I built my first bicycle. It is the most beautiful bike I have ever seen. I have only been up and down the road so far but plan to head off for a commute ten miles into town soon. It is a "fixie"- fixed wheel and fixed gear- in a 1920's style and colour.
Ran my first long run (17km) for weeks a few days a ago. Took three days to recover.
Claire and I off for two weeks over Ruby's first anniversary. It was extremely difficult for us both in the first week. We cried every day. Claire was very angry, I was very irritable. We met some of the family at Ruby's bench in Crawfordsburn Country Park, had lunch at the cafe and they left. Claire and I walked by the sea.
It was only a few days ago but is already a bit of a blur.
We put some of Ruby's ashes in the stream near her bench. I tried to imagine that every day is an anniversary of a day she was alive and happy and those days should be appreciated for that reason. It has mostly worked on the more difficult recent days.
We have started to look at touring caravans having talked about wanting one for years.
