  • Spoke to DH about the BM thingy last night and he shot it down-cold.
    His *flimsy* excuse is that it is close to us going away to Florida?!?! I don't know what to say really...

    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.
  • Yeah, can't see the logic behind his argument and normally he is behind me doing any form of physical activity 100%-I am thinking its the cost he is concerned about ie entry fee, petrol to drive up etc? Will delve deeper into his little ginger man-mind...

  • Morning all,

    **offers round some custard creams**

    The weather is rather random -keep getting sleet showers, followed by snow more sleet and then brilliant sunshine! I don't want any more snow.

    I'm a tad ratty today, as my 'wiggles/hitting myself in my sleep is back! So any black eyes or bruises on me nose are caused by me and not my OH - he'd need bloody long arms to hit me whilst he's in Afgan!
