All about the arms

Indeed gave us all a budget of €450 to help us get set up with a desk and chair at home. I have set up my home office in the 'gym' room. Whenever I need a break or am looking for a reason to procrastinate I have been hopping on the bench press beside my desk...my arms are VERY tired as a result!

Need to focus on something else to let them recover so I have decided that today will be ab day!

It's starting to feel like groundhog day.

Get up.
Shower & get dressed.
Work.
Go for a walk or run.
Cook dinner.
Watch tv.
Go to bed.
Repeat.

Some days I am full of energy. I go for a morning walk on the pier & try out some new meals for lunch and dinner. I do some decluttering and maybe a virtual yoga class.
More often recently I have felt like I'm running out of steam...I'm sick of walking the pier, sick of having to empty the dishwasher 10 times a day, sick of everything 'virtual'. Leaving the house is an effort at times.

I have run out of fruit again so will need to go to the shop. The earliest online delivery I could get was for next Monday. Mia has a chest infection so I need to collect a prescription for her from Boots today anyway - I may as well pop to Tesco while I'm out.
I always feel nervous going to Tesco these days - if I am going to get infected anywhere it will be there. Need to get in and out as quickly as possible and make sure I don't touch my face until I get home and give them a good wash!

Lisa posted up some sunflower seeds from Cork which I will plant today.
Also need to order some big planters & buy some plants - with all this time at home it's the perfect time to get stuck into some gardening!

I made a 'Thursday Challenge' for Mia to do today - she's spending waaaay too much time on her laptop so I'm hoping this will help. She has to do 10,000 steps, bake some cookies, do 10 jumping jacks and clear out a press in her play room. Hopefully she gets on board with it!

I've had a few virtual catchups with friends and family. I'm probably seeing people more now than I did before the lockdown! When this is over I must make sure to keep this up...it's easy to get caught up in life & it's only when you are forced to slow down that you notice what is important.

Better get back to work for now! Czytaj więcej
