Secret Swimming Surprise

I managed to walk to work today - even though I had a shitty, night before the first day back at work sleep, and was quite zombie like when I got up this morning. I managed to leave at 740am and get to work by 815am though - which I thought was a reasonable effort.

I also managed to bring decent food to eat for breakfast, lunch and snacks. I cannot face breakfast when I get up first thing - wish I could. And, most amazingly of all, I drank a 1.5litre bottle of water - which was really heavy to carry to work (as I was using an Olga Berg tote bag, not a backpack). Granted it was flavoured with diet raspberry raro type of stuff as I am still hopeless at weaning myself on to flavourless water. But it was water nonetheless.

I didn't have an especially productive day at work, but I don't care (I will probably care in a few days if I don't pull my finger out though).

After work A, who had the day off, came and collected me as we were going to take Flynn for a walk up the Maitai. Very thoughtfully, he had brought togs, towels and even a cold can of diet coke (thinking I may have been deprived at work). So we went to the secret swimming hole - this time the sun was on it and it was quite warm. Flynnie had a great time paddling around after his ball. Then we came home and A had already prepared dinner (pork schnitzel, coleslaw, peas and potatoes grown in our garden). It was delicious.

Now I am just relaxing and watching the tennis - although Survivor is on soon.

No photos of today's events, so here is one of Flynn with what remains of a toy on his mouth.
