Project 365 week 20.

Well me and my Fitbit are getting on very well together, I have been using it for 9 days and it has measured 156,626 steps in that time. We have logged up 64.44 miles with 21hrs and 29 mins of fat burning and 6 hrs 50 mins of cardio. My resting pulse rate is an average of 58. Only thing I am not keen with it is it is awkward to get the charger to stay in the back of it. I am not allowed to wear it when on duty but find it picks up the step count more accurately on my ankle than in my pocket. Its mileage is spot on with mapmywalk. 

Been a lovely week all week here, with a few spots of rain one afternoon.


Sunday

No overtime so another walk with hubby and dog. Down through the woods. The clean up Tarbolton woods group have added side rails to the bridge to make it safer. Met a friend and her little girl while we were there.

The garlic is very prolific at the moment and taking over from the bluebells.








Monday

Dropped Bob at gymnastics and went for a walk round Auchencruive. This is a picture of hubby taking a photo of a helicopter.  Home for some tea and back out for another walk round Lily's wood and across the fields to the bottom road. The fields are not far away from silaging and so being a small dog Dixie needs to bounce through the long grass.







Tuesday

Into the town to buy some wood for hubby to sort a problem with the old shed. Then a walk through the high hilly part of Auchincruive.
Today I manage to complete the Samsung health challenge of 200.000 steps for the month. Took me until the 20th last month.








Wednesday

An early morning babysitting session as SIL needed to leave for work at 8am and DD1 and Bob had left before that for another Glasgow hospital appointment.  If you leave at 7am you get there just after 8 so time for a coffee as appointment is at 9. If you don't leave till 7.30 and will be late for appointment due to volume of traffic.
Bob is to start on immunosuppressant to see if it helps with his skin and breathing. 
I dropped twins at nursery and walked home with Spud, she helped me do some much needed housework and then we went to play in the park before going back down the road to get the twins back.
I had a dentist appointment in the afternoon, luckily just a quick polish was needed.




Thursday

I went down to the woods for a few hours with DD1 and the grandkids. We went over the new bridge and into the picnic area and spent a lot of the day playing in the river. We found the fishing net, and left it behind for others to have fun with.
A blog post will follow.



Friday

A bit of shopping, organising food for the weekend and an evening walk with the dog.

Spotted the ducks and ducklings crossing from one pond to another.




Saturday

Picked up these mirrors last week, they look great half way up the stairs. we moved the cabinet up there as we had to move the teddies as Dixie dog keeps running away with them.

  4. How lovely to play by the river. The weather has been lovely most of the week. Hope Bob benefits from immunosuppressants and it helps with the skin and breathing. Big well done on walking challenges. So envious of all that wild garlic. I wish there was some nearby for my cooking.

  5. Wow! I keep saying it every week but you are doing so well with the walking. When you put the steps and the miles you have logged up it really shows.
    Good luck to Bob with the new treatment.
    Those mirrors look fab!

  7. The grandkids look like they’re loving it in the water. And I’ve never seen garlic grow wild like that and look like it’s taking over everything!
