#2: St Augustine's Abbey 16 months ago

We explored the ruins of St Augustine’s Abbey, another English heritage property, on a recent trip to Canterbury. Ironically, I didn’t have my EH membership card on me, but since we have joint membership, I was let in on my husband’s one.

achieve my weekly fitness goals

Starting small 18 months ago

Okay, so it’s the start of the year so I’m going to ease myself into this.

Goals for this week:

Join a gym and go at least one other time.

I actually made it to my new gym twice this week – on Wednesday for an induction, and on Friday for a normal session (weights and cardio).

Walk from Bank station to work and back at least four times.

Did this three days out of the five, and on the other two days I took alternative routes that included just as much walking.

Use the stairs rather than the lifts.

Did this every day at work.

read and pass on fifty books from bookcrossers in 2007 (read all 10 entries…)

#17-20 19 months ago

At last night’s Bookcrossing meetup, I passed on Wicked, A Short History of Nearly Everything, Life of Pi and Growing Up Twice. That takes my total up to 20, but I doubt I’m going to meet this goal.
