    Thanks for the warning, I'm keeping an eye out on the clouds.
    There are still patches of blue sky and the washing is nearly dry.
    Think I might be pushing it hanging out a second load.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    It's gone very cold and grey here now and the town has emptied.

    Afternoon - I've been a bit bad - I went shopping. :o

    I only bought some underwear, some hold ups and a handbag, but still, it was money I shouldn't have spent really.

    I tried on a few pairs of size 12 jeans, and they fasten!! :j But I decided not to buy any just yet, even though I'm having serious trouble keeping my current jeans up. Had a bit of an embarrassing incident running to the shop last night, when they did actually slip over my bum and I had to retrieve them from around my thighs! :rotfl: Thank goodness I had a jacket on! :o

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAMMY!!! :T :T :T


    Edit - omg that's a lie, I bought a dress as well :eek:

    Yeah, show us (or at least tell us) about the dress! I like dresses (I have bought too many of them in the last few months though :o)

    I'm starting to have fally-down trouser problems since I started running again, although I haven't lost any weight.
