So yesterday was Mother's Day over here and was I reclining in luxury, pampered and waited on hand and foot by my loving family, surrounded by flowers and chocolates? Was I heck. My day was mostly spent doing VAT for the quarterly return at work and catching up with washing. Fabulous. DS did turn up in the afternoon with a card (he's staying at his girlfriend's new place a lot since we helped her move in last week) and DD was struggling to keep her head above water with her all male family, including the new puppy and a sinus infection bless her - no luxury for her either. So much for our Hallmark moment!
Good job no-one was home earlier today when I decided to try out those workouts I recorded! Salsa with Kimberley lasted for about 14 minutes; I'm about as Pineapple Studios as Big Bird and I soon got hacked off trying to keep up. Morning Wake Up with Winston bit the dust when he tried to get me to get up off the floor five times in a row as the introductory exercise - he'd finished before I'd done two. Doonya Bollywood got put to another day, but I have no hope that my two left feet will do any better than with the salsa - I can't follow Zumba on my Wii either. I gave up and went with good old C25K on the cross trainer once I'd dug it out from under the detritus it was decorated with. I need to get moving to stand a chance with the new challenge on here. Took me all day to talk myself into it though. Not a natural athlete here - built for comfort, not for speed as the saying goes! I'll try another one tomorrow. Maybe.
