...get set....GO!

First, thank you to everyone who looked at or commented on yesterday's 365 blip. My ass has never been so frequently or publicly recorded, and I'm grateful for you all being so gentle. The lycra shorts have been eased back into their well earned retirement and my rear end, while grateful for your kind words, is taking a break from the spotlight for a while. Phew.

This is an unintentional, but convenient, follow up to yesterday. The school has had the playing fields painted in preparation for the one sporting event allowed in the year - the sports' day. (It's a strictly relay based affair so that no child is allowed to feel they have lost, or won. Grrr - I'll save the meat of that rant for "sports" day itself.) Conor, once told what the lines meant, was off like a rabbit, doggie firmly clamped in hand.

Today was another gloriously sunny day so we spent most of the afternoon in a sun worshipping torpor in the front yard. I managed to struggle through a little weeding and sorted out the compost bin - which kept blowing away where it was before. Also managed to spend a lot of time on blip the last 2 days, catching up on journals I'd been missing out on for a while and finding some new gems.

We inhabit a pretty wonderful place.
