Hello everyone. Well it was gloss paint today. And I have another room to gloss this evening. The next job will be stripping paper in the bathroom. I did have a speedy walk through town this afternoon too. It is so very cold today which made my walking speedier than usual! Lol :) one day soon i will be back to my swimming.

Hi guys! I did a 1.7 mile walk, mostly uphill this morning. OK it was forced on me 'cos I needed to walk home from the garage after dropping my car and my family are all away until Monday, but I did it at an average speed of 2.5 miles an hour. I'm encouraged to try harder now that I have actually achieved something. :)

It's Burns Night tomorrow (not that I understand any of the poems ) so we decided to spend this afternoon doing Burns tourist things.
We went to Souter Johnnies Cottage and had lunch close by.
We went to Alloway , Brig a doon and Burns Cottage . Been to them all a few times , it meant I walked around for a total of over an hour ? Took some nice photos too.

Looks lovely.

Well done @zand

Today I've done 4 mins sit ups, peddled for 38 minutes so far and spent over an hr scrubbing and rearranging the pantry. Need to do some more peddling as I've stopped my metformin for a few days to see if the muscle pains and burning feeling I keep getting goes.

@cold ethyl, you inspired me into doing more than run. I managed 20 crunches and 10 full sit-ups (though I was mostly floundering like a beached whale):D Hey we've all got to start somewhere right?!

Walked around our local park for 100 minutes this morning. Good to be active and get fresh air, feeling much better for it
