Itchy feet...

This is only my second blog post for May. No blogging means no walking. No walking means I'm not a happy bunny!

Actually May has flown by with a flurry of activity, just not a lot of the walking kind.

There's been a hen weekend in Highland Perthshire, and a trip to Chester, never mind a lot of work, a sprinkling of worry, and not a lot of time to myself!


Dave and I did manage a wee walk that we'd been planning since we moved to the Borders. Well not really planning, as it was very straightforward, but thinking about.

There's a wee road that connects Stow and Lauder that we drive frequently. It's five miles between the two, so we thought we'd walk to Lauder and walk back.

 
 

It had looked like a nice enough day, but once we got onto higher ground we were very exposed and the heavens opened! We got completely soaked, and didn't spend long in Lauder. By the time we got back home we had mostly dried off, and had earned our dinner!


I'm really hoping that tomorrow will bring a walk - so watch this space!

Next week will definitely bring a walk - the Moon Walk! I'm walking with four other ladies including my mum, and our team has a combined age of over 260! I'm looking forward to a fun evening and a challenging and rewarding walk. Our sponsorship page is here: http://wtwalk.org/moonwalkscotland2014/liz-margaret-jean-irene-helen-s-moonwalk-scotland-2014

So here we are, on the cusp of June. I have an unsettled feeling that time is just rushing by, so it's time to stop and take a moment. To get a hold of life again and to get out there and...WALK!
