29. reality check. in nojomo 2013

WHERE: y'all should know the answer to that! This week's lass grenade is a green avobath. A lovely, skin moisturizing, citrus smelling ballistic which never stains the bath.

WEARING: the only addition to the usual is a blue, gingham hair band. It belongs to one of the girls and is a school uniform one but it was the first one I found.

FITNESS UPDATE: I'm still swimming most mornings and have even got to know some of the other regulars. Of course, this is one of the reasons I like my running, it suits the part of me that likes to be solitary. Yesterday morning the pool temperature was ridiculously warm! It was like getting into a warm bath! That doesn't help when you want to swim a lot. And the swimming? I'm remembering the proper techniques! It's a long time since I swam sans kids, but it's all coming back and so my swimming speed is getting faster :)

IN THE NEWS: 50+ dead in China after a pipeline exploded. Too many dead all around the world because of humanities obsession with possession.

READING: I have just downloaded a book onto my kindle for free which promises to be rather twee. It's a romance set in the Amish community at Christmas time. I'm looking forward to that :-)

ACTIVITIES TODAY: toy library, lunch out, chillax in the afternoon and possibly pizza hut this eve with the kids - or making our own pizzas at home... Rich just got paid so feeling a tad flush!

THINKING ABOUT: I desperately want a week off while the girls are at school and Rich is at work, I would crank up the music and tidy this mother of a house! I would end each day before school pickup with a trip to the tip/charity shop. I would get rid of all the stuff!

PLANNING: heaving my carcass out of the bath. I can't necessarily mention other things...
