Wednesday, 14-02-24

My goodness, half way through February (pretty much) already - can you believe it?  Morning, everyone, Welcome to Wednesday and, I have just remembered, Valentine's Day, not that it bothers me nowadays!  😊

It's a dull, dismal start to the day, carrying on from yesterday when I set out for Groove having hung out some early morning washing and had to bring it back in when I got home because it was raining.  Not to worry, it dried inside and it did get a bit of a blow in the fresh air which is nice for tea towels and cloth wipes.  All ironed now and I will be taking it all off the airer and putting it away in a few minutes' time.
Groove was good although I didn't feel as much energy as usual and my shoulders/upper arms were aching after Monday.  They still are - not the 'ooops, I've done some damage' ache, just a 'maybe I pushed it a bit too far' ache.  I'll know better if the new thing is used next week and be a bit more careful but it shows I was exercising good and proper!  And ibuprofen works wonders, if really necessary!

After we got back, Chris and I parted company, I went in, straight out to get the washing in and hung up inside and then had breakfast.

The rest of the day was just the usual stuff - bit of housework, bit of meal prep, bit of tidying and so on and so forth.  I didn't go out again but maybe I will pop over to one of our many garden centres today - and, yes, it really is just for looking although the chances are I will come back with some bedding plants as well.  

As it is Wednesday, it is personal training later on so I'll be getting out for that anyway which will be nice.

Are you doing anything special today - a nice meal, a cosy evening with a loved one . . . ?  Have a lovely day, whether you are or aren't and stay warm and dry . . .  xx

  5. A very dismal day here - I'm making a little more effort than usual with our main meal, but as we'll probably eat it in front of the telly I'm wondering why 😉😄
    I'm making a Mary Berry chocolate roulade, but that's because I enjoy baking and it's something to do on a rainy Wednesday. It's simple enough to make until it comes to the rolling up of course and then anything can happen!

  6. That's great that you can dry your laundry inside the house. I have been hanging mine out in the sunshine in California. Today will be the sheets and towels. Happy Valentine's Day!

  8. Glad you were able to get the washing dry. It started snowing here today. There won't be a lot of it, but it is sticking a bit to the ground. I'm hoping it will be gone from the roads by Saturday so I can go out.
