Weekly Reflections
Reasons to be cheerful ...
- chatting with friends
- getting my hair cut
- finding some more online courses to try out
- bumping into an old friend I haven't seen in years and chatting for ages
- learning how to make onion bhajis!
- continuing to enjoy the splashes of colour in the garden from the spring flowers
- finishing the spring cleaning in my playroom
- having fun trying out the exercises from the online photography class
- appreciating the extra space now the charity shop donations have left the house
- watching the Great British Sewing Bee
- having some productive days and that pleasing feeling of being tired but content with the day's activities
I am grateful ...
- to S for his help dealing with the charity shop donations and collecting the bags of compost from the garden centre
- for a week of better weather, still cold but thankfully mostly dry
- that, at least locally, people seem to be taking a sensible and cautious approach to the easing of the lockdown arrangements
Lifestyle changes
- exercise (30 minutes minimum every day): achieved
- weight: no change again ... I need to rethink what I'm doing to kick-start the weight loss!
You can count that as a very good week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Eileen, yes it has been a very good week.
DeleteLots of reasons to be cheerful, this week! :) Sounds like you've reached a plateau in the weight loss, but, they happen from time to time, don't they?
ReplyDeleteThanks Bless. Yes, it's an expected plateau but I want to work out how to get past it. I have a lot more weight to lose and especially want to lose another half stone before by next lot of blood tests at the end of July. Fingers are crossed, but I think I can achieve that if I make a few tweaks.
DeleteI really enjoy these weeks reflections and it definitely sounds like you have had a positive week. Hope you have a lovely Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane. It's been a good week ending with a very lazy day today!
DeleteWhat a nice week you had! Enjoy the Sunday!
ReplyDeleteThanks Irune. I've had a lovely week and next week looks like being just as good. Today has been very quiet and rather lazy, just recharging the batteries!
DeleteSuch a busy week with so much to be happy about and grateful for :)
ReplyDeleteLife is feeling good and I'm happy with the balance I'm achieving. xx
DeleteWell done! Lovely lists.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon x
DeleteIt sounds as though your week went well. I've not manage to finish much spring cleaning, but I have gathered up some things for charity as well. I want to hunt through one more closet and then I can drop them off. It will be good to get them out of the house - it makes us feel lighter in spirit, I know.
ReplyDeleteThings are looking up and I'm in a good place at the moment. As you say, as things are leaving the house the weight is lifting and that has a positive impact on my emotional well-being.
