Two firsts

[frualeydis]

 Yesterday I finally got down to the gym where I have had membership for almost trhee months. First Valeria, who I am going with got sick, then I went ot England and the Netherlands and has way too much work in between those trips, then I sprained my ankle badly, then Valeria got sick again. And I didn't want to go there on my own the first time.

But now I've ben there and can go again, though probably not today. The plan is to go at least twice a week.

Something has to be done, because I have started gaining weight and I am up almost three kilos (six pounds) from my lowest.(I now weigh 61.6 kilos)

I also cooked something with quorn for the first time yesterday.

In other news I'm not enjoying this part of menopause at all, getting so hot that it feel like you could fry things on me, followed by being really cold.

I have started on a pair of reasonably 16th century knit socks to give to Alfhild when I step down as baroness in a month, for all her service to me during our reign. I have also made a painted glass for Valeria, for the same reason.

Yay for getting to the gym! Good luck keeping the weight in check--that number 60 is a bit of a psychological boundary, and the underside looks (and feels) better for me than the top side.

I guess I have been lucky, while there have been four times in the last year and a half when I thought it was hot and no one else did, it didn't feel as hot as you described, and I haven't had any problem with feeling cold. (I like my phone log program, it is so easy to look it up and see that there have been only four times.)

Am trying to loose weight too. Hugs.

Still open for a workout buddy. I just have to clear out my sewing room first. :(
