Up bright and early today. Well, Diesel was. I chose the snooze button instead much to D’s grumpy hungry tummy. That cat is an alarm clock like no other.
When I did finally get out to run, it was late morning. Not my favourite time to run when it’s hot, but sometime I have to. The sun was high, the pace was slow, but that’s okay. I secretly like slow runs every now and then. I don’t like looking at the pace, but my legs like it! Halfway I stopped off at the end of the pier to soak up the cool breeze and watch the jellyfish. I replaced my lost sunglasses last week with polarised ones and I’m enjoying being able to peek whats under the sea!
8km* and a breeze on the way back. Bliss.
Part of the shady breezy route sometimes has a post apocalyptic feel. Rail tracks, disused power station and graffiti. Add a dust cloud from the new construction of a power station and it feels like I’m running through a Mad Max frontier town. Yep, too much imagination. 
Sunday, AJ started smacking his gums, making clicking noises. First I thought something was stuck and after investigation, he’d broken his already bad tooth. This boy has a history with gingivitis, throw in a broken tooth and infection can set it. Mr AJ isn’t allowed to get ill or old. Neither is D. I switched their food from crunch to tins until their vet appointment (who remember us, even after 3 years! So did the pet taxi!) today. Diesel probably wants his brother to have bad teeth more often as he couldn’t get enough of the wet food. His demands for it and food in general is insane. He joined his brother at the vets and both are now on feel good, satiety crunch. Serves him right for throwing up his and his brothers breakfast this morning.
Does your pet wake you up every morning for breakfast?
* Still haven’t got in my head, less photos running, equals a quicker pace.
