I know the feeling! The rain has just washed all our snow away so I must scrape my motivation together to get out there for the first time since before Christmas - I too am feeling a bit bleh and definitely eating for comfort. Things do not bode well 🤭😳
Aww it’s the time of year isn’t it? and i’m 65 on Monday, oh no!! I’ve just remembered, I am about to get 3 months of toy boy jokes until Willow catches me up in years again (sighs) happens every year lol We are going for a gentle run tomorrow that will perk us up, enjoy your run when you do it
Garmin plan sounds good, whatever it takes! Lots of us seem to be a bit bleh. I’m still getting out there 3 times a week. I have to, it’s all I have now that we’re locked down again. Roll on the spring!
You can have my job if you like 😄 it’s intense with loads of stress and every day i get to work and swab my mouth and nose which is pretty gross then i get to swab others which is even worse 😂 😂
I sure will, birthday, running, cooking and looking longingly at jeans i used to wear, it’s leggings for running and leggings under scrubs and now leggings for my exciting click and collect shopping 😂
I’ve turned up for work in running gear, put scrubs over the top, taken them off at end of shift and gone for a run, home from run put the lot in washing machine really for next day, if ever we return to some sort of normality it’ll be getting to work and not changing and testing that will please me, I’m sick of changing clothes, if i leave work to go to the bank or somewhere have to change again, this week off i may even just put clothes on and leave them on until i go back to work
Nooo, don't mention the jeans! I have four identical pairs of jeans. None of which I can do up. Well I can, but only if I don't breathe. They accuse me every time I open the wardrobe door. So leggings it is! Enjoy your pamper session, what a lovely idea. 😘
I have 30 year old jeans in fact some of them may be nearer 40 now lol and up until I gave up smoking I could squeeze into most of them, now I can’t even do up the pair i never wore because they were too big 😂 ah well, that’s part of what this week is all about
Our plan for this week is to go out when we get up in the morning, either to run or walk, so far we haven’t got up 😂 but the sun is shining so we might
Thanks, we try and miss the worst of the rain, I had my vaccine last week and been fighting a headache ever since, maybe that will fade now and tomorrow’s run will be great 😊
Thanks Dexy, we are going on a pamper retreat (at home of course) I told my daughter and she said what a great idea she would do that for her birthday and tell the kids to bring her chocolate then faff off 😂 she has a graft great sense of humour
Enjoy the time off. De-bleh yourself slowly. Enjoy your birthday and start counting down the days (till you’re 66 if you’re like me) when we can look forward to Bermudan holidays on our state pensions! Running on the sand at daybreak...
Your time off will be brilliant - trust me - it was just what I needed to break a period of sloth (running-wise that is). Hope you have a well deserved rest, pampering and gentle runs.
Sending you both a big hug WillowandSola! 🤗 I know the feeling well. Have a fantastic 8 days off, enjoying doing only what you want to do and everything that pleases you! ❤️
Life has been pretty bleh recently...never mind. ❤️
I’m lucky that I got my NHS pension at 65...I really feel for everyone working through this second wave.
So well done for getting some focus and having a plan...is it just running? (I don’t have a Garmin)
Enjoy your 8 days off...I think that pampering sounds like a fab idea to do for yourself. Be kind to yourself. Happy anniversary on your not smoking too!
Thanks Lottie, yea the Garmin plan is just running, I doubt we will stick with it it’s a bit short the runs for me we shall see, I want to do Zombies run but I’d have to carry my phone and I bought a Garmin so i didn’t have to carry my phone last year when ai dropped and smashed the phone, so many decisions, I might try Zombies run this weeek and see how it goes
I wear my 3/4 capri shorts...they have pockets. On a wet day, when I’m wearing proper leggings, I use a money pouch for my phone...picked up cheap in Lidl a while ago.
I carried my phone in my hand and dropped it last year when wearing gloves which was the decision maker in buying the garmin but it means i don’t take so many photos
Happy birthday 🥳🎊🎉 sounds like your 8 days leave, has come at the right time, and well done on your 1 year, no smoking, i'm now 16 months, so far, so good! Enjoy your runs/walks, this week. 😊
Thank you, oh it did come at the right time, we’ve had so few breaks this year, we keep putting leave off in case we have to isolate and we have all been exhausted so it’s great just not getting out early for work
