Wednesday.

 I put a load of washing on as soon as I got up, all our towels and bath mat. It was a good dry and I was able to put them all back. It was a lovely sunny day for a chance so l put my shorts on and sat in the sun ☀️ when I was too hot I did some weeding, I don’t know where they all come from, they keep growing even though we’ve had hardly any rain. H had beans on toast for lunch and I had cheese and a tomato. He came out and sat in the garden with me this afternoon so we are both a bit pink. For dinner tonight we had pork chops with broccoli, leeks and potatoes.

Sunday

 I had a good sleep  for a change. We had our breakfast and I did a load of washing.  We had some more rain so I didn’t hang the washing out. At 11 o’clock I got ready to turbo. I was going very well and was going to ride for an hour and a quarter, but I was riding with my head down not looking at the screen and when I looked up my avatar had stopped even though I was still peddling.so I gave up. For lunch we had cheese and biscuits and a peach. I did a little gardening this afternoon and for dinner tonight we had meat balls and spaghetti with a tomato sauce.

Saturday

I went for a walk this morning when the drizzle stopped. I only walked a mile it was to post a letter. I didn’t have to water again. I was going to have a ride on the turbo trainer, but now I am going to do it tomorrow while I am listening to the Archers. For lunch I had cheese but H had peanut butter on toast. This afternoon we watched an old film it was about queen Elizabeth the first. While we were watching it the door bell 🔔 rang. It was our daughter in law who was on her way home from her allotment and had called to give us some broad beans and a huge broccoli. So for dinner we had salmon with jacket potatoes, broccoli and broad beans. It was really nice.

 I didn’t have such a good sleep last night. Today our daughter came round to ride on the turbo trainer again. She’s set her father a target. I expect he will be up there tomorrow trying to beat it. I did some housework because it kept raining 🌧 so I couldn’t do the garden. This afternoon I went for a walk, I went to the village pond and sat watching the ducks in the sunshine when it started to cloud over so I started to walk back. I was going to go the long way round but it turned darker so I went back the way I came. I just got in the door and it started raining. I had made the right decision. For dinner tonight we had a steak pie with potatoes, cabbage, leeks and broccoli.

Thursday 5th

 I had 7 and a quarter hours sleep last night,I think this is a record! Now I can’t stop yawning,I feel so tired 💤. I went to Tesco’s this morning and did my shopping 🛒 when I got home I made us a coffee and we had an apple turnover with it. I did not water the garden because it started to rain but we haven’t had enough I expect I will have to water tomorrow. I thought I would have a ride on the turbo as it is cooler but my knee was so painful I only did half an hour. I will try again on Saturday. For lunch we had a cuppa soup an egg 🥚 a pickled onion a gherkin a lump of cheese and 4 small tomatoes 🍅 also some blueberries and a Jaffer cake. For dinner tonight we are having pizza and salad.

But before all that I went for a bike ride with my granddaughter and her boyfriend. We only had a short ride because it was her first ride for about a year so she has got to get fit. For lunch we had sausages and for dinner tonight we had lamb shanks with potatoes carrots cabbage and asparagus.

Friday

 Today I got up at 5.50 and made a pot of tea. We had our breakfast and then I got ready to ride on the turbo trainer. I did an hour,I found it really hard today, I thought H must have put my weight in wrong , but he checked it when I finished and it was ok.so it was just me. Our daughter came round after she finished work to have a ride. H was impressed by how good she is. Then our son came round and our son in law turned up on his bike so we have had a busy day. I watered my strawberries, rhubarb and tomatoes, and filled the bird bath. I made a pot of tea and got dinner. We had soup and then a salad.
