Lift, Train, Fitness

It's good that you have a doctor who is thorough.
 
Mentally have not felt like posting or even being online the past week, lots of traffic on the roads at the moment with idiots fleeing the lockdown areas. Had chest x-ray won't know results till next doc appointment.
 
It's amazing that we continue to be amazed by the human race's stupidity. Take good care of yourself & your family, Tru. I hope pneumonia has cleared & you continue to regain your strength.

There are around 50 caravans trying to fit into the rest stop on the south side of town, from what I have been told, a mix of Brisbane, Sunshine coast and NSW people trying to avoid the lockdowns. The CBD is packed full of people from down south who should have stayed there.

Luckily we keep a good supply of essentials including TP in case of severe weather events (cyclones) but that also works well when idiots strip the supermarket shelves and they don't even live in the area. More than a few times only half joking hubby has called me a doomsday prepper lol

one of our big chooks has gone broody, hopefully we will get some chicks as she is the in a pen with the feisty young rooster who tried to take a piece out of me a few weeks ago.
 
I always have a good supply of essentials too, being brought up as a grocers' daughter. I just think it's smart. G thinks it's funny but he doesn't mind when he goes to cook & has "all of the choices". What is with the over the top toilet paper shopping? What is wrong with these people?
That feisty rooster is still alive?

He got banished to a pen away from the house with the bully hen (moved there months ago), both calmed down a lot when penned with one of our mature peacocks who put them both at the bottom of the pecking order. The Birds (young white peacock and his adopted chicken sibling) in the chicken fortress next to the house are calm and toddler tolerant.
 
just got the repair quote for my car, good thing hubby took the call otherwise I may have feinted. $2700 to get my car back on the road, not happy but my car is essential to get to Uni and to be able to get my business plan into action.

I am going to start offering mobile strength and fitness training and possibly small group strongman style classes. My car is a large wagon which can fit a good amount of fitness gear in it, and if the trailer is attached I can transport a large tyre.

Pretty much the entire A/C system in the car, when one bit went it blew out a heap of other parts, the quote is with using after market parts, if genuine parts were needed it would be a new car instead of a repair.

I also need $300 worth of text books for next semester, 2 biomechanics and one physiology.

needless to say money is a little tight for a while.
 
Mentally I am feeling a little better

Car is back on the road, text books have been ordered, bit of a problem with ordering one, it was apparently in stock when I ordered it and after paying I got an email saying they did not have it in stock and could not get it Grrrr. ordered from a different supplier and need to wait on a refund from the original. The expensive physiology text and companion atlas is also out of stock from that supplier but I trust it will arrive in the 4 weeks thay say it will as I have had no problems in the past and they only sell university txt books.

2 X 10 kg sandbags added to my equipment for mobile coaching, very versatile for a range of training outcomes and exercises but will also need to get a couple of heavier ones.
 
Just got an email to say there was a covid case at Uni today, good thing it is during the mid year break.

Food today - left over roast pork with home made apple sauce for lunch, Chilli beef is on the stove cooking for tonight.

tomorrow will be a trip to Bunnings for garden/retaining wall supplies now I have my car back and can tow the trailer to put the concrete blocks and timber sleepers in.


Next week my shopping list is a few Kg of raw honey to do some brewing.
 
Got is a solid training session this morning, the Pneumonia has seriously affected my strength so a lot of rebuilding to do

It is still raining, it has been raining for almost a week, too much mud to work in the garden today, however my tomato plants have gone berserk and my chilli plants have a masses of flowers, not bad for the middle of winter. My pidgeon peas are covered in heaps of yellow flowers and are thriving in the swale garden bed. Comfrey has died back till spring and I need to plant out some more seeds which have been in the fridge so they are ready to sprout when I plant them. Wormwood is also looking healthy with finally getting soaking rain without the scorching temps.
