Well, I've got over my frustration and my previous post being deleted as I was finishing it up...I made the bed and the poor duvet had my anger taken out on it...but all is well...I'm guessing that I wasn't supposed to post that last one.
Readers Digest Version...I didn't clean the house on Saturday although the washing was done and the bed clothes changed and mattress flipped...so it's something. Smiley sorted his share out and cleaned the kitchen and hoovered today.
I also didn't run on Sunday as Scheduled...But will run on Wednesday, rain or shine...Actually I like running in the rain...it's lovely and cool!
I have reasons why I didn't complete these tasks...things that I so desperately want to do but have trouble actually getting the motivation to do them. But that is besides the point...they aren't very good reasons and bottom line...I was lazy and didn't do it.
The past week I've found myself feeling in a bit of a slump...and I'm not sure why. I thought it was because I wasn't getting out enough but I don't think thats it. I've yet to put my finger on it. For those of you who do pray...I could do with one for guidance...or uplifting, something but I'm not sure what.
Today was a good day although I'm feeling very tired now (it is 20 past 10...so it's expected). We went with friends of ours, Noel and Julia and their daugher Elizabeth to Mole Hall Wildlife park. the weather wasn't great and I had a text from Noel at 10 asking me if the rain would stop. We did luck out and the rain pretty much held out for us except for one short shower where we found shelter. The ground was awfully muddy but fun was had by all.
Here is a picture of Elizabeth in the mud after trying to chase some ducks.
After it had stopped raining Elizabeth decided that she wanted a "brollie" so I gave her mine...so cute!
Smiley and Noel joined in with the fun and games and had a go on the see-saw...I'm pretty sure it wasn't build to withstand the weight of two grown men...Look how it bows!
So I got a second chance to post this blog...We often get second chances in life...and we should seize them with all we've got!
I'm still frustrated with the lack of stuff I did this weekend (other than feeding deer and ducks today and drinking too much with friends from New Zealand on Saturday night). I know that its not the end of the world. I'll clean the rest of the house one evening this week after work, it shouldn't take me more than an hour or so...and I'll pick up my running schedule on Wednesday.
I like second chances...I've recently got a chance to get to know my bestfriend from high school. We drifted apart once I moved to Victoria but with the great technology of the internet we have reconnected and she's been a life saver for me the past couple of months. Smiley and I are going out to see her and her husband in Boston the end of this month. Only for a weekend mind you as I don't have much leave left. I'm so excited to see her again and I'm determined to make sure we don't lose touch again.
We all get second chances...lets make sure we don't miss out on them!

I found your blog via Eve's blog. And saw that she is the "only one" that reads your blog. Well not anymore!
Your runs look like they are going great! I do a 5k run every year just to see how I am doing... lol, this year I am going to skip it. I have taken to weight lifting now... light weights and I love it.
I loved the pic of the little one in the mud... too cute.
Well enjoy your day.
From One Canuck to another.
Thanks Andie!
Good to know that my blogging efforts are in vain!
