Woke up in a huff. Not sure why.

Tipped over edge into full on stomping strop by the daily challenge that is - persuading two small girls to get dressed and leave the house.

I failed. I missed the start of my gym class and so went to vent at the Forth and then along a bit of the Brunstane Burn and through to Newhailles.

It was fecking freezing. After a while, I couldn't feel my legs and I would have sold one ... mebbee both... of my children in exchange for a coffee.

Thankfully it didn't come to that.
