That's brilliant, TeeBee!

luck for Carp

Am getting really fed up of OH waking me around 6. Didn't sleep last night until nearly midnight. It's just not enough sleep for me. He can happily go back to sleep but I will not.

Oh well. Another grumpy day eating sugar ahead

Morning all

Hope everything goes ok Carp. luck
TeeBee that is absolutely ace.
Hugs for you Linds.
AR I am the same, but fine if I can actually shove myself out the door.

I was ridiculously proud of myself for putting up a new light fitting last night. There appears to be some interesting wiring in the house by the looks of things.

Looks like a better day here today so am going to see if I can take some time back this afternoon.

I’m the same Linds. I’m just not getting enough sleep. Little one graced us with a 4am awakening. She is 1 today though so I’ll let her off.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
