The Thrill of Victory and the Agony of De-feet

So, I've made it to my holiday time, which has actually gone from 9 days to 11 days off in a row, no complaints from me :) well, my only complaint has been that my feet are hurting again, to the point where they let me go home an hour early last night. I was hoping that I just have to get used to my new shoes, which should be comfy enough, but then I've figured out that the problem is with the way I'm standing, putting my weight on the balls of my feet instead of my heels, which is apparently wrong. But I think I've always done that, as anytime I've ever had sore feet it's always been the balls of my feet and not my heels. So I don't really know how to correct that problem, but I don't see being able to carry on with the level of pain that I'm having.

Anyways, for now I can put my feet up and enjoy the next week and a half. The weather doesn't seem like it's going to give us many reasons to spend a lot of time outside, but for better or worse, we're off to Scarborough on Sunday for four days. Today I've got some time to myself while Adam works till mid-afternoon. Right now I'm trying to decide if I feel like popping to the shops for a wander around. Guess we'll see what I feel like doing after I have a little brunch and coffee. Can't make decisions without coffee, LOL ;) and especially if it keeps raining, I might just feel more like staying in with my Kindle. I'm halfway through A Dance with Dragons, and I don't know what I'll do with my obsession once I finish, and have who knows how long of a wait till we see Book 6. Guess I'll try to get into another story in the meantime.
