Good morning my tooting friends. Not a very pleasant night - I woke at 4.30am went round opening the doors & windows, turned off the aircon but left the fans going. Then went back to bed & dozed for an hour or so. It was a bit over 25c when I finally got up for the day & is going to be another hot one at 37c #Weather.
It’s a weird sky outside with a little breeze. I thought I smelt smoke earlier & the light around the hills was hazy, but now the sky is grey & there is definitely rain around. We may get a little, we probably won’t - so I’ve given the garden a good watering, picked 2 cucumbers , 1 large & 3 small tomatoes
. I keep forgetting about the Thai basil
I have tucked in between the tomato plants. #Garden
I’ve also woken with a bit of a sore back, so a quieter day for me & staying home, but I will be doing either a balance class or just a simple stretch class to work on & help my back #Exercise #KeepMoving
Have a lovely #Tuesday people, hope it’s a good one for you - stay cool .
Today didn’t quite go as planned. Went to pick up 2 granddaughters & the younger one had gone to stay with her other grandparents, so I only had Miss 12, soon to be Miss 13. While we sat up there near the chalet having our picnic Miss 12 said how much she wanted to climb The Horn again. We’d last done it together back in Jan 2021 along with the oldest granddaughter. I wasn’t sure how I’d go, but I was game to try. It was my goal to get back up there last summer after I’d recovered from my fractured spine, then of course I did the damage to my leg. It’s a 1km steep climb up & I did it . It was hard & I had to take breaks but I got up there & I’m rapt. This 72yr old is doing ok, all the hard work has been worth it. #Exercise #Health #Recovered #KeepMoving #NeverGiveUp #SoHappy #LoveMyLife
I’m home & I’m super pooped but I feel good. I’m now chasing that 2km mark. I think it may be a little way to go before I get there though considering how I’m feeling right now . Another personal best today though - 1700m, I even did some yoga stretches in the water
whoop whoop

This is why I love #Yoga #Pilates #StrengthTraining #Walking or just #StretchExercises - it not only makes you feel great with the #Endorphin hit but so good & important to maintain flexibility in our older bodies. #Exercise #Aging #StayingStrong #KeepMoving

some days seem harder
such as today but keep on
all things change, just wait
I am super tired tonight. I said in my morning post that I’d be taking a walk but didn’t expect it to be quite like it was. I decided to check out more of the new track the council have opened up. It’s not exactly signposted & got turned around a few times as tracks seemed to go off in unexpected directions. Finally I decided it would be smarter to turn around & just go back the way I came, which I did. Instead of a 5-6km walk I ended up doing 11.75km of which the last km was done very slowly as my knees were complaining. Still I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it, appreciate it more now that I’ve rested & will do it again. I found an awesome grassy spot that had a beach & old jetty posts across the creek. Legs & feet feel ok now, but knees are still a little stiff but I am proud of myself . #Exercise #KeepMoving #WinterWalk #StillHealing
