Remember ha thread where we stated what Xmas jobs we intend to do that day, and then came on later and said whether we had done them or not? Well.

That's not all folks! Had to race home including one steep and sweaty hill as I received a text to pick up DGC from school. Then did Tesco shop. Feeling fed up after cooking tea and DS decided to go to the gym first so went for another walk round the village in the dark, almost 2 more miles.

Decorations still need putting in loft and shed, and living room is a sight to behold!! Tomorrow's job plus major hoovering. Then pick up DGD from nursery and the chaos of the weekend starts. Hey Ho! Can't wait till Monday.

Did my walk today (yesterday) nearly 4 miles. Took lots of photos as it was a beautiful day for a change.
1. My favourite local walk.
2. Daddy swan with youngsters. He has brought them up after Mummy was killed by a dog earlier in the year (last year).
3. The river is still flowing fast!

Spent all day taking down decorations AND packed them away AND cleaned........shattered.

I might have to just walk, slowly, to the Co-op, which is only ten minutes away! Can't believe how much Xmas has turned this house upside down! Having my glasses on isn't helping. #needscleaning

Up and down stairs a lot, packing. And sorted fridge, including walking to local recycling (that doesn't count as the cycling I have sworn off) with random stuff. Used much energy swearing as I tried to wash hair and dry it one handed. I now look like a bush.
But thank you Jings anyway.

Yes. Taking decs down definitely counts. And swearing at the wet (dirty?) marks on the carpet where we took the Xmas tree out, might have burned a few calories.

I am going to walk to local shops too Crow. A mile each way, same as yours!

Just found this thread. I started my fitness regime on Monday as planned with a free Zumba class (never done it before) but also walked there and back - one mile each way.

Fully intended to walk today but spent the day taking down and putting away decorations. Does up and down ladders and stairs count? Oh yes I also walked round (and round several times) the local garden centre to choose half price decorations for next year.

Tomorrow (today) I will walk!!

Walked to the village and back in pouring rain!! Just over a mile. I do wish drivers would slow down when they drive past pedestrians and the roads are wet and drains are overflowing. I always do. ?
I am so fed up with constant rain that I decided to walk and get wet. It felt great. So shall do that again tomorrow, slowly building up to longer walks and ignore the complaining from the knees!! Thank you Jings

Mine are down but not put away. I'm not doing anymore today. Bound to have missed some anyway. Will finish in the morning.

Hard work, Xmas.

Decorations down but not put away. Lots of toing and froing as the plumber was servicing the ch boiler and the cold burns lots of calories doesn't it she said hopefully. About to do my last lot of exercises. Watched videos of the incipient floods outside a friend's house and I was mentally swimming very hard across the Wansbeck. Eggzorsted now.

that went well

I've. Just got to go and eat some more cold Xmas pud before I continue with is decs down thing. got low blood sugar.

Oh my gosh! Yes. Stairs definitely count.

I've just done 1 1/2 days moving my ds into new three story house so lots of stairs!! Please tell me that counts jings cos I'm totally knackered now!
?? ?

Hope you can still enjoy your trip icyalittle.

Only exercise I'm doing today is upping and downing chairs to take decs down. And exhaustion is setting in.

Oh no!

#notmyfault

You know when I said on Saturday I was going to do 20 minutes on the rowing machine? Because I fell off my bike last Monday and couldn't cycle? Well, it turns out I had broken my arm a bit... Very dangerous, this exercising. I'm supposed to be going skiing on Friday too. Sigh.

Have to put off the wisteria as it is still raining and be dark in an hour so annoying.

Might go up and down the ladder to the loft instead and put all the decs away.

I'd have biked to work but I've got a tummy bug and all I can do is crawl to the loo.

On the other hand, I haven't eaten much.....

Crikey! All that?! You put me to shame!

Yes whitewave. That will do nicely.

I did 15 mins on the bike, then 20mins dancing and floor exercises. Was planning a walk on the beach later but it's wild, windy and raining here . I'll dance more instead ! I've done my ironing enthusiastically as well .

Well it is pouring here so nothing outdoors for me although DH will be taking the dog. If it stops I will cut back the wisteria to two buds so does a bit of stretching count?

Can't anyone else say what exercise they intend to do today?! Even if it's just hoovering the living room?! Or taking the dog round the block?!

Can't we get some action slight movement going here?

If no one else participates in this thread, it could become my personal diary. Like a blog really.

You have been warned. It will be boring.
