This morning I've decided: I'm running the Toronto Half-Marathon. What with my new-found knowledge of myself, I'm attempting to set some short term goals for myself and Octoberr 15th is a short-term goal. So, one day before my 28th birthday, I will be running 23km. I'm excited. I'll try to remember to post a before picture too so that I can actually witness the health changes, and maybe, if there is someone reading my blog, you can too!!
Today is also the day I go to the bookstore to finally purchase 'War and Peace'. It's a book that I have wanted to read for most of my life and after reading a very good article in "The Walrus" I'm determined to make a go of it. The five hour sailing trip tomorrow should allow me a good start.
Here's a picture of Gilligan, the bull next door that will be moving out. He came to the farm last year and was a test tube baby - he's half Guernsey and half Holstein (we think). He's possibly the smartest and most beautiful cow I've ever had the pleasure of being around. He stares at our house from across the field and "mooooos" because he's lonely. He's the only cow on a one horse horse farm. We aren't certain but we think he may think Blue, the horse, is his mother.
All the best Gillie and may your life be long and lackadaisical!
