Back out

I woke this morning & scrapped my plans to go for a run as the heavens had opened & it was bucketing down. Oh well, another day when I can't try out my recovered knee ....but this afternoon the sun came out & it was fabulous. You know those pesky voices that persuade you that it's too late, too warm, oh you've dropped 2 glass bottles on the floor so you may as welll forget today? Yep I had all them and they nearly won. Nearly, because this evening OH tried on his wedding suit so I thought I would try on mine ....oh the air was full of expletives - it has shrunk!! Merely by hanging on the wardrobe door - surely it can't be me that has grown a big bum & mahoosive belly? Yes dear readers, I had to face the truth- The weeks on the IC have expanded my rear end, boobs & belly. Only one thing for it - on went my kit & out I went and how fabulous it felt. Oh running, how I have missed you. I run past the cows chewing the cud, saw the trees and bushes slip by, leapt over slugs, snails & worms who had been enticed out by the rain earlier. A rather good 3k run passed all too quickly and my reward was a fabulous sunset as I ran home. The devastation I felt earlier just melted away with my run, I have 10 days to sort myself out & there is always the option to buy a new dress. Sorted!
