1st February

 I had 7 hours sleep last night, that’s really good for me. Yesterday I went shopping first thing and then I vacuumed and dusted, made sandwiches for lunch and in the afternoon I changed my bed which I find really hard. I cooked dinner which was quiche with mushrooms, broccoli and broad beans. 

Today I had a ride on the turbo trainer while I was listening to the Archers omnibus. I did 20.9 miles in an hour and a quarter. When I finished I made sandwiches for lunch. For dinner tonight we are having Wagau burgers, chips, corn on the cob, mushrooms and garlic bread. Blueberry’s for dessert. It not a usual thing for a Sunday dinner but I am sure we will enjoy it. 

   

Monday

 I haven’t had time to blog it the past week. I usually write my blog in bed but I have just been going to sleep instead. But I have had a lovely weekend, I went out on my bike on Saturday with our youngest son, who was here for the weekend. Yesterday we went for a walk. He won the card game on Saturday and I won yesterday so we had a quick game of dominoes to decide the overall winner for the weekend and iit was me! Normally I don’t win. On our walk we saw 5 swans 7 deer and a heron. On our ride we saw 8 buzzards 2 deer hairs and squirrels. 

Tuesday

 I went for a walk this afternoon after lunch. As I was walking across the field I met a woman who was coming back from the shop. She said “ are you now going to Tesco’s ?” I sail no I am just going for a walk round the pond. She said “ well I was going to tell you the shop is closed because someone decided to take the money machine and there is a big hole in the wall.” I carried on with my walk. For dinner tonight we are having liver and onions with mushrooms and a jacket potato. 

Sunday

 Last night I had a better sleep. I got up at 7 o’clock and had my breakfast, egg on toast. At 11 o’clock I went upstairs for a turbo. I did an hour and rode 18.7 miles which was even faster than last week. I made myself a small coffee before I rode. For lunch we had the same as yesterday which was a packed of crisps, a fruit scone with jam and butter and a banana milkshake. Yesterday for dinner we had meat balls and pasta with a tomato sauce and today we had cottage pie with sprouts,carrots, mushrooms and tomatoes. 

Friday

 I got up a bit later today. After I had my breakfast I put yesterday’s washing in the dryer,and then made a beef stew for dinner tonight in my slow cooker. We have just eaten it and it was delicious with the dumplings I added in the last 40 minutes of cooking. T.this afternoon I went for a walk , Marriotts Way is very muddy. 

Wednesday

 Today was the day I meet my sister in law in the City, so i got up early and had my breakfast. I caught the 9.30 bus and went first to my bank to put a check in. When I got there it was closed temporarily but it didn’t say for how long. It gave you the nearest branches one being bank plain. I walked to bank plain but couldn’t find any bank. We went back to the bank and there was a new notice on the door saying we could use the Halifax which is nearly next door. We had our lunch at Harriet’s which was nice. When i got my bus home I don’t know if I got the wrong bus or they have changed the route but it took me the wrong way when I realised I pressed the bell and got off. Then I had a long walk home. I have done 12,185 steps today (4.26 miles) . For dinner tonight we had haddock with mushrooms, peas and chips.

Monday

 As soon as I got up I put on a load of washing. I had my breakfast and emptied the dishwasher. I vacuumed upstairs and cleaned the toilet, washing the floor etc. When I had done my chores I got ready and went for a walk. I walked 1.44 miles. When I got back H was on the turbo. After he had done i got lunch, we had cheese and biscuits with a banana milkshake, i also had a half an avocado. Daughter came round on her way home from work to pick up a parcel, she wouldn’t stop because she had to walk her dog. For dinner tonight we had salmon with a jacket potato and baked beans. Dessert was delicious, ice cream with fruit out of the rum toft.
