Well that was an interesting afternoon. We went as a family for fish and chips in the park, then took a drive to some of the parks in neighbouring suburbs that have outdoor gyms and tried them out. Went to about 4 different spots; some had great equipment and some not, but I ended up cobbling together a fairly good workout and the kids got into it as well. It’s not sustainable for me though, because these places are not convenient for me to get to. If the park near my house had an upgrade it could include equipment like that. But my exercise program for today was sorted anyway!

That’s pretty cool! Just having a glance through Tom’s guide’s exercise section and there’s a lot there, it’s a pretty good resource, so thanks for that!

Yesterday was a day of vacuuming and laundry and today I’d like to do nothing, but I don’t think that’s gonna happen. Last night I decided it’s time to get back on my fitness journey/bandwagon/whatever it is. I lost a lot of weight and got fitter, but now it’s all back to how it was and I need to address it. Back to daily at home exercise and workouts. I wish my local park had those free exercise machines that other parks have, I love some of those! Hard to find an app which has good exercises for older people who don’t want to trash their joints or pay an ungodly amount for a monthly subscription. I’ve uninstalled a couple already because they’re too pushy for money, want to send too many notifications or have too many ads. The app I used last time has really gone downhill in this regard. So I’m still looking.

I guess I should be sleeping 😆I drifted off earlier but I’m just lazing around now enjoying the quiet. We’ll, except for the sound of thunderstorms or blizzards or whatever Elder Minipeeler has going on in there that he’s sleeping to.

I saw a treadmill for a good price this morning and there was much 🤔🤔🤔but then I thought, “Go for a real walk! Get fit and save money!” I’ll probably do neither 😆

Ouch, that really struck a loud chord 🫂

It’s similar with me but not with luggage, the hill I fought everyone on was about food. When I book a holiday I expect to eat out for pretty much every single meal, I anticipate and expect to be spending extra money on it and I budget for that extra in the holiday. When I holiday I am really looking to go exploring and experience food in a different place lol. Otherwise I get stuck in these self catering nightmares where it’s just relocating home base and cooking dinner and lunches the whole time and that’s no damn holiday for me. I’m dead clear on it when discussing the holiday initially, but there’s always been a blow up because someone wants a “home cooked meal” and I’m like “well go home then.” When I was younger and used to go camping, that’s different. Now I’m older I want my little luxuries damn it!

Saint Cinnamon 🤔 It didn’t ring a bell, but if all they sold was heaps of different flavoured scrolls (I remember loving the butterscotch ones, and there was some kind of cheesecake flavoured one 🤤) that were freshly baked and they had a location at Melbourne Central then that’d be it. God I loved those scrolls!

Had a big (for me) adventure today. Took the Minipeelers to Melbourne Central and had a wander around and look at things. Went into the Emporium part and had lunch at the Schnitz (kids choice) upstairs. I liked the upstairs part, it was cleaner and quieter than the other food courts in the main part.
At some point Elder asked if we could visit the museum and I thought, ok, why not? So we went there and Miniest let it drop that Elder was really keen to see the Lego Star Wars exhibition, so we saw that. It’s pretty cool, lots of displays and a couple of good interactive displays. One of them you make your own fighter space ship thing and put it in a machine which scans it and then projects it flying through space on a big screen. Another one, you make your own lightsaber, attach a receiver to it and stand in front of a screen which shows it glowing, and you can download the picture. There was also a part where you do a bit of Lego and it goes towards a big mural. Warning to anyone who takes kids: you have to leave via a pop-up star wars retail space (I saw a few tantrums!). The theme cafe was ok (could’ve done better with star wars themed food ideas) but I was hanging for a coffee by that point and any port in a storm I reckon!
Then we walked back to Melb Central and got Cinnabon to take home. Wish I could remember the name of the scroll place that used to be at Melbourne Central about 20+ years ago, it was the same kind of thing but heaps more types of scrolls and was really popular. Does anyone here remember?

There is, dang it I could’ve wandered in for a look last week. I hit the wall after a few hours there and just herded the kids out as quickly as was practicable lol.

I always wondered about luggage weight limits… I mean, they don’t apply them to people do they? The difference in weight between Mr P and myself is one of our children 😆

Got today and tomorrow off work to spend with Minipeelers. Also I have a parcel to collect 😃I think my balaclava/hood things have arrived (I love those things; I wear them in scarf/snood mode during the day to keep my neck warm and make my apron sit correctly, and pull up the hood if it’s extra cold or raining. It’s been a winter game changer for me). What to do? I know they want to go to Melbourne Central and an art supply shop. Art supply shops are expensive tho, and I usually wing it with $2 shops where I can get small canvasses and acrylic paints for a fraction of the price.
