Not enough time

I haven't blogged lately, I feel that I don't have enough time to do everything else and blog, so blogging will have to take a backseat for a short while. It is raining here at the moment, I can see that the driveway is wet, I really hope it rains for the rest of the day. I have been busy making a couple of things for Christmas, my mother wanted a pincushion so I've made one, will post a picture later.
Out walking this morning I saw a heap of galahs pecking away on the grass, some of them were lying on their backs and I thought maybe they were dead but no, they were just having a dust bath and they flipped right way up when I got closer, it made me smile.

I haven't blogged for a few days, I have a sore shoulder which is making it difficult to do certain things, typing being one of them. Part of my routine is to keep fit and healthy as I age and one of the ways I do this is by lifting weights and aerobic exercise (in my case walking or using the cross-trainer) during the week, my goal is 4 weight sessions and a minimum of 3 aerobic sessions each week. Generally I manage to do this and have done so for the past couple of months, (I have been doing this for about 5 years with lapses) last week I increased my weights and noticed on Tuesday that I had a sore shoulder, so I am having a week off weights and just going for a walk each day in the hope that next week it will be right and I can resume lifting weights again. I think I have worked out which exercise caused the problem so I will have to work around it and/or use lighter weights.

I did manage to do a few things on the weekend, I covered my folder and now have to start putting things into it. I altered the clothes, I didn't turn the compost or re-organise the spare room, but maybe I will be able to do that this week.
