Meeting, garden centre and hair!

This morning it was the Living Well meeting and today we were doing chair aerobics, concentrating on mobility. Quite a good workout for the whole body, including hands, with lots of explanation of what the different exercises helped with. Talked to Mandy, the instructor and she suggested I try heat and cold or just one for my hands, so will give it a go. The exercise session was well over an hour so I was quite late getting away by the time I had washed up and help pack the chairs.

Had lunch with Tina who is on leave and then we went to Cherry Lane garden centre. We got some food treats and bird treats and of course some plants! Took photos of some hydrangeas and dahlias.

There were lots of butterflies on the plants, it was delightful.

We did buy one of these scabious plants.

When we were home I went to try and make a hair appointment, they said to come back in an hour or so. Took this beautiful gladioli in the front garden.

I went back and had a two handed hair cut again, but I am quite used to that now. They are a really great couple! I have always paid cash before but knew they did take card payments - usually, today the machine wasn’t working so had to have an extra walk to get cash out! It has been hot and sticky again today and my knee has been a bit sore. Anyway, a good haircut so worth it.

This evening I went out to do a bit of clearing in the garden near the summer house and Tina came out to join me. The stepping stones and the area around them was very overgrown and in the bed there were a lot of weeds appearing. I didn’t take a before photo but did take one when we had finished for tonight as it looks a lot tidier.
