I know, I know - It's been ages since I updated my blog but I get in this weird place where I'm a bit tired of my life and the daily grind and can't begin to imagine why anyone else would want to read about it.

My brother is 40 - old bugger. We had a lovely party at mum and dads as it was dad's 65th as well. Good old fashioned BBQ with drinking and merriment. I took it fairly easy as I knew that I had to get up for the kids in the morning. Others did not and my favourite quote of the weekend was definitely "I went to sleep and then I did a big sick in my bed!"

We had a week with mum and dad in Norfolk after the BBQ which was a lovely precious family time.

We have finally decided to borrow the money to put an extension on our house. We only have one small room downstairs other than the kitchen and with both boys very mobile and Dom being huge it feels a bit cramped around here. Dom and his dad are busy scheming about possibilities but we can really only afford to put an average sized room on the side so plans like cellars and pool rooms might have to be for another, richer day.

Just before we went to Norfolk I pulled my knee while running so I have given it two weeks rest. Went to the gym for the first time back today - it was bloddy hard work. How can 2 weeks make such a difference???

I will try to post next week - but not promising anything.

Well a small update is better than no update :)
I haven't blogged much either,too busy trying to enjoy the so called summer.
Hope the knee is better,I have been 4 weeks with no running and my shoulder is still hurting like hell,back to the doc I go tomorrow.......why couldn't I be injured in the winter when I have absolutely no desire to go outside and could get out of snow shovelling !!!

Take care :)
