    My legs feel surprisingly fine today after my long run yesterday.
    It was so stuffy and hot yesterday, I was glad when it started raining on mile 6

    Sent you a text re GNR - you got it?
    Good wine needs to breathe, if it stops breathing try mouth to mouth.

    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.

    Social worker's just been, she's closing my referral. I don't think she knew about the complaint.... need to read through the assessment now.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Yep I have...just still not sure what. I have thought about primary teaching but that would mean going back to uni and a lot of expense. Also need to spend more time in school to make sure its something that I would REALLY want to do to warrant it. Then there was my hair brain idea about the arts/craft stuff...you see I am destined to be a wonderer! I would love to find a career that I would LOVE to do..sigh. The only thing I ever REALLY wanted to do was medicine and Im not brainy enough for that, or I wasn't at the time!
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...
