I slept really well.

I woke at 6.50am.

I knew I was on my own for a run this morning and I talked to myself for a while…. I could soooo easily have stayed in bed and not moved. Equally I knew I’d be annoyed with myself if I didn’t go out.

So, up I get and out I go.

I wrestled with the route in my head for ages…. I just wanted to turn around and go home. I tried to run a bit faster than I usually do…. Until I met a dog in Spiers Old School grounds… and it walloped me a big kiss!

Despite stopping for a quick chat, I ran my fastest 5k.

I am so proud of myself.

I can’t believe I managed my fastest run on my own. The girls usually drag me around. I’m so chuffed.

It’s colder this morning than it’s been in the past few weeks but I still ran in just a T-shirt (not “just T-shirt” for those of you who went there!!)

Straight back out with the dogs for a quick run up the hill.

Jeez I took no photos at all this morning! It’s fine though, you’ve seen it all before.

Then back off to the little gift shop and had the best morning. so many lovely people and it was really busy.

If you had told me a few years back that I’d be alcohol free, fasting every day. pretty much veggie and running 2 x 5k plus runs a week, I’d have never have believed you!

My life has changed so much these last few years.

I’m so much more in control of everything I do now.

If I read that paragraph above, about anyone else, I’d think that sounded way too much like hard work. Not drinking, fasting blah blah… Yet for me it’s become such a way of life. It just is what it is now.

I love nothing more than a Saturday or Sunday morning with a hangover. I have so much more time on my hands.

I love fasting. It helps me control my food intake. I’ve found it so easy from the start.

I know what works for some, doesn’t work for everyone but I think I’ve finally found what works for me.

Love this from Tiny Buddha!

I’m having a lazy afternoon with the puppers…. Check Khaleesi’s nose against my leg and her wee legs… bless her.

She moved and got even more cute!

Craig will be home later and we’re doing date night MKII…. As we have so much food left.

It was nice to eat together, we don’t do that often enough.

Hope you all have a great rest of weekend.

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
