What made you smile today?


Recommended Posts

Yesterday was rest day, so I had two hours after work that are usually reserved to training. I went to the local zoo: a 5-minutes walk from my workplace, and I always thought I had no time to do that!!

 

Finding out that training actually GIVES me more time than it consumes: that made me smile. Oh, and the The Lady Amherst's pheasant happily bathing in the dirt. Such an elegant bird acting exactly like a chicken.

Guy in the gym doing some variation of sit-ups was checking me out as I was doing push-ups, so that was a nice little confidence boost.

Also I got this tablet (a computer, not paracetamol) about a month ago, and I've noticed it already predictive texts the word 'gym' when I type the word 'the', so clearly I'm referring to 'the gym' a lot, made me chuckle.

Well, you can take the Lady Amherst out of the barnyard...

Nuuu I cannot, they're in a zoo. I'd like to keep a couple of them, though.

I've been trying to train the puppy not to try to jump OVER me to get into bed (because she's not as good at jumping as she thinks and she lands on me and she's fat and owww) for the entire times we've had her (more than a year now)

Since my knee injury a week ago she's jumped on me twice which had resulted in hours of tears

So she's gotten to where she'll come to my bed and give me that please mom look. ... and I'll tell her go to the bottom and wave my arm towards how I want her to come up. ...

Last two days she's been very good about not jumping ON me
