Argh!! Had a long post and lost it. Not long ago - should remember most...
CLEDA
First of all CONGRATULATIONS!! I'm staggered on you whittling away all year to 70lb down.
That's so cool about the Pokemon raids & the rowing instructor.
LILI
Pilates IS dry - not interesting workouts at all, but I began to appreciate them much more when it was described as having a plate of marbles across your hips & not only stop them from falling out, but try to keep them still. Changed how I was doing things a LOT, but they're still not fun.
PAM
Initially reacted with "ugh" to seeing "houseguests" until saw it was DS, DIL, & dog.
That's totally different to the fishy kind (that need go after 3 days).
ME
On holidays for 2 weeks. DH just left for the farm - past of why that post was lost - walked away from computer.
Friday was the girls' birthday - evening spent on vid-call with them as Cait opened her parcel. She's been on solid lockdown & curfew for months. Just today, they can go 9km from home (rather than only 5) and curfew is lifted.
Saturday we went to Sydney to spend the day/evening with Bridget. Saw her new place. SO much nicer than the previous apartment. Lovely neighbourhood & it's a house with front/back yards. Had a long walk to look around.
Sunday was totally spent answering questions from senior students - studying for the big finals.
Monday (today) - start getting things done that I can't do at the farm:
1) weeding
2) work job that'd be hellish on a single 12" laptop rather than big twin screens
3) house-cleaning so it's nice to come back to (I'll go to farm next week)
4) JUMP LOTS!
Buddy has been dipping out a lot lately, but always with a fair reason.
I don't do alone what we'd planned together as she has limited choices, so I go to the computer (feeling disappointed) to find an alternative then get sucked into a combination of news, backing up discs to file, & work stuff.
So.. now that I have all day to do my own thing - I'll leave buddy-jumping as an extra.
Hitting send before I lose it again.
WAVES TO KAY!!
