Let's see how the next fortnight goes... <BR/>I've had a lazy day, a muffin, a cider, a bath and fish and chips for dinner (Hamish's idea). I've finished reading a Neil Gaiman book, Coraline, and now I'm going to ease myself off the sofa and head off to bed to read another. <BR/><BR/>I've been thinking that we'd all like our lives to be perfect, and that we'd like to not have to be embarrassed by our defeats, but then how interesting would we be? I will measure myself not by the games I lost, but by the way I learned from that loss and used it to win on another day.<BR/><BR/>Aaaah. Defeat and general weariness seem to make me wax too philosophical! At least I'm not grumpy though...<BR/><BR/>Off to bed!Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11205242741145067573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29642030.post-1867402078427948062007-09-16T20:35:00.000+12:002007-09-16T20:35:00.000+12:00I'm so pleased that you found your determination i...I'm so pleased that you found your determination instead of wallowing this evening:) I also hope you got your muffins and cider:)<BR/><BR/>I feel like I've got reeeal bad jet lag!Sasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14346099639284343145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29642030.post-73085196697358062242007-09-16T19:01:00.001+12:002007-09-16T19:01:00.001+12:00PS- GO SCOTTISHPS- GO SCOTTISHKatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15650652034813454379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29642030.post-65347261444343473762007-09-16T19:01:00.000+12:002007-09-16T19:01:00.000+12:00I'm SO sorry today didn't go as planned. You DO h...I'm SO sorry today didn't go as planned. You DO have a sub-2 half in you, and I know you'll find it. I say go for Wairarapa- you didn't get the race you deserved today, and it may well turn up there. Hehe- this is the tHIRD time I've planned pelorus and not done it. I don't think I could even have made it round today, let alone in a respectable time. <BR/><BR/>A fun tri-season this summer might be just what you need? Then City of Wgtn in January? I tried to pace a friend to sub-2 there last year. I failed, but would be happy to try again!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15650652034813454379noreply@blogger.com
