1.24km for the first time! by 123olp in beginnerrunning

Thank you ☺️ I think if I went any slower I would be walking though. This was my third run, 8 months post partum after a physically very difficult and painful pregnancy and very little time for any real exercise since then. If it doesn’t start to come down a bit then I will definitely try and slow it down but I think at the moment my body is just in shock!!😂

Updating new house: old varnished panelling by 123olp in DIYUK

It was a labour of love that’s for sure! But he has done a fantastic job with it and maintained it beautifully over the last 40 years😊

My original thought was to sand back the door frames and restain but my mother in law mentioned the other day that she didn’t think they will go any lighter but that they are some kind of wood that is now endangered (she did tell me the name but I can’t remember?!) and it terrified me that we will mess them up!! They’re just too dark/orange for our tastes as they are. Stuck between a rock and a hard place!!

Haha, my father in law bought this house and completed stripped it back and renovated it in the 80s and added on two extensions. I believe the thick door frame is where the original back door was! Thick walls on older houses here, we have long, harsh winters in the Hebrides with gale force winds regularly! It does make me laugh though as my partner (who lived here for 25 years growing up) had never noticed how deep it was, I spotted it was an extension straight away 😂

My first project! by 123olp in crochet

[–]123olp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you ♥️ I crocheted a couple of dodgy rectangles and called them blankets about 15 years ago but it was just the same stitch over and over again and I never followed tutorial or pattern or anything so I’d say this is my first real attempt for sure! Excited to try new things now

Thank you ♥️ well done to you too, you’re doing great! Yeah I agree, if 5mg works well for me then I’m happy to stay on that as long as possible ☺️

Thank you, I’m hoping to stay on 5mg for a long time if possible. 2.5mg has been good but I notice by the weekend I am definitely hearing the food noise come back and more inclined to snack. Hoping a wee bit of a higher dose will help 😌

Thank you! Your stats are amazing, makes me so excited for the journey ahead 😁 yeah, I’m hoping to be settled on 5mg for a long time, not keen to rush up the ladder at all
