I'm delaying work this morning.
Up at 5am ot the door for 5.35 run 6miles just under 48min and the whole family still asleep, bliss! Breakfast treat a couple of lightly boiled eggs. We have four from yesterday, so 2 for me I know that Cameron and Emily will be up any moment one each for them and Teresa (a creature of habit) will only want the homemade muesli. I want a breal from the museli because I also have it after training but also I got fed up paying NZ$3 for a litre of rice milk (I prefer rice milk to soy because it doesn't have sugar in it) so I'm experimenting with making my own and it is very much a work in progress. It seems okay in coffee but it has a hint of banana in it, because it has banana in it. Back to the drawing board.
I've just been doing my morning ritual after breakfast I go and find any eggs, check on fruit crops and the raspberries to see if they are being eaten again. Then it is on to a quick scan of blogs I read, checked on my own and this is what stopped me from my work and the real reason for this post.
I think somebody or something maybe, possibly reading my blog...other than me that is. This suspiscion has arisen because twice now after a post my counter figures have leapt up. Normally it goes up 1 a day and I know who that is , its me. The idea that somebody else may or may not be reading this is kind of creepy and very unexpected because if you are reading this you will know that is purely drivel and I encourage to not read it.
Just as a side note: we are getting a new woodburner installed on Thursday. The good people at Metro fires are replacing the whole thing because og the split in the top and the fire is about 4 years old. Now that is what I call customer service would I recommend this company, without a doubt.

Weekly training 29Sep-5Oct
Took time to watch the bees do their thing with the apple blossom.
5250m - still doing lots of fistgloves with legs together, band on legs no fistgloves and regular swimming with fistgloves. Because I go to a pool which is used by the public not swimmers per se I am faster than most of them wearing fistgloves and holding my legs together.

BIKE
38.28miles - this coming Sunday I'll be stopping my turbo session which I normally do after the farmers market to my on road ride because the farmers Market moves outside for summer and I like to get my ride (which will go from 20 up to 50miles by the end of December) out of the way. So I will be heading out about 7am.RUN
17miles - 3runs - 2x6 and 1x5 at my 'I am enjoying running again' pace.Join the movement and we'll start a revolution - stop all unnecessary shopping - seperate your needs from your wants.
Spring is exciting
All the fruit trees are starting to flower, seeds in trays are sprouting. We are doing tomatoes(yellow and red cherries,beefsteakand heritage all started from seeds collected last summer) lettuces, herbs (rocket and basil are favourites), we have started peppers(I usually remember these too late) and aubergines. Strawberries in hanging baskets are going well, raspberries are really going well even the black ones that have never fruited before. I realised I pruned them in their first year when I wasn't supposed to. The red ones were being eaten but spraying with gatlic spray and checking daily seemed to have sorted that out. We just hope that the wind doesn't blow off lots of young fruit like it did last year.

Chicken Cam
Featuring Ethel, Daisy and Choc Choc (Bertha is a bit of a loner sometimes). Daisy hadn't laid an egg for the last 3 days we were starting to get concerned especially as she seemed to have a limp. She is back in the groove today I will be observing her for any sign of limping.
We're actually trying to keep them off the deck because they poo on it.
Natural egg laying.
