Day 282 a motivational start to the day and lovely walk in the sun ☀️☀️☀️

It’s the 2nd January 2021, about -1C and beautiful sunshine again today. It’s been the best start to a New Year. I had a motivational start……

So a huge yes to all of the above. I’ve spent a lot of the holidays feeling antsy and nervous. If I’m honest I think I’ve always been unsettled over Christmas and particularly Hogmanay and New Year in the past. I don’t know if it’s been pressure to party or reflections on the year or of the future? I honestly don’t know. Other than Grandad dying on Christmas Day 1984, nothing bad has ever happened around these times. It’s just not my favourite time of the year for some reason. Anyway, we are now back to the anonymity of January and I feel like I can plod back on with my life.

Don’t tell anyone but I actually logged my breakfast into My Fitness Pal this morning. No one was more shocked than me. It wasn’t the plan, I just did it. Not shouting it from the rooftops, just writing it in my wee blog which no one will see so it’s fine 🤷🏻‍♀️😬🤣

We went into Barmill Park and had our cuppa up at a picnic bench with a view over the park and a lovely wander round after our cuppa and up in to the old railway. I had no idea the railway track was actually still up there.

The Rangers- Celtic new year derby was still on when I got home so I went for shower, did my osteopath exercises and sat writing this. Almost 12k steps so far today… it’s been a while…. my knee is sore but hey, it could be worse.

I have my feet up in front of the fire, my hair is drying naturally and I’m feeling pretty good. Settle down for the evening already and it’s only 3.50pm!! Be rude not to. Rangers may have won so someone is happy. 💙

There have been over 50,000 new cases of COVID-19 every day for the last 3 days… it’s the worst it’s been….

Stay safe everyone ☀️☀️☀️
