Getting into a routine

I am trying to get into the habit of going to the gym.  It takes about 15 minutes to get there, so I can go, get showered and be ready again in about 90 minutes.

This is the gym and swimming pool building;

It’s usually empty, I plug in the Ipod listen to a good audio book or podcast and admire the view.

Sometimes this seems a huge chunk out of my day when I only have 6 hours, but I’m cutting down on internet surfing time and to be honest I’m not feeling too chatty atm as things are not so good again.

My neighbours pulled out a hawthorn hedge yesterday which was not only was beautiful and must have harboured lots of wildlife but this removed most of the screening we might have had between us and the caravan site he has instigated.  I was in tears at the thought of the trees being ripped out.  When we approached him he was incredibly rude and said the total opposite to everything he had agreed the week before when talking to DH.  Why are some people on this earth just so horrible?  I can’t understand it.

I have been creating some hand carved stamps (more to follow), this is the first one for about 5 yrs.

And doing a bit of this….. but I can’t really show you why until August.  You’ll just have to be patient :)

  1. Problems seems to come in waves, don't they. They say "it never rains but it pours" .... Hopefully it will all turn around for you soon. Keep your chin up. People care.
    As for your neighbour ... its so frustrating and annoying, that some people just have no understanding of nature and all it stands for. I would be just as angry too. Maybe the gym will help you vent some anger, Lol! Good luck with it ... I started a diet regime 2 days ago, but every time I start to exercise something interrupts me ... perhaps its an omen, as I'm hopeless at exercise. Hope you fare better.

    poor helen - you do sound low again and i had hoped this was going to be a better time for you after last year - do take care and don't do too much at the gym - swimming is more fun I think!
