A scorcher of a day today. Too hot to do much. I had a doctors appt this morning, that an ordeal in its self!! But I did it, and avoided most of the crowds. Just a couple of walks today, far too hot to go too far! Off to see my dad tomorrow😊 it’s beenContinue reading “Friday’s Post”

Today the weather behaved and i got out and managed three walks, it’s all about keeping positive. Going back to the weights and yoga (unless it rains, then it’s a YouTube workout) I also gave the house a good going over, I washed the curtain separating my dining room from the kitchen. Tomorrow if theContinue reading “Thursday’s Post”

Before the virus descended upon us, I use to spend time in town and then spent the rest of the afternoon at my friends, we’d have lunch, sometimes watch a film, or just chat. I now get to spend time with her going on a walk. It’s not the same, but considering I hadn’t seenContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post”

Weather was a lot better today. Managed my walks, and I must admit i feel better for going out. You get stuck into a routine, and then before you know it, a week have passed and you’ve not done nothing! Got some housework done, made a few quiches and froze one for a future meal.Continue reading “Tuesday’s Post”

Well not so much getting up and getting out. Rained for most of the day, but I did managed a walk before dinner, so I got to stretch my legs and gave some fresh air. As for the rest of the day, I didn’t do much. Read a book, listened to music and catch upContinue reading “Monday’s Post”

Managed a couple of walks today. Not sure if I’ll get a chance to do another. We started off the day with rain, had a quick glimpse of the sun, then back to a few showers. Went food shopping, I didn’t get out of the car (but as it’s all about pushing myself, at leastContinue reading “Sunday’s Post”

As you know I not only do a daily post, I write reviews and puts them on here. Thinking about this earlier got me wanting to share my thought process on reading, reviewing and my love of books in general, so…… I must admit I’m a start at the beginning type of woman. I hateContinue reading “Saturday’s Post”

Caught up with one friend last night, don’t know where my friend from America got to! Hopefully I’ll catch up over the weekend. Had a few walks as well, including a social distanced walk with a friend. We managed to walk a little further and did a little extra to out walk. Pretty pleased withContinue reading “Friday’s Post”

Lovely weather today. Had another great walk with a friend. Housework kept me busy and a little reading. Sat in the garden and watched lots of butterflies visit the roses and wildflowers we have in the garden. 🦋

My first social distancing walk today. Made arrangements to catch up with my friend. We were out for about 20 minutes, but as it’s out first time walking with anyone near, neither of us wanted to push it. I must admit I was a little nervous. But it was nice catching up. The weather wasContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post”

A busy morning with washing, housework and a walk. Reviews that needed polishing up and placing on my blog calendar (otherwise they’d all go in on the same day!) A quick social distance chat with a friend at the door. Another afternoon walk and putting bedding back into the bed. My day rounds off withContinue reading “Tuesday’s Post”

Start the day off with a walk. then chat with my BFF and then a catch up with my sister. Breakfast and then a review. I’m on a deadline today, a last minute book for a review. I also managed to get in another two walks. The sun was out and it was really warmContinue reading “Monday’s Post”

First time out in a car today!! Didn’t go far. Took some crafting supplies to my granddaughter. I was lovely to see her in person, but I stayed in the car as she came out to get the bag. Complete weather change today. Started off with rain, cold and cloudy, ending up with a littleContinue reading “Sunday’s Post”

Caught up with work colleagues on a FB chat room last night. Getting the low down on what’s going on. Then general chat, it was fun catching up. Caught up with washing as the weather was lovely. Spent time in the garden weeding my daughters corner of the garden. A few nice walks today. ButContinue reading “Saturday’s Post”

Three walks a day, three different experiences. The morning one is usually the quietest. Don’t see many people, and those I see are usually in a better frame of mind (thoughtful of other people) I wear my mask whilst I’m out now. The afternoon walk has a few more obstacles. More mobility scooters are out,Continue reading “Friday’s post”

