Fellow bloggers

Just been looking around the blogosphere (well, just this blog site really) to find any fellow bloggers who are my age, sex and size.

Don't know about the size thing, but I like this lady - http://lifeinthesecondhalf.blogspot.com/
And this one - http://fatfrumpyandfifty.blogspot.com/ has a wonderful blog page.

I am trying to work out how to "follow" someone else's blog. Defeated by technology. Will finish breakfast and have another go later.

Cakes and gardens

Wow - wonderful day yesterday. Burghley House, one of our local stately homes, opened its private garden for visitors. Small donation to charity required. Beautiful setting, wonderful flowers and amazing vistas.

Sun was shining. Gorgeous.

Had tea and cakes in the Orangery garden. (Cakes? I know. Tut tut. another 1,000 calories on the hips. But who would notice!)

Walked so far that I got blisters and chafing of the thighs but this was a small price to pay for a great day out.

Failed again!

Well, I have to confess that I did not hit the gym yesterday. Lots of reasons (as usual).

1. friend called and we had a wonderful telephone chat,
2. sun was shining in my part of Cambridgeshire,
3. gardening needed doing
4. I ate 6 biscuits and had a piece of cake.

Today I am definitely doing some gardening and I might go for a walk.

Gym

Joined a gym in January. Not been yet. Am wearing tracksuit now.
Should I go?
Or maybe coffee and biscuit first?
Hi all,

This is the first post of my new blog.
So, a bit about myself.
I am a large lady.
I live alone (family flown, gorgeous hubby gone to a better place).
I love life.
I surround myself with beautiful things.
I enjoy gardening and all things related to mother earth.
I have a love-hate relationship with food.
Want to learn more?
Well so do I!
