After a two week break from going over to Cambridge for a walk, I'm finally going over there this morning. It's for a Social Walk, not an Urban Challenge walk.
But, any walk is a good one right?
I've missed seeing my FBG friends.
All I have to do before I leave is make sure the house is 'Inspection Ready', in case the agent wants to bring someone through while I'm out.
I literally have to do that every morning when I get out of bed. Whip around and get everything ship shape. Tis a pain in the arse.
But necessary. *sigh* AND not forgetting, this is a choice we made.
I didn't show you the runner I finished yesterday, cos I wanted to think about what to say about it.
Here it is:
And I absolutely HATE IT.
SEE why they need to have the black accents?
I feel like throwing the green one in the damn bin, I hate it that much.
But, I will take it to market, and see what happens.
IF it is still in my stash in 4 months I will be giving it away.
And just for the record, I still LOVE the bright, colourful one the most.
It makes me happy.
ONWARD...
12.47 pm, and I'm finally home from walking/shopping.
First up, thank YOU KJ for saving the Green Runner from the bin! lol
Next, today's walk. It was a 30/30 Social Walk, which meant you walk for 30 minutes in one direction, then turn around and walk back to your starting point.
So, if you are a fast walker or a slow walker, you are catered for.
I was feeling like walking slow-ish today, but in the end I did my fastest walk in a very long time!
ABOVE: my walk stats. First time I've done under 10 minutes a km in ages.
ABOVE: These three girls set out FAST, and to my amazement, I almost kept up with them. But I walked on my own most of the way.
Morning tea afterwards, and I just had my Diet Coke, and no Pink Iced Bun. It wasn't even hard forgoing the bun!
Once back in Hamilton, I stopped in at Spotlight and bought more of my basic black fabric. Gosh I go through HEAPS of it!
ABOVE: I also bought a couple of metres of the pretties, for strip runners.
THEN I went to the supermarket and spent several hundred dollars on 1/2 a small trolley full of food.
Now I'm home, all is put away and I'm exhausted! That walk was ... FAST. And a long one too.
Time to get some lunch and put me feet up for a while.
