Good afternoon Bloggets. I have just got in from our gym… I went
on the treadmill today for nineteen minutes. Pathetic I know but after
yesterday fifteen minutes of total agony, today nineteen minutes without any
pain at all. It may have been helped by the fact I put comfrey oil on today on
my knees. It’s a wonder oil for me. Also, I think yesterday was the first time
in ages I have been on the treadmill. Hence the pains.
I just get so board on there even with music. If I were the
kind of person who liked to listen to audio it would be different. My friends
who are blind and go on the treadmill, listen to a talking book and Hub puts
his sport on. I listen to upbeat music and my mindset isn’t at all enjoying
physical exercise right now. but, I’m still in there even though it’s really
cold in our gym…Garage.
Outside is snowing
rather heavily and our poor dogs didn’t get out today because of that. It’s
really slippy under feet.
I’m proud of my tiny achievement, just day two such a lifetime
a head but a day at a time is a less daunting process of thought.
Hub is in the gym for about an hour and then he goes in
again at nights. When he works during the week, he just does the hour after
work. And though we have a downstairs toilet, he goes to the upstairs one to
get more exercise. … now, that is dedication.
Poor Boy Wonder was up at half five this morning again for
work. He was on open today he is having a bit of a problem with his boss. He’s
not happy at work at the moment and I just hope life sorts itself out for him. He’s
a really hard worker and like his Dad a perfectionist. Hub likes things done
properly and our boy is the same and when he sees it’s not right, he speaks out…
sometimes that’s not good… if things don’t improve I can see BW looking for
another job. He has been there a year and a half. Time flies and BW isn’t
flying as high as he wants. He has no time for hanging around. He wants to make
it to the top and doesn’t want to wait until there is room for him up there. I
hope he lasts with that frame of mind as procrastination has been his middle
name for certain times in his life. but not in the workplace.
Hub made dinner for tonight. I was going to make something
that would do for dinner tonight and BW’s lunch for work tomorrow like Lasagne,
but Hub got up at silly time and prepared vegetables for a Sunday dinner. So,
that’s what we are having tonight…
Bless my Hubster, he has helped me a lot this weekend.
Yesterday I had to take down our curtains from our landing window for our
decorator coming. Oh, my. What a nightmare Bloggets. A screwdriver was
required. D.I.Y, is not our thing… I have never needed a blooming screwdriver
to take down a pair of curtains before. And I can’t even tell you how many bits
and bobs there were to remove before we could get the flipping things down.
Now we have a pole in two halves with two ends and screws to
try to reassemble at the end of the week.
The worst thing was Hub couldn’t reach the screws so had to
get ladders.
On the stairs.
So, a large frame of ladders on small steps. I was terrified.
I asked him to wait for our boy to come home from work as he is so tall he
could do it without even stretching. But oh no, independent Hub had to do it…
it was so dangerous. I ended up holding the steps as they really were not
steady as when he got on them they started to go sideways in the direction of
the bottom of the stairs.
I washed dried and ironed the curtains. Hub said we should
get them dried cleaned… what if they shrink? Hahaha. I said there was plenty of
spare if they do… and they were far from expensive.
We have removed all of my paintings of my angels my American
artist friend painted and my red glass clock as well as a mirror. Oh, and a
photograph of my Dad and myself that I treasure.
A slim chest of drawers was placed from our landing into one
of the bedrooms and two tall floor standing candlesticks as well as a children’s
wooden and cane chair from when my Son was a tiny child was also removed from
our stairs where they turn the corners there is some spare space, as my Husband
says, if I have spare space, it has to be filled… haha. Cheeky chops.
Now, let me tell you what was on the landing windowsill…. Oh,
heck… OK, firstly, it’s a large windowsill.
Honest.
Three… yes, three Chrystal vases the centre one has red silk
roses.
A Chrystal hedgehog. A glass apple with a red rose inside… a
glass ladybird it’s got red in it… Getting my red theme? Did I tell you my
curtains are red and the candles from the sticks are also red? I like red…
there are two Chrystal dishes with lots of marbles and precious gems. And there
is a shoe made from Chrystal and a glass bird.
Oh, and a
glass/Chrystal angel!
Oh, I almost forgot. A multicoloured Bohemian glass clown.
hehehehehehe
So, they all got put into our office safely. I washed every
part that was washable. Doors etc. let the week begin.
