An Energetic Weekend!

Considering I couldn't actually move on Friday - I've been very energetic this weekend!

I went for a little walk (couple of miles) on Saturday morning as a family friend was in hospital nearby, so I thought it would be rude not to go visit. Particularly as I regularly walk to the hospital anyway.

Then spent an hour in the gym in the company of the lovely T!

And then spent the second consecutive Saturday night with the gorgeous MM2. We better watch out, this could become a bad (but fun!) habit. We walked up the hill. It's a big hill - so big it's nearly a mountain, but not quite! We even ran a little bit! Now that was a shock to the system! Have discovered that my legs are in fine shape, but my lungs are knackered!

Actually, am quite pleased with the way my legs are shaping up at the moment - they're becoming very toned with all this exercise. However, my hips don't half ache sometimes and my right knee's a bit dodgy! It's usually when I'm in bed that my hips ache - it's really painful and I don't understand why they're aching so much.

On Sunday I visited my good friends G&K. They have fairly recently moved to a nearby village and have entered into the spirit of village life by volunteering to deliver some leaflets for the annual garden festival. But rather than volunteer to deliver leaflets to homes in the villages, they'd volunteered to deliver them to the outlying farms and houses!

It made for a fantastic walk though! We saw some beautiful countryside, some equally beautiful homes, discovered a sculpture garden, met some very friendly people, got very wet in the rain and had a fantastic walk!

Mind you, all this exercise hasn't made me sleep any better :-( Any suggestions? Other than a session with the wonderful Mr Hypnosis - which obviously isn't going to happen now!
