    Well I cut the grass smashed, even raked up all the dandelion heads and for once didn't scalp any frogs.

    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.

    bless her, she is a real sweetie. I am pleased about the frogs. Dont look good scalped. I am sure my grass has grown 6" since i left earlier. No lawn mower so i have an excuse not to do mine. And really do not think i have the energy anyway x x x

    OK all the talk of nice cool drinks outside meant I had to drag a chair out into my poor excuse for a back garden, had a nice hour or so out there with a book and a glass of wine. Back in for tea and to watch Doctor Who... sleeeepy.... :)
