Day 198

29th September 2022

Chess Club

I slept in today and ran late for work. 🙄

I couldn’t help it!

I only had one glass of wine with the girls last night, but I woke up feeling like I’d been on a weeklong bender.

I needed breakfast and hot tea, fast! ☕🥞🍌

As I was leaving, Lincy’s mate turned up for a playdate.

When I got home, I found them like this; geeking out on chess. ♟️

Linc, patiently waiting to play the winner.

Skate!

Lincoln only knows one speed. 😆

Dad had taken them skating and they were bushed!

Linc is the best skater!!

He goes flat out the entire session and usually knocks down at least a couple of people. 😬

People see him and get out of his way. 😂 Bless that boy!

When we were kids there was a huge skate way in our town. (It just turned into an Aldi last year. 😭)

I have so many fond memories of tearing it up, at the skate way.

The song Popcorn was always played during the speed skate and they always played that Kiss song ‘I was made for loving you’ at some stage.

Oh, and the bird dance.

Buddies since preschool. 😍

So, after the chess games, Mila made some cookies. Well she started making cookies, but decided she wanted to make cookie muffins, which were a delicious & creative endeavour! 🍪🍪🍪

Next, my friend came to collect her boy and we sat with tea for a while, and caught up.

Hot Yoga

Ok, so I have this theory.

When you reach your mid 40’s, you can go one of 2 ways.

You maintain fitness and figure, or you put on a couple of kilos each year and become still, with age.

I really want to be active well into my 60’s and 70’s.

I always want to enjoy hiking, skiing, camping, swimming; all of it!

So, I started a ‘buns of steel’ page and invited some friends.

Tonight, was the first class.

I am SO out of shape!!

I sweated my little heart out, in there.

Buns of steel, here I come!👊
