I have decided that I will continue with just the daily step count and not bother with the other bits. Yesterday I did 10170 steps, as well as doing an hour of water aerobics. Very pleased with myself. Helen came to tea and we had a rolled turkey roast cooked in the barbecue with potatoes and pumpkin and a delicious warm salad of cauliflower and green beans. I adapted that from Margaret Johnson's "Recipe of the Day" in The West Australian. She has lots of good recipes and I have collected a bundle of clippings.
Early today, just after sunrise, we went for a walk at Woodman's Point. This is a strenuous walk because of the loose sand, but we had a bonus. There was a dolphin and her baby swimming just offshore - less than 3 metres away. They were plunging in and out of the weed bank - each time they came to the surface their fins were festooned with loose weed. It was a lovely sight and we watched for 5 minutes or so.
When we got home I went straight to the sewing room. I completed one workshop sample and made a good start on another. This needs hand stitching, so it may take me a while to finish it. The third sample has colours and fabric selected. I plan to cut and stitch tomorrow after I have been to water aerobics.
Because of the time I spent at the sewing machine I haven't managed a terribly good step tally. I think I'll be lucky to reach 7000.
