thinking and house

laid in bed thinking. i took today off from the house, other than
taking all tiles and grout out of my car. decided to leave the car
outside parents and carry the tiles the few doors to my house. didn't
seam too bad at first but by the time i had finished my arms felt
twice as long.

otherwise i just watched the newcastle match and some of the chelsea match.

i made a list tonight of the jobs to do in each room. most of the big
messy jobs are done. we are going to concentrate on the bathroom and
kitchen this week and finish them off. not sure how long the tiling
will take, with nigel doing it.

i want to be in at the end of the month no matter what. cant afford to
keep paying board at parents as well as my own bills. that is money i
could be spending on the house.

a friend from work text me yesterday to say they had been rushed into
hospital with his appendix and he had done something stupid and
checked out against doctors advice. think he was told to stop drinking
or was gonna kill himself. hope that is a wake up call but we will
see..

when you hear stuff like that it always makes me look at my own life
and helps me make decisions. you never know what is around the corner
so enjoy yourself while you can and do the things you have always
wanted to.

talking of things i want to do, i still haven't got off my arse and
been running yet. i need to, i am running my first race at the end of
May. thats about 9 weeks, shit that's not long. i have set 2 alarms
for 6:30 so i can get up and go running.
