Not a happy bunny

Hobart, here we come..... but not quite yet




Woke up at 3.45am to discover a message cancelling our flight to Hobart at 06.15. Message sent 2 hours after we had gone to sleep last night. Just enough time to cancel the taxi we ordered without incurring a penalty so we'll use the money saved to buy brunch later as there's no food left in the fridge. Well start again at 2.30pm




Unfortunately we can't go to MONA now as it's closed on all our other free days. We had hoped to have a nice evening meal at the wharf tonight before bad weather sets in for the rest of the week but we'll be lucky now if we get to our hotel by 10.00pm tonight. So much for our relaxing Spring break before BHA competition begins

Our friend was on the same flight but missed the notification of change as she was travelling to the airport. Originally she was going via Sydney but is now on a flight at 6.00am TOMORROW!


1.5 hour delay in Adelaide. Now in Melbourne and another 2 hour delay. Due to take off around 9.00pm. Stopped giving out drinks just as they reached our row as it was time to prepare for landing. 12 of us got nothing... the bad luck continues.

Will we make the hotel before midnight? Watch this space!

Finally!!!!!
11.45pm

Fast Start ... the journey begins

Well, I decided to bite the bullet and try TWD 'Fast Start'. I've been on various meal plans for over 3 years but, after a good initial loss, Covid and life in general got in the way and there's been very little progress since. My reasons for trying this? 1. I need a fresh start and new focus  2. I have upcoming surgery and need recovery time (my husband can't cook) so want to simplify things  3 As a 'Group Expert' I'd like to be better informed PREPARATION DAY and DAY ONE ... discovering the pitfalls Set up was fun. Firstly, I managed to start immediately instead of just previewing, so my first day became week 2! Next I found I'd set level 2 (much as I'd like extra milk for coffee, I certainly don't need three shakes) Then I got an email asking for my weight and picture... really? Got there in the end though Now for the shakes themselves. I've never tried replacement meals so was not sure what to expect. For breakfast I chose strawberry ...

The Journey Begins

Image
After a couple of years of constant knee pain, I started trials with an Adelaide University looking at ways to improve my mobility and reduce pain by learning, setting and reviewing goals, doing gentle exercise and embarking on a walking programme.   My journey began in June 2021 and here I am 3 months later , much improved and sharing some of my favourite walks. Many have been done several times, others just once but hope to try again and a few I hope to attempt in the near future as my fitness levels improve. I firmly believe that OA need not end in surgery and that there are many things I can do to alleviate pain without taking medication, exercise will help not hinder progress and that this condition will not get progressively worse. I set my first goal - to walk to the Punchbowl lookout at Onkaparinga Gorge. This gently sloping walk on firm gravel takes just under an hour with photo stops and is approximately 2km long. I completed it on 22nd AUGUST! I was certainly o...

With 300 pictures to choose from it's hard to pick my top 30 but here's a selection .... with some duplicates. Also there's a reminder that, when we arrived home,  Autumn's arrived in the Hills as the clocks went back (Gather Round weekend too)
