turpsHot winter spice Ribena is delicious stuff. I'm always thrilled when I see it back in the shops, and I may have had three mugs already today.
All much needed though, as it's so cold and last night and this morning snow came down big time, and was lying, too. I looked like some kind of yeti by the time I'd walked to class this morning, and my feet were soaked, as my trainers were no match for the snow. I was the only person at class for ages, and Rosie was on the verge of cancelling when another guy turned up. At that point we had a talk and decided as we'd both done the talk for today previously, we could skip that and just do the exercise section.
Then three other people turned up, all but one old timers, so we kept with the plan and just had the activity part of the session.
I was offered a lift home by one of the guys in class, but as I told him, I didn't mind getting some extra steps in walking home, plus, my big coat was soaked, and I didn't want to get his car wet. I'm glad I went though, I was considering not doing so, especially when my friend texted saying she wasn't coming, but in the end it was a good session, even if it was shorter than expected.
And ha, talking about my big coat. I posted on Insta stories this morning and Kayleigh has just seen the post, and messaged telling me off for going out without a winter coat. But I told her I was wearing my winter coat, but because it's a bit big now, it wasn't covering me to my neck. But getting told to put my coat on by my baby sister, it amused me.
Now, I'm going to have a lobster bath, I've been looking forward to it all day.

I haven't used this icon yet, but I shall in honor of your snowy day.

Kayleigh thought I'd gone out in the snow storm wearing just my hoodie, and really, I'm not that daft!
The perfect icon to use, especially as it's still snowing today.

Date: 2025-11-20 08:37 am (UTC)I have to admit, I was regretting my choices a little when I was trudging to the gym with soaking wet feet and the snow hurling itself into my face *g*

That's you told! No more walking about without a winter coat in snowstorms ;-P
I hope you had a very enjoyable bath!

Kayleigh was so annoyed, saying I'd freeze. Which maybe, if I wasn't actually wearing my winter coat! *g*
I did, I very much enjoyed it.
