Personal Best


Today is one of those "taking it up a notch" days. I walked 6.8kms around the lake. Ive been wanting to do it for the past 2 years but was too scared that my knees would get 1/2 way round and then give out. My friend Ebbs has been here for 4 short days and I asked her to take me on this walk before she left to go back to Moama. This woman has in the past,taken me to some very unusual places... like tobogganing down the side of a snowy mountain in a tractor tube.. ... up a huge mountain by foot to see the most awesome views of Halls Gap in Victoria. Both those times I was utterly exhausted, thinking I cant make it and both those times my spirit soared smoothly for days afterwards on the high of sucsess. Today is no different. I'm so sleepy, so happy and so hopeful. I feel like a floppy puppy all contented. I love Miss Ebberle... we address each other as Miss Ebberle and Miss Scott always. When we went into a shop yesterday talking to each other like this, the lady behind the counter asked me if I was Miss Ebberles school teacher. It was a total crack up.
