Felt like spring today and I did ’spring things.’ I cleaned the car - it is a combo car - people in the front, dog in the back. When he was a puppy he chewed all the rear seatbelts and the window handles off, so I just ceded him the territory. I am not ferrying kids around so it is not a problem. Also cleaned out the bbq and some flowerpots. I feel so productive!
I took the animal out to the beach again and about 30 minutes into our walk I fell quite badly - tripped over something, while going at a top speed and landed hard on my knees and my forehead. Luckily my sport sunglasses helped cushion it, but I have a nice goose egg on my forehead. My poor face, it is never going to end, is it? However, I am happy that I am on track to meet my nike ipod thingy goal of walking 120 km in 8 weeks (from May 1). Also am happy I drank so much milk as a kid - I must have armour-plated bones; I am lucky I didn’t crack a wrist today.

Spring cleaning always puts some pep in you, doesn’t it?
Glad you’re still on track, and that you didn’t get seriously hurt when you fell.

I can hear spring in your voice! Hope your knee is ok from the fall. I know the goose egg is painful but that heels better than knees do!
Cheers

Glad you didn’t get too badly hurt - good bones come in handy! Way to go on being on track with the walking and everything!

Gosh that sounds like a terrible fall. Glad you didn’t get hurt more than you did.
lol @ “ceded him the territory”!
Good for you for all the cleaning.
