Thankfully Ray no longer looks like an alien with his infected eye!! He could have been an extra in a boxing movie. Thursday I walked to work and then to the gym in the evening. Friday is usually my favourite day of the week, but not today! I almost did not drive to work becuase it was such a beautiful morning and felt like spring. I fluffed around, so I took the car and parked outside my office. About 20mins after getting to work I looked out the window to see a huge big dent in my drivers side door! Some thoughful person had reversed into the car and left a massive dent!! No note!!! Now I might be naive to expect this kind of decency but I thought that if you hit someones car and obviously smashed half the front side in then you would leave a note....thats what insurance is for people!!!! Thankfully Ray and I are not possession people and took the view of it is only a car and will be fixed and thankully no one was in the car...but am dissapointed that someone was so thoughtless and dishonest. What comes around goes around!
I went to the gym in the evening and did a boxing class (no body imapct!!!) and got out all my frustrations! Then when we were at Rays mums for dinner they offered us to have a lovely wooded tallbay for the baby room....see already improving!
Saturday morning was filled with sanding and puttying walls and then I met some loely friends at the bay and we walked two laps (14km). I felt great and we were keeping a pretty good pace....haha each time we hit a slight incline (they are there, despite appearing flat) they would just glide a head as I felt like I was walking backwards! Amazing the difference having a person on baord makes.
The growth spurt continues and I am excited and loving the growing bump. One week off 6 months so I am glad it is finally getting bigger. This last week I have been waking at about 2am and just lying there not able to get back to sleep. I mean I feel totaly wored and ready to get up....then at about 5:30 I am really tired and ready for sleep. Hmmmm is this mother nature preparing me for things to come???
Today my lovely sister picked me up and did some fancy driving to get us a park about a 10min walk from the finish at city to surf. We had a really yummy breakfast at North Bondi and then lay like lizzards in the sun. It was much more relaxing than lining up for hours at the start line thatsd for sure. It was fun watching the winners and cheering all the crazies home. There were a few Borats this year....one of which really should have had an x-rating! Now sorry for the visuals but that will be particularly nasty chafing!! Ray ran likw a champ and crossed the line in 65 mins. Talk about spot on!!! We had worked out a guestimate from his lane cove 10km time and I had said about 64-65mins....so he was pretty spot on. He looked really relaxed as he ran dow the finish chute! I then went home for a 2hr nap....hard work this cheering :-0

Thanks for the cheers yesterday. Sorry I didn't get to see you. Bernie filled me on on your news (ie the pop!).
65 minutes is excellent for Ray. A mate told me a story about that particular Borat... before the start (he was a preferred runner), someone in the crowd said "bend over", then when he did, the whole crowd said "no, stand up! stand up!"
