I’ve just done my 100th swim since May 1st. 35 so far this month. 💃 🏊♀️ 💦
A full hour of swimming, yesterday & today, plus cooking, with six portions for the freezer, & eating a big meal = an afternoon lying on the spare bed upstairs watching Birds of a Feather.😆

I often think of how my grandparents* had a silver holder for their cheese spread triangles. Finally googled. Yeah, here it is!
* This was in Suffolk. You knew it was a posh tea when Grandma got this out. Fancy.

Stills from the reel I put on FB & instagram. You’ll have to sing the song yourself.

My new MacBook Air has talked to my iPhone & they’ve merrily synched up. ‘iPhone mirroring’. Who knew? My Apple Watch already talks to my phone. I’m completely Appled.

Now I need to be writing songs & making videos & organising my life admin, which thankfully these days is just my own.💃

And now I’m pretending I’m Norwegian in my own pool. I am adamant* I’m not turning the temperature higher than 27degrees C. Even in the dead of winter.
Adam Ant wasn’t Norwegian, was he?🤔

45 minutes swimming by 10.30am. Now back in bed having breakfast. Have decided I’m not trying to swim twice a day till the weather is warmer & the evenings are lighter (cos I keep failing to get back in!) but to do more in my one swim a day. 45-50 mins a day would be doable.

A friend’s mum has apparently asked if Sal ‘still has that pool’.
Nah! It was just an extremely expensive seven month whim & has now been dismantled & sold on Facebook marketplace for a tenner.😳🙄

Did 3k steps, nice being back on buses, walked round Sainsburys choosing useful/tasty stuff for food bank & a few bits for me, was reminded how much food’s gone up, had good humoured moan w/ a man about the bus station. Now home eating Marmite crisps. Will I leave home again before end of the year?🤔

You spell the word exercising correctly & your phone pops up with the suggestion that maybe you meant exorcising.
Nope.

They’re trying to SELL us scoopable fibre powder now. Of course we can’t eat 20 onions a day. And there are no other vegetables or fruit with fibre, or beans, lentils, seeds, wholewheat breads or cereals. It’s cos ‘they’ think we should have no carbs, just steak, eggs, cheese & butter.
That’s MAD😠

I love swimming while listening to the rain pelting down outside. I’m glad I wasn’t in the pool when the earthquake struck the other night though.😬🤣

I’ve started the Fortnum & Mason biscuits. They are a tad more-ish. And I will be doing my second 30 minute swim of the day in an hour’s time.
