Pants

Back to some sort of routine today after my weekend away, and first of all is a session down the gym.

Everything is going fine until I start running, and it appears that where I have lost weight my track suit bottoms don't want to stay up so I'm constantly pulling them up to preserve my modesty and not end up flashing my pants to everyone in the gym. After about 10 minutes of constantly hoisting them I give up and slow the pace of the tread mill to a slow jog, which sorts the problem out and allows me to get through my cardio / fat burning stuff without too much distress thankfully!

After the gym I go home and get some lunch and a shower and then head on into town to go buy some new tracksuit bottoms in a smaller size. I was doubtful if any of the sport shops in town would be able to accommodate my ample arsage, but luck has it that I find a pair of tracksuit bottoms that fit nice and snug and will probably last me for the foreseeable future. So not only was I pleased about that, I was also pleased about the fact that I have now increased my clothes shop choices to at least 2 rather than the 1 I've been spending my money in since about the age of 16 :)

When I get back to the house I then potter around the garden for a while and do a few little jobs that need seeing to. The grass needed cutting, the rose out the front needed tying to its trellis and I also needed to mark out a new edge to our lawn since its gotten a bit uneven and is slowly creeping into the flower bed. All that remains for me to do on that front is to pick out some suitable edging and dig out a channel to pop the edging stones into. I think I'll leave that till Wednesday though when I don't have to go to the gym.

The dregs of the day are then spent faffing on the computer and then preparing tea - it's chicken tonight with oven roasted veg and once we've eaten Phil kindly puts some new code into my blog meaning that the archive section is now in the form of a drop down rather than a huge long list. It's neater and saves on screen real estate, so I'm happy :)
