Exercise.

Those who know me are aware of my need to shed a few pounds. To that end, a few months ago I took up TaeKwon Do. Both Chris and Thomas also attend, though Thomas blows hot and cold. We had our first lesson of 2008 last night. The hall was FREEZING!!! My feet just wouldn't warm up, and the squat jumps made them worse. However, Sir and Ma'am had s doing lots of stretches - I like stretches, they're relatively easy. It's the running and jumping I struggle with. We also did patterns - the boys and I are currently learning Chon-ji, which means 'Heaven and Earth'.

By the time we got home, we were tired, but I'm glad that I had gone, because all those endorphins rushing round make me feel so good.

It was freezing cold her last night - I had my side of the electric blanket on all night. Today is just as cold - the heating is working overtime to keep us all warm.

Thomas is a happy boy - his friend Callum from across the road came over earlier on, and I have said he can stay until 5pm - they have shut themselves in Thomas's bedroom, playing Star Wars. Oh to be 9 again.
Todays picture was taken at Mudford Rec in August 2006 - oh to feel the sun again!
