Housework will be the exercise of the day, followed by 30 minutes of aerobics if I can get everyone out of the livingroom later

TQ, What is an ear bandit??? Sounds interesting. Cat....you are a walkaholic luv, you are brilliant putting all those miles on you. Carol, housework must count as exercise, I do enough of it to count I swear. And I've worked a sweat up doing some of it at times too!

Am just physcing myself up to go for a walk. Not sure whether to go for the 3 mile round circuit or whether just to walk up to the Co op do some shopping and walk back, a mere 2 miles.

Will need to get dressed first, as snuggly as my dressing gown is think people will laugh at me

An ear band-it is like as neoprene band that helps to keep water out of your ears when swimming, you can see it on earbandit.com, I hope nobody laughs at me in it!! I am trying to prevent a re-occerence of the ear infection from ****

If it's the 'betty's' in the pool who laugh (betty equals woman swimming in full makeup and hair still perfect) please swim past doing a splashy stroke and give them a big soak from all of us.

Went for a lovely 2 mile walk yesterday morning and then a hike with the boys, must have been at least another 2 miles, but it was over rough terrain. Was just lovelyin the sunshine

Went for a walk in a downpour at lunchtime today.

Why can't this weather be consistent, and by that Iwant yesterdays sunshine back not more of todays rain.

Default A mystery

OK so two weeks ago I couldn't do an ab-crunch come love or money but since than have been doing some pilates exercises to build up stomach muscles, not much though. On thursday I was walking past the ab-cruncher and thought I'd give it another go and did 50, could feel the burn as I did them and nothing else hurt so thought I must be doing them correctly. I thought I wouldn't be able to move the next morning but I was in no pain at all so did 50 on Friday, 75 saturday and sunday and 100 just. Still no pain. So what is happening? Surely something should hurt? My husband says I must be doing them wrong but he watched me and said I seemed to be doing them OK and as I pointed out, surely if I was doing them wrong something else would hurt? When I've done them before its always been my neck muscles that have taken the brunt but they are OK too. I'm just wondering if anyone else thinks this is normal or could it mean I'm doing them wrong?

I would be grateful for any advice. I'm more than happy to keep doing them but would like to feel a bit more confident that I'm doing them correctly!

Thanks
