ST PATRICKS WALK

Last night our Fat Bottomed Girls walking group had it's first walk of the year.
I was so tired already, it would have been so easy to just not go...but I couldn't miss the very first walk could I?

ABOVE:  As it was St Patrick's Day, most of us tried to wear some green.  
One walk down, probably 80+ to go!  There's about 40 walks in the Urban Challenge, but as I am in a sub-group that does all the mapping, we end up doing at least every walk twice, if not three times.  

This morning I'm going on a walk with two of the sub-group girls, to make sure the next section's map and instructions are correct, and to find/identify any hazards on the walk, before we post it as an 'official' walk. 

There is SO MUCH WORK involved!  But I love it, and really enjoy being a part of the organisational side of the walks too.

After the walk I will be coming home and dying!  Well OK, not dying, but certainly having a rest!  It's been go, go, go for the past few days and I'm bloody tired.

Once rested, I will do some housework then perhaps start some Wonky House Runners.
I only have one left!
The cute one I made on Saturday night was THE FIRST THING I sold yesterday!
It was very popular.  *smiles*

It is so.... flattering when something you have made is admired so much.  My Tree Table Runners are very popular too... and I absolutely LOVE making them.

ONWARD...


Well I surprised myself and actually did the walk!  I was close to not going as I was so tired.

And it was raining too... which actually helped me decide to go!  I love walking in the rain.

ABOVE:  A bit wet, but the hot chocolate afterwards was very nice I must say.

Now I'm home and getting some washing done.  And resting me feet!
I totally need new sneakers, which will be on the 'to get' list for tomorrow's trip into Hamilton.
Not sure yet if I will spend the big bucks and get New Balance sneakers again, or just some Skechers?  My last New Balance sneakers 'failed' and had to be repaired only a couple of weeks after me buying them. 

Well I've not 'rested' today at all.  I've been sewing another Wonky House Runner.
It's looking good too.

I hope to get it finished sometime tomorrow.  I had to take a break to cook dinner.  Grrrrr.

I'm looking forward to a quiet, relaxing evening.  Fingers crossed.  *smiles*

Quiet?  Yes.  Relaxing?  Not really.  I sewed.
For hours.

Got a bit done, will show ya tomorrow.

Time now to head off to bed, my head is pounding... so tired.  Gawd I'm always tired.
