Pre-sunrise

I was glad I looked out of teh window at 7.20 when I woke as this unusual coloured sky was what I saw. It then faded and I thought that was it but nearly an hour later it was as in the extra. A great start to the day.
Didn't see the sun again until after mid-day when I was glad it returned as I had to wait outside to be rescued.
I'd gone for a run in the woods and had to be home in time for Mr Rat to have the car as he was taking a funeral. I got back to the car park in plenty of time but the car wouldn't open - the remote battery had suddenly gone flat. I borrowed a phone from a man-in-a-van to phone Mr Rat and he hurried up (and it is up all the way) on his bike. Fortunately, shortly after I'd phoned a friend arrived in a car and he kindly went down to meet Mr Rat, retrieve the spare key and come back, thus allowing Mr Rat to return to finish getting ready.
I arrived home just as he was ready and he got to the funeral at just the right time - though had had to abandon his lunch.
Spent the afternoon making cards and had another short run with the ladies this evening.
(I have a niggling muscle strain so am not building up the miles again yet, but one of our group treats sports' injuries so I've booked an appointment with her for next week)
