Birthday number 4?

It came....it went...my waistline I'm talking about!!! Actually I didnt have any cake yesterday. Mainly due to the fact that the kids arent savvy with the oven and cooking, plus the fact that I'd done an hours running that morning and wasnt going to blow my day to bits with a stodgy slice of sugar, cream and hundreds of calories. I was waiting for a glass of champagne instead (yeah, ok that was my treat). AND IT WAS GOOD!! There, birthday over and done with until next year. THink I got off lightly this time. Im not one for making a fuss over anyhow. Tone was away working and so the kids and I went off to the beach for a few hours which was wonderful. My son came out of the water with the foamie surfboard in two pieces after being dumped by a huge wave just off the shoreline, much to the disgust of my girl...(it belonged to her!). We had a lazy, cruisy day together - a first for a while as there has been so much on. The fine weather continues today and so I decided a few of my clients (and moi) did some time at jacobs ladder ...a staircase in Kings Park that has 242 steps. I know my calves and thighs are going to kill me tomorrow. I did this especially for two girls who have this notion of being 'good' at tomorrows' Melbourne Cup luncheon they are going to. They usually see me again on Wednesdays and have cancelled already as last year they did a session with me and proceeded to hurl in my garden! Now you tell me...if you are going to be 'good' (meaning having one drink) how on earth are you NOT going to be ok to train the following day? As you can tell...not happy with that reasoning. Will they get to their goal before 18th December....what do you reckon?! So by tomorrow, around lunchtime I think, their legs are going to be so sore that they will only want to go home and have a radox bath. They will feel my presence.....How sinister am I. Cheers Trudxx
