So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

[Alexander]

Planning to leave my house in 10-20 minutes to find somewhere to eat. Trying to make the most of eating out before the national lockdown comes into effect, which is Thursday. COVID-19 has caused so much disruption to everyone's lives.

Went out for a walk this afternoon. This was a pure walk - no jogging at all, even though my system felt like it wanted to go faster I decided to take an easier day because I set a good time yesterday. As it happened I still set a pretty good time given I was walking the entire way, and my fitness is obviously improving because I wasn't far off personal best times for walking but I don't think my pulse even made it as high as 130.

Now I've got a couple of wooden plinths I made from recovered cedar wood in the basement drying. The top sides have two coats of lacquer and the underside has a single coat, that's currently still wet. I only put a single coat on the underside because there doesn't seem like a lot of point putting another coat on. Once that's dry I've got some small feet that stick on, to keep the underside from rubbing against whatever we put them on. My wife uses them for a couple of ornaments she has. The lacquer really brings out the color in the cedar wood, they really look very nice.

Howdy sup there! How are you doing so far with your day? Today, since it’s an awfully cold, but sunny and dry day outside, just enjoying my usual TV show before lulling myself to sleep.

I accepted a new job today and start in about 30 days.

Are you excited for this new change? Do you have to travel far?

 

[Naiwen]

Hello morning all! How are you? Today, because it’s another awfully cold, dark yet dry day outside, feeling like 3C, just playing some games on my phone before hitting the pillow tonight.

Had to go for my blood work this morning and hoping to check in on the portal later to see if my thyroid meds will stay the same or need increasing.

Just got one of my windows fixed. The guy who fitted them seems to be a total waste of space. At the time I thought he'd done a good job but since I've been fixing up the house I've come to see just how many shortcuts he took. I gave up on getting him to ever come back to fix a couple of problems and went straight to the supplier. They gave me the parts I needed to do a couple of easy fixes and showed me how to fit them (I literally needed a cross-head screwdriver and a big flat-head screwdriver) and today their man came in to fix something a little more involved. Having watched him do the job I can probably do it myself if the need arises, it looked easier than I expected.

My wife is off to do the grocery shopping so maybe I'll go take a walk while she's out.

 

[Naiwen]

Happy Friday all! Today, as it’s yet another very cold, dark and gloomy but dry day outside, just playing some games on my Wii before hitting the bed tonight.

Busy day today. Got a run in while my wife was grocery shopping and set a new PB for the route. Since I've only recently started jogging more of it I'm expecting to shave a bit off my PB several times for a short time, then find I set new ones less frequently. Then we had a friend round who is a real estate agent to give us some ideas for fixing the place up, with a view to making sure we don't do anything that makes the place unsellable if we decide to move to get away from the main road. Now just waiting for supper to come out of the oven.

 

[Lamb]

I have a doctor's appointment and have to leave soon since it takes an hour to get there. I'm hoping the parking garage isn't too full.

 

[Naiwen]

Happy weekend all! How are you? Today, I’ve just had leftover pizza with spring rolls and lemon iced tea for lunch. Tonight, just relaxing online before hitting the sack.

Went for a nice walk in the woods with my wife. When she is with me we typically take an easier route and at a gentler pace than when I'm going solo, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Today's route was just over six miles of gently rolling hills, with a loop that's a nice walk when it's clear. Today it needed a little work to get past a few downed branches and the like, but I always carry a pair of pruners and a folding saw when I'm hiking for situations like that.

Now we're getting cleaned up ready for friends coming for dinner.

 

[Lamb]

Making ravioli today for my husband and daughter to have on Thanksgiving.

 

[Naiwen]

Yo sup there all man! How are you today? Today, I’ve just had leftover pizza with lemon iced tea for lunch again. Tonight, just enjoying my usual TV show before heading to bed.

 

[Lamb]

Going for a walk before it gets too hot outside today. I'd like to wash my vehicle too since it will be a perfect day to do it.

Go for a really long walk. Long enough to find yourself standing beside my car. It could do with a wash

 

[Naiwen]

Happy Sunday all! How’s it going so far with your day? Today, just been catching up on sleep as I’ve had yet another bad night again last night.

 

[Naiwen]

Hello morning all! How are you? This morning, I’ve just had my 3 hours weekly therapy session both online and by phone. The afternoon, I’m indeed way too exhausted to do anything else but rest in bed before heading the sack tonight.

 

[tango]

Another nice walk in the woods today. My wife was with me, and we held a slightly higher pace than last time. We tried a new route but didn't care for it as much as our normal route, so we'll revert to our normal route going forward.

Howdy sup there! How are ye all doing today? Today, since it’s an unusually hot and humid day outside, currently feeling like 21C and the heat wave will be continuing till tomorrow, just re-watching the movie “Avatar 1” on Disney plus before heading to sleep tonight.
