The start of a new week and back to the grind.. at least we can do it in our pyjamas. Jack joined us for a morning yoga session (Not ran by Reiki master Megan this time, we left it to the professionals). It was 100% needed, both for the stretch and to get ourselves in a better headspace for the…
Another uneventful but still pretty wholesome day was had yesterday. We are trying our best to still seperate weekend from weekday in order to retain a bit of structure and sanity. We peaked in the morning by attempting a 30-minute cardio workout. Cardio is not a word that brings me much joy (does it anyone??). We were following three women;…
Some self-isolation (from each other) was required today, meaning our Saturday was pretty chill and uneventful. I decided to treat myself to a lie-in (I know, shock horror) so sat out on the morning workout. Mum and Amy did a routine that focused on form and stretching aka much less intense than the ones they make me do! (But more…
Our second isolation birthday. We didn’t have the luxury of being able to go for a stroll round a park this time.. oh how we took that for granted. The day started with yoga (on my request), I’m surprised by my motivation to keep wanting to exercise in the morning but it is definitely a good way to get into…
As much as I am trying to focus on the little gems found in quarantine, I don’t want to brush over the fact that this is an overwhelming and confusing time for everyone. Emotions were running quite high yesterday morning, not for any particular reason but I think it comes with the nature of the current situation. I had some…
She’s made it to a week *pulls one sad party popper* Jack’s first full day in the isolation household, he is still talking to me so we’re doing alright. He decided to leave us gals to our morning workout while he went on a jog in the sunshine. We did a dance workout, designed for mother’s and daughter’s which went…
First day of lock down and we took on a new lodger. Before anyone reports us to the government.. let me explain. Jack is currently living in shared accommodation with 3 other house mates, one of which has been deemed vulnerable and asked not to leave the house for 12 weeks – obviously not the ideal situation in a shared…
A reasonably tame Monday in the Raynor household, not all days can be as decedent as yesterday. The workouts are starting to take their toll, means we are doing it right? RIGHT? So we settled on a gentle stretch/yoga this morning to ease those aching bones, it was lovely with the sun streaming in through the windows. Think the universe…
It’s been the week of celebrating mum (good job she’s a cracker) Mum opened her cards and presents first thing this morning. I will insert a picture of Amy’s card because it had us crying with laughter in the shop, it’s perfect on so many levels. We bought mum a handmade ceramic yarn bowl – we didn’t know these existed…
Day 3 in the Isolation house… I am as surprised as you that I am managing to stick to the blogs, as well as the daily home workouts. Today was a dance workout. Dancing is not something that comes naturally to the Raynor’s but we giggled through the grapevines and managed not to knock any teeth out while flailing our…
