Hi Tilly
I even went for a run on Monday..out of necessity you understand..only way I could get round the chores in time so literally put on my trainers and ran between appointments! Knackered afterwards though. Big bike ride with family planned this weekend so that's good.
Hope you are enjoying the sun.MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal

Morning, at the airport waiting to fly home. I've had a fantastic few days and feel well rested.
Sun, friends, good food - what more could a girl want.
Looking forward to seeing Mr at tomorrow. He's away tonight and the kids and I will be having posh burgers, their favourite rolls which I'm bringing home and salad from the garden.
Limited spends whilst over here.
What I have done is spent some quality time on my own and given myself time to breath and think. Truly it has been glorious and just what was needed.
I'll catch up with everyone's diaries to see what's going on
