Out With The Old

Thursday

It’s been a fabulous time of spring cleaning and it’s not over yet. You can’t accumulate 30 years of stuff and expect to get it sorted overnight. But I have made a good start and yesterday I was so happy to see the back of a couple of bags of clothes and some other things that Valerie-Gail from Beautiful Gate came and carried off. If you are in the Fish Hoek area, she will come to your house and load up her trusty car and carry them off to the BG shop. The shop is in a container at Beautiful Gate and is well-arranged…

Happy customers come round and see what’s new. All proceeds go to Beautiful Gate.

If you need more info, you can email Valerie-Gail directly – Bg4thechildren@yahoo.com

This morning, instead of going to gym, Mike and I sorted out the front garden. I put my exercise watch on to see how many calories would get burned in gardening. We worked for 1 hour and 12 minutes. I did some weed-eating, sweeping, moving paving stones, putting them back and cutting up big branches. I walked 2.36km  but only burned 77 calories. My heart rate got up to 131 which was quite impressive (moving the paving stones did that). My average heart rate was 101. I have to conclude that working out in the garden is not a proper work out. I’ll go to gym and get a proper work out so that gardening work is easy to do. It was really easy this morning. And the garden looks much better.

A very early blog today.

Proverbs 9:11

Wisdom will multiply your days and add years to your life.

These are the days.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.
