all day tomorrow and is out all day on Saturday so I really need to puppy sit my own dogs. 🐶🐶🐶🐶
I have looked at campsites for Saturday night but not sure if there’s much point in setting up camp again for one night. Hmmmm decisions…. Right now I’m very happy sitting out on the decking and feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin.
This is my current view!
I had a lovely wee night out in Largs, last night, with the Crochet Hookers.
We went to the Wetherspoon’s Paddle Steamer for dinner. It was really busy when we got in but the food is so cheap. The whole evening only cost less than £15 a head. I had vegan pizza which was surprisingly lovely, with hot chocolate and shortbread for afters. The hot chocolate was £1.76 and free refills. The shortbread was 71p!!!!
We did get a right good natter though. It was lovely to have a change of scenery.
It rained when we left so I couldn’t get any decent photos!
I actually really like this next one after I said that.
It was 9.30pm…. Way past my bedtime.
I set my alarm for the 5.45am run club, fully intending to be too tired and to roll over in bed, instead of going.
Last night was the first night of HRT progesterone for 2 weeks….. I was completely out for the count. I slept like a log all night. The alarm went off, I got up and had one of the best runs with Elly and Lynsey. Lynsey was photographer today!
Not sure I like my rear in this pic but I’m going to embrace it and then buy black leggings….
Lynsey has it ingrained in us that we have to touch the white line at the end of the road in Gielsand Estate!! We do it even when she’s not there.
I love this next one she took of Elly and I! It captures the sunrise run mood perfectly!
We did 5k exactly and I loved every minute of it.
It was so much easier than yesterday. I ran straight into a very cool shower again!
As I washed I really stopped to think about how far I’ve come and it brought some tears of gratitude.
I’ve come such a long way from the days where I could barely put one foot in front of the other even to walk the dogs.
I love the friendship of the run club girls. I appreciate their support and their encouragement. I love that I run so much further with them, than I would do on my own. I love the feeling of accomplishment. I love getting up early and running before everyone gets up.
I felt so alive this morning.
Fast forward to the half shut knife I am now… struggling to stay awake!! 😂😂
It’s been a good week at work too. It’s gone quickly and I’ve enjoyed it.
I made another lovely Planthood meal tonight….
This was one of the best I’ve had, if a little bit spicy! It tasted soooo good!
This is my latest view….. throwing a tennis ball as I type.
Will be an early night for me tonight I think. Hopefully a blissful progesterone induced sleep!
Stay safe everyone ☀️🏴☀️
