23,000 steps before 3pm.





I've ended up at almost 30,000 steps today and am feeling pretty tired now. Juno and I were out at 6.20 as the sun was beginning to show and walked a couple of miles in the chilly morning air. Alison was off to work for the first time in three years which was quite something and that meant I was off to see Joy and to do mow her lawns. 

I listened to a variety of podcasts as I ran down to Verwood, and with the return home, I ran 5.5 miles. I actually managed to go more quickly on the way back which was uphill and shows how I need to do a couple of miles before feeling warmed up. Anyway, the lawns are looking good and I just have to get on with the hedges down there next.

Once home I had a bit of a rest and a chat with the postman before taking Juno to the woods and having lunch. It was then time to get on the bike for a 6 mile ride to Verwood and back to grab some shopping and to pop into the library for a couple of books. 

Having rested for a few minutes I got on with making the tea, a vegetable curry and aubergine side which was lovely and then back to it with a trip to the allotment before collecting Maia from dance. The squashes are great and the tomatoes are amazing, as you will see in the photo. I got some greens and some runner beans too and enjoyed being the only person there as the sun went down.

Beach walk

 We all seem to be ill. Maria's dance showcase on Saturday evening was great but since then it has been downhill. Alison has been in bed...
