I slept right through to the alarm at 6.30am, just the bestā¦.. and ran 6.5Kms before 7.30am.
I did stop my watch when I thought we were finishedā¦. But noā¦. Back to it.
I ran with the same girls that ran the 10k back in Augustā¦ it was much better weather today!
I loved running this morning. I felt good and comfortable most of the run. thatās two in a row that have gone really well.
Iām so pleased that Iāve got in to regular running and hope it doesnāt get too difficult as the winter sets in.
I was back in the shop this morning which was lovely.
I played with the dogs for a bit when I got backā¦
We have to keep a hold on Khaleesi so she canāt run after the ball. š just lemme go, she says!!
We just have to keep an eye on her all the timeā¦
Who knew the top of my head had gone so greyā¦..
The Gateside Horticultural Society had their flower show today.
Here are some of the stunning exhibits.
I think portrait mode on my new phone can be a bit blurry at timesā¦.
This next one won best in show!
This was the display that we were all routing for! Nancy did the beautiful flower arrangement and Holly did the chocolate mint dessert (WHICH IS NOW IN MY HOUSE FOR LATER!!!!) and Aimee made the LOVELY crochet bookmark. They won third prize!
I canāt rave about the mint chocolate mousse enough š
These leeks were massive!
These photos donāt do the scale any justice. All of the veg is huge š
Now this is a whole lot of kale!! š„¬
The kids did these flower displays.
We ended up in the pub for a couple. Iāve enjoyed seeing our neighbours as we havenāt caught up in a while.
In the list of national days, today is National Sober Day!
Iām so proud to be on day 2,081 of my sober journey. That will be SIX years come January. Itās just a way of life now. One that I am so very proud of. I never would have wanted to stand out from the crowd, to be different, to be socially awkward and yet here I amā¦ š¬ itās what keeps me sane these daysā¦ literally.
Have a great Saturday night!
Stay safe everyone ā„ļøā„ļøā„ļø

Thereās something wholesome and old fashioned about a horticultural show. I seem to remember getting 1st prize for my rock cakes in the Petersham Village Show when I was about 8 years old Xx

Oooh check you, first prize!! š yes, I donāt know how much longer it will go on for as the flowers were half of what they used to be, which is sadā¦ we couldnāt put that down to a bad summer mind you. Xx