Walking to the park this evening, we must have encountered every mobile scooter, runner and mum with buggy, all going the opposite direction from us! Took bread to feed the ducks, a few seagulls decided to dive and take the bread from the ducks. 🦋

What a dark and miserable day. With the threat of rain all day, it made it hard to get out, but I did it. Also did my workout via YouTube. Caught up with the politicians and their shenanigans! Managed to finish off a few reviews (they were sent off) and made notes in the bookContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post”

Why, when you decide to do something with someone, it always ends in disaster?! So my friend and I had decided yesterday afternoon to start walking together in the morning, as I said yesterday, I need to up my fitness before going back to work. But by the evening we had to change our plans!Continue reading “Tuesday’s Post”

A new week, and a new start 😉 well that’s how it’s suppose to go, let’s see how the rest of the week goes! Walking more✔️ drinking more water ✔️ trying to eat less and healthier (almost) housework was done to music. A different yoga video (longer and a little more effort was required) gotContinue reading “Monday’s Post”

Lovely sunny day today. Sat in the garden and read. Until the screaming from over the fence drove me back indoors (kids and water!) Managed 3 pretty good walks today. Had a nice walk around the local park early evening, not many people were there then, it was lovely. Phone calls with family and friends.Continue reading “Sunday’s Post”

A sunny today. Managed to get three walks in, varying in time and distance. I even mowed the back lawn, well I did a little, it stated my coughing off, so hubby finished off and I weeded the flower beds after he was done! The nice about the sun, it creates a warm spot inContinue reading “Saturday’s Post”

Yeah, we had a little sun, but if you blinked then you would have missed it!! last night I caught up with my Book Buddy from America, and my best friend. We had a laugh on a Facebook chat room. And tonight I caught up with friends from work. We chatted about work, then caughtContinue reading “Friday’s Post”

I managed a walk today before the rain came, so for the rest of the day I did a little housework and caught up on reading and the never ending reviews. Next week is suppose to be better weather wise. Let’s hope so. 🦋

The first week of July!!! Time seems to flyby one minute, then drag the next! Bringing me closer back to work . Weather kept me from doing too much today, but I did mange a few short walks today. Our government is trying to get us all up and out, but offering vouchers for aContinue reading “Wednesday’s Post”

Managed housework in between a few walks today. Weather cooperated (but only just) catching up with family and friends online, it’s getting tedious, not talking to the people, but the situation we are in. Catching up with family and friends with a social picnic is ok, going to the pub with them is ok, butContinue reading “Tuesday’s Post”

As I’m running out of media space (I’m on a free page) I’ve decided to change it up a little. So less pictures, unless it’s a book cover. But I’m looking into possibly buying a larger blog space (it will give me more media space) but not until lockdown is finally over, money needs toContinue reading “Monday’s Post”

Managed to get some washing out on the line today. Stayed surprisingly dry. So it’s all done. What do you think ? I just need a frame, and where to put it. When I finally get it on the wall, I’ll put up pictures. Made the most of the nice weather today. Went for aContinue reading “Sunday’s Post”

Got very excited this morning, I see an amazon van, I think that’s my book being delivered early….. no!!! It’s for a neighbour, a little disappointed, hopefully it won’t be long☺️ As you can see, I’m almost done. Another miserable day at home. Yes we can now venture out at eat in a restaurant, catchContinue reading “Saturday’s Post”

Managed a few walks today. Pleased with the efforts, need to make more of an effort. Had family night, we had bingo, again the last one. The usual chaos, people called foul 😂 And I had a chat with a few work colleagues on a video chat. We talked about work and then had funContinue reading “Friday’s Post”

Can’t believe I’m almost done…… Really pleased with how it’s come out so far. I’ll definitely have to hang it up. Family quiz was moved from yesterday to today. And it’s been decided that tonight will be the last one. It’s been a lot of fun, lots of healthy debates and a few controversial decisions.Continue reading “Thursday’s Post”
