Big hugs to you Jamrox. We all have not so good days or weeks - what matters is that we don't beat ourselves up about them, but just start over as soon as possible. This is for life until someone invents the bionic pancreas so we owe it to ourselves to keep plodding onwards.

Not been so great exercise wise here last few days. Nothing on Thursday as busy with batch cooking and then only managed 25 minutes yesterday as went out for drive and walk but heavens opened so walk didn't happen.

Sorry I have not posted for a couple of days but I have had a terribly swollen and painful knee on same leg as my new hip. The doctor seems to think as my walking is strained it has set off my knee and I will eventually need a new knee as well !! She has prescribed tramadol for a week to see how it goes but at the moment no difference so am really fed up at moment. Going to have a quiet weekend with my feet up to see if it helps x

so i managed 35 mins on bike yesterday- will claim the other five minutes in cat duties. I don't normally sit downstairs in kitchen when Mr E in, but as he was out, I did( we are very anti-social at times in this house- he is always doing important stuff at night on computer!) - cats were in and out constantly - no sooner had I sat back down than one of them was at kitchen window staring to be back in. In end I went t bed out of way.
Today we were out so only managed a 20 minute walk.

Up at the office today for three days, so that means ... THE STAIRS (duh duh duhhhhhh).

Last time I got to the 8th floor before resting (out of 11) - will see if I can do the whole lot now :wideyed:

washed bathroom floor and paintwork( both by hand as who can be bothered trying to get mop round toilet bowl), then whizzed round Aldi at a brisk pace. Going for a peddle when dinner settles.

I'd be resting at 1 so you are doing miles better than me. I hate stairs as they set my panic attacks off- sort of Pavlovian response.

Did 15 minutes on bike after dinner so got my 40 minutes in, one way or other.

Cleaned window in junior's bedroom ( small panel sash so too ages to get into every corner ) and washed down paintwork. Then 30 minutes walking.
