Motivation!

Well, task one for the OU is now complete. I am taking a break (possibly a lunch break) before going onto task two. Only took about 30 minutes to do task one, apart from the weeks of thinking about it :).

Weekend was good. Shopping in Harborne (bought a new ball for Eddie - a proper leather-ish football which may survive more than one walk) followed by a long walk in a new place near Rubery - Wasely Hills. A nice 3 mile hike, up and down hills, with lots of places for doggy to run free and chase balls. Then we came home and Sarah did gardening while I bravely lay in bed and was ill for about 3 hours. I woke up just in time for all the work to have been done, feeling a lot better.

The evening was spent with carbonara, wine and Daniel Day Lewis as Sarah had one of her 'I must watch Last of the Mohicans again NOW!!!!' moments. Enjoyable film and a nice bottle of wine.

Sunday we went for another walk, this time in cannon hill park, and followed it up with dinner at the Red Lion where we met a madwelshwizard. Shopping was achieved after this. Then we waited in for the kitchen designer to turn up. He was late but Eddie thought he was great. Three hours later we had a new kitchen design all worked out and possibility of installation before the end of August (certainly delivery of all the bits and pieces before we go on holiday).

All in all a relaxing and productive weekend...
