Getting FIREd up 😀

Well just call me Mrs Consistency - a whole year without missing a daily check-in on Storewards 🤣!

I just love those free coins!

How do you manage that?! Everyday I have to check in slightly later than the day before to make it work. It means you invariably miss days. Plus there were a few days where they did an update and the app kept crashing!

Sheer bloody-mindedness (and no kids to distract me 🤣)! I agree it's v annoying it's at a different time each day, but if it's not there by the time I go to bed then it always is first thing the next morning and it still counts 👍

Whoever fed us the twin myths of a) "exercise is good for you"; and b) "consistency is the key to building good habits" needs shooting. I am just back from an hour-long run in what can probably be best described as a storm. At a couple of points I was running uphill and directly into the wind ("gusts of up to 30mph", according to my weather app). I have been splashed by waves, and run along a path in a park which was underwater due to the road outside flooding it. Then it started pouring with rain....😮

Just having a brief breather before I get ready to go out in it again 😱!

(Such a shame exercise is good for you and consistency is the key to building good habits 🤦‍♀️!)

Today was much better! Still wet and windy, and the path was still a bit underwater (but I was wise to it this time, and went across it rather than along it), but nothing like the same extent and no splashy salty waves 😀!

Well done on going out in the rain, and running at that!

I admire you I bailed out of golf as it was so wet underfoot takes stamina to go out at this time of year. 

South_coast

Thanks both 😀! I was pleased with myself for doing it, but it was bl**dy hard work at the time! The rain I can cope with, but the wind....😱!

So, I know I said "no goals", but I was very taken with this idea:

(No, I'm not on a commission from Raptitude 🤣)

I've given it some thought for a few days, and have taken the plunge and written my two lists (5 on each side). I'm still counting this as "no goals", as they're not really things you'd set as goals (certainly not SMART, and I won't be doing any monitoring or reporting), more sort of nudges in the right direction. I like it!
