Thank goodness it's Friday.

TGIF.

I say it every Friday, as the weeks rush past, especially during the first three months of the year. 

But today I say it with feeling after a hard and fast first term, a hard and fast week.

We survived Ironman.  

After being terrified by an 8.5K prospect (I thought it was going to 5K, then realised it was 8.2K when I registered, which then magically turned into 8.5K at the start...), I managed to finish in 64 min.  Great time for this unfit hooker!  My husband finished his race in a respectable 13h 53 min, after a gruelling afternoon on the bike leg. 

Done & dusted, roll on 2015!

So after rushing back, wading through loads of sweaty laundry, catching  up on a missed day's school work, getting report cards hamburgers depositing kids in front of their Wii - I'm taking the rest of the day off.  

I had a loooong breakfast with a friend - 

I'm (still) working on a turtle oven mitt for my aunt - 

I'm reading about love, murder and the TRC - 

I had a haircut - 

I'm wondering what I'll write about for Blog Week

I'm contemplating beanies for forthcoming Baby Berry -

A few colours and patterns fighting for the waning attention span!

I might just collapse with a chocolate and do nothing.

Roll on hunting season - I want to sit by the fire and have time to crochet.
