Hot, Hot, Hot!

Its been really warm for days now, so much so we took wednesday off and bummed about, visited a garden centre and generally lazed. It was great.

We have been out and running quite a few times now and I have progressed to 5 x jog for 1 1/2 mins, 5 x walk for 1 1/2 mins. I am rather chuffed it has to be said! 🙂

Our batch cooking went well, and we have really rather enjoyed amazing lasagne tonight, with fresh salad picked from the garden. Fab.

Summer Rain

Came home from work on Friday after only being in for 30 minutes after my breathing got crap, and just got worse, and I didnt have my inhaler with me. It was playing up all weekend, and was real bad on Sunday morning. Then the rains came. and came. and came.

Thunder has been going on and off pretty much all of the day! Oppressive heat, humidity and wheezing all go hand in hand.

I have got together a list of all the tasks I can think of and put it in Outlook, hopefully this will help get me a bit more focused to get things done.

Today we are starting a 100 day challenge-y thing. Today till the 9th Oct, getting in as much exercise, eating as much good food and as little bad food and just doing things right for 100 days. *Fingers crossed*

So, what will we do tonight Brain.

Same thing we do every night.
Try to take over the world.

Had a *great* weekend. We decided on a whim to take Friday off work on the Thursday morning, and was that the right idea….

On Thursday night we went for a run, and then got chinese and watched The Day After Tomorrow.

On Friday, we traipsed round B&Q and got a ton of wood, and then Ian made a big box for me so I could spread out my veggies into more space. We had settled down to do very little when Sean MSNed me asking if we were going out tonight ….. blank looks …. we had gotten mixed up as to when Peters night out for his birthday was. We would have turned up on Saturday when every else had been out on Friday. just as well Sean asked. So, we took Sean in, met Pete, Greig. Liz, Rachael, Paul and some other of Peters friends. Got gassed, had a sar beni and a late night.

Saturday involved a trip to North Berwick via Dobbies garden centre in Dalkeith (its huge) in North Berwick we walked on the beach, Kayleigh dived in the sea, we got greasy fried suppers, and then came home to watch loads of SG1.

Sunday was a day in the back garden mostly. Ian finished building a base for the box, and then I thinned out the spinach, lettuce, parsnips, leeks and beetroots. Potted out the strawberries I had in the house, and planted some peppers, carrots and red onions. The thined out plants look dead. Heres hoping they recover quickly. Was enjoyable though 🙂

I am now a little sunburned, knackered, and my back is acheing. Its a sign of work, and I am not used to that!

So, the aim of the next few days is study, Study, STUDY!
I have an exam on Thursday. Which I am so gonna fail, but I need to at least try and get close to the pass mark. Monday brings roleplaying, on Tuesday I should be going for a walk with Anna, Wednesday is the Brights meet up I think, Thursday is my VB/Windows exam, and Saturday we should be going out for dinner for my dads birthday. Need to get him something.
