Gratitude #13

Today I'm grateful for a sleep in. I'm grateful for a phone call from Hamish's mother. I'm grateful for Jo coming to pick me up, and our two and a half hour long walk from the Brooklyn wind turbine along the Sanctuary fenceline, then back along a gravel road and a narrow bush singletrack to the turbine again. Afterwards we sat in the sun in a peaceful bushy courtyard out the back of the cafe in Brooklyn. I had a big, cold orange juice and a salad with crunchy, salty duck.

Afterwards Jo and I tracked our trainer, Dave, found the Taupo Ironman, as he finished the bike and started on the run. I spent the rest of the afternoon tracking him, as he finally finished in a little over ten and a half hours.

Today I am also grateful that Hamish is on his way home.

Today has been a good day.

I had your situation in mind as Jo as saying it. Didn't want to write that in the blog though.

I figured. I wasn't sure I should assume that in a comment though! I don't mind. I really believe that now - make the most of what you have because you might not have it tomorrow!
