Good Friday

So much for plans to sleep in! No such luck this morning. Stayed up last night to watch the Brisbane Lions get thrashed by St Kilda... very frustrating for a Lions supporter! I didnt even watch it all the way through - switched it off in disgust at the beginning of the final quarter (and it was after 11pm anyway, which is very late for me). Scott had already gone to bed sick, and he was coughing half the night too, poor thing.

Woke up at my usual time of 5am!! Grrrr. Dozed on and off till about 7, then got up and took the puppies for a MEGA walk. I took a different route today in order to get more hills in (its super hilly where I live) and Shavez (the boy) was so excited that he had to stop at every tree to have a sniff and a raise of his leg!! I've got a sore hand from pulling on the lead to make him hurry up! Then for Elke's turn she decided that it was a race up the hills, and my heart rate was up to 176bpm trying to keep up. Feels good to have gotten it out of the way though.

Had a lovely leisurely breakfast of an egg white omlette and wholemeal toast (a nice break from my oats and protein powder - but much more filling) and now I'm getting stuck into the housework. Everytime I read Em's blog I feel like I should be cleaning the house! So washing is half done, floors mopped, now its time for a break on the computer. You cant rush these things!!

Hope everyone is having a lovely day.
