Welcome to my blog!
I've decided to set this up to share a little bit about the walks that we do, what books I read and basically our life in general. I intend to keep adding different links and information along the way, so please come back from time to time and see what there is, and feel free to comment on anything.

Better late than never

I've missed the mid-week update yet again. Where does the time go?! I had all good intentions of settling down on Wednesday night to do an update, but by the time all the jobs had been done, and kittens happily put away for the night, it was time to sleep! 

This week has all been about waiting for a magazine to come out on Thursday. A running magazine. The one that DD will be in for the next 5 months. It's been very exciting and is finally here! 


And I have to say I'm really enjoying going out running with DD. We did another 5 mile interval training run today, and despite a few twinges in my legs I managed to keep up! 

The kittens are getting more confident every day now and will happily charge downstairs when given the opportunity. 


Poor Oscar appears to be a bit scared of them and moves away when they appear! The other cats are slowly getting used to them, but it's going to be a while before everyone's together. 

Yesterday we managed to get out walking. The weather forecast was ok so I suggested we head out a bit further north than usual and come off the motorway at Penrith. 

So we did. And the weather wasn't quite as good as we'd expected. So we didn't get the summit climbed that we'd aimed for. After negotiating some boggy parts of  a rapidly disappearing path, and noticing that the summit had disappeared in the clouds, we turned round and took a different path! 




It was still very pretty, but I'd got the wrong socks on for wearing my boots, so they didn't fit properly, which caused no end of discomfort for me! So, after painfully making our way along another very wet path, we stopped for lunch and then headed back. 




8 1/2 miles later I could finally take my boots off!! 

And today, while DD and DH went off to work, I headed to another craft fair. 


It was quite busy today and a good atmosphere overall. 

And then home to run with DD. 

So that's been my week - working, running, crafting, walking .........

Let's see what this week brings.
