Here I am again after another long, incessant night. I don’t think I slept much at all.

It was a good weekend though, Saturday was the Pirates Week Sea Swim. I finished second place in my age group, (out of 2!)

There was an Olympic swimmer there, swimming. I must point out that I started after him, and finished before him! Way before him!! Of course he was swimming 5k, and I was swimming 1k. So he was doing five laps and I was just doing one.. but I’ll omit the second half of that story!

It was a cloudy day, but a good swim.

Saturday afternoon, it was so cloudy, dark and lugubrious from inside the house it looked like it was night time. I had to keep the lights on indoors just to see.

Sunday I went to a very challenging 90 minute yoga class, and then I did yard work for most of the afternoon. I trimmed my nasty sticker bush hedges. I wish I had taken a before and after shot of the bushes after I trimmed them. I trimmed the holy hell out of them. I bled less than normal during the trimming process. I also cleared away the area outside my yard fence that I try to keep clear of weeds and bushes.

my lawnmower is still in the shop and I should be getting it back today. Hope I can finish mowing the yard without breaking it again! Lol!

it should be pretty nice weather, now that the work week is here. I hope you have a wonderful day!
