Whatever You Want

Hi everyone,

This is going to be a very brief blog because I have very little to report on the exercise front. I am ashamed to say that I have not been to yoga, I have not been swimming, I have not been to the gym and I have not walked Harvey as often as I should.
There is no real reason for the drop off in activity except for the fact that I have been working more than usual and I have been really tired. That sounds really pathetic but I am afraid it's true. This 53 year old 'lady' is starting to feel her years it seems.

Apart from work, I have had the chance to catch up with old friends over the past week which is always lovely. After a long weekend of work, I made several visits to my father in law, met up with very good friends and their mums (after I forgot about my yoga session!) and had lunch with them all, went to see ex clients who have remained friends for many years and had coffee with them (spent soooo much time chatting!), been to a carol evening, been to Oxford and been to the O2 to see Status Quo who were supported rather brilliantly by 10.cc. No wonder I'm tired!

Today saw me attend a first aid course at the school where I work and then on to a local electrical retailer in search of elusive Christmas gifts. The gifts remain elusive!

I have given myself a stern talking to regarding my exercise. I know, absolutely, that I will get back in the routine easily. However, I do think that I won't be able to commit to it fully again now until after the festive season. I think that, if I was able to run, then I would know that I would have to keep up my training. I will give myself the luxury of a couple of weeks of self indulgence and pick up again in the New Year.

I think I will continue to do the weekly blog even if I have little to report...mainly because I enjoy writing it but also because it keeps me focused on my goal.

So, apologies for the lack of news once again and I hope you are not disappointed with my lack of effort over the past week. Stay safe and take care.
