I was wide awake with Tony this morning and we had a cuppa together before he set off for work at 06.20. I'm washed and dressed too as I had gotten into the habit of sitting around in my PJ's watching You Tube videos for far too big a part of my day. Yesterday I went for a walk with my friend and we are going to be walking every day unless it's icy underfoot. We've gotten out of the routine through the winter and that's my fault entirely. I just couldn't drag myself out of the house at some ungodly hour when it's been semi dark, freezing cold and icy underfoot. We are going to be walking at 09.00 until the mornings start to get lighter. That way we can both have a sleep in and don't have to drag ourselves out of bed. I'll be more inclined to keep to that routine now that it's a bit more sensible. Today I plan to make a start on the spare bedroom/craft room. I have far too much stuff (have I said that before) and it may as well go to someone that will use it.It'll mean that I can actually get into the room and do some crafting instead of picking my way around so much utter junk. I won't share a before photo as I'm ashamed to say that it's a blimmin disgrace in there but I might pop back and share an 'after' photo if I get on really well.
YouTube can be very addictive, can't it?
ReplyDeleteYour plans sound great - good luck with them.

It's keeping me out of mischief Joy :-)
DeleteWalking fabulous...go for it :-) I so understand about first thing in the morning walks. I find my resolve weakens if I try to do it first thing in the morning. So I do it an hour before lunch approx having left the lunch all prepared for us. As for far too much stuff that thought has been on my mind for some time. I need to pass on,chuck out and even sell if possible years of accumulation of "stuff"! My grand-daughter is sorting the selling second-hand bit on facebook marketplace and other online places and all proceeds will go to the sophisticated laptop she needs for her college studies. I so like the sense of purpose your posts inspire :-) keep well Amanda x
ReplyDeleteBless you Amanda. Thank you. I've just sorted tons of stuff to donate to a local craft group. They can pick over it and see what is useful to them.
DeleteWhen I clear out my craft room I tend to just move stuff from here to there and finally end up not throwing anything away, lol

I have been absolutely ruthless this morning. I'm sending loads off to a local craft group as soon as they open up.
DeleteWe need to get back into walking but of late the weather is just not conducive for a stroll out. Hope you manage to get the room cleared out.
ReplyDeleteWe are way behind with our walking routine & it's mostly down to weather & our timing. It seems that this summer isn't playing by the rules & is either hot & humid or windy, cool & wet. Neither being conducive to walking & on the nicer days, we seem to get out in the garden. I'd actually love to see your mess, as I bet it couldn't be worse than mine which I showed on a post not long ago....Take care, stay safe & hugs.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling. I need to clean my closet, too. Walking is so healing. I have been doing more Pilates at home, which also helps. There's something about the breathing, and keeping the abs strong.
