Go the extra mile – it’s never crowded!
Wake up it’s a BeYOUtiful morning, and hopefully it’s going
to be another BeYOUtiful day, the universe was kind to us yesterday at the
carnival, we managed to escape the rain for the majority of the day and for
that I am grateful! Getting some rain every day also means I’m not
having to water my hanging baskets which a huge bonus as that’s so
time-consuming!
Well its official I’m super full of hot air, I blew balloons
up for almost 5 hours yesterday and I’m amused to report that the muscles in my
neck are actually tight this morning like I’ve had a workout, maybe that’s the
secret to stopping me getting a baggy neck, balloon exercises!
Anyway enough of that, I have to tell you we had a fantastic
day at the carnival yesterday, here are the photos to prove it.

I haven’t been to a carnival for years and I was really
impressed with how busy it was! As I
walked towards the park I had a lovely encounter with a member and her son, I
said hello to her and her son asked, “mom do you know that lady?”, she replied “yeah
she’s my leader” and bless him he shouted to me, “Hello M’Leader”, proper made
me smile, and I thought it had a nice ring to it, bit like, m’lady made me
smile anyway, because they he followed it up with, “why are you going to the
carnival if you ain’t got not kids” I love how kids minds work and they’re constantly
asking questions.
I was joined throughout the day by my members which was
lovely, no better advertisement that a successful member and I have so many as
do all our leaders, it was also great to spend time with other leaders because
it can be a solitary job.
Today I’m doing not a lot of anything, I’ve got to have put
in 50 hours or more this week easily so I’m hoping for sunshine and will read
my book up the garden I think, might potter a bit, might not, I will just do
whatever takes my fancy today, no plans, no having to be anywhere, no answering
the phone, I may even turn it off. Mom
and me are going to enjoy some us time!
I’ve just done a little Weight Watcher work, but I shall be turning the
pc off soon and enjoying a day of rest.
Not only did my member AnnMarie help out on our stand
yesterday for almost 5 hours she also kept me on track, I suggested treating
her to her tea and she reminded me we were on Filling & Healthy so it would
have to be a steak or gammon with jacket and I have to say, The Spread Eagle,
Broad Lane South, Willenhall do a cracking Sirloin, so glad when we turned up
at the Broadway they said it was a 25 minute wait so we didn’t stay because
their steak is not that good!
Started my day well with scrambled eggs on toast that’ll
keep me going right till this afternoon easily and I’ll have a think about what
to have for tea later, haven’t really had time to think about food this last
few days been so busy.
Enjoy your day, whatever your plans and focus on the Healthy
& Happy!
