Having a Pet in Your Life

For the past 6.5 weeks I've been doing the Insanity workout. It's hard. Really hard. The warm-up is basically a regular workout. 

But this is not what I'm about to discuss.

It's this:

This is Riley (Bugface). He's the favourite I shouldn't have because he likes cuddle time. Sometimes he's really persistent on cuddle time when it's not convenient. Like when I'm busting a gut doing 'globe twists'.

'You should totally take up yoga, mum.'

'See? It's so much easier. You just stretch like this.'

Then when I'm trying to maintain my plank and do push-ups (never realised my arm strength was so poor!), this occurs:

'I'll just sleep here until you're ready to give me some love. It's okay, I'll love you even though I have to wait.'

Then I was attempting 'Level 2 Drills'.

'Here! I help you stay up- then cuddle time?'

Naturally when I finished 5 minutes after this, ready to give him cuddle time, he'd left the building.
