Accomplishment! (And some other narration)

First thing - accomplishment - this morning I finally managed to do all the push-ups in Billy Blank's Boot Camp II! There're 108 0f them in total not done one after the other but in two blocks of about 50 with cardio etc in between. Ever since I started doing the boot camp I've wanted to get to this point. There's been slow progress. I managed to get to the point where only the last 5 were done on my knees; remained there for a fortnight and thought I would never crack the barrier. So it felt great this morning to finish every last one! (Admittedly sloppy on form for the last 8. A new goal!).
Other narration: well yesterday I discovered the Hellenic Bookshop which is around forty minutes walking and on the train from where I am. It also has the best collection of second-hand Latin and Ancient Greek texts I've ever seen! It was so exciting to see them all there. With great strength I managed to walk out without having spent a penny. Definitely will be going back there with a fat wallet and indulging myself at some point. In particular there's a book on advanced Greek prose composition that I have my eye on (4GBP).
Of course I should have taken my camera with me for more photos. That's another goal for me. Remember to take camera!
And finally, my dinner last night, which somehow mixed disaster and success. I made Nigella's macaroni cheese, but without a grater, forgetting salt and pepper, and adding too much milk so that instead of cooking in 15 mins I ate it after 30mins despite it needing more cooking. Surprisingly it still tasted really good! And I left the remains in the oven - not on - and they look better cooked for my dinner tonight. Which will be earlier than usual as I have to check out a place in Battersea at 8pm.
