Yeah yeah, I know it's the usual. I haven't been posting much. Various reasons, none of which I'm going to detail, mostly because while they're absolutely fascinating for me, I doubt they're of any interest to anyone else ;)
I'm back today, blogging again, because of a lovely post (thanks Janice!) on the Weight Watchers forums, which I've spent many happy hours toddling around in since May last year when I decided this was the last time I was going to have to ditch my unwanted kilos. I'd actually forgotten I even had my blog link in my signature. hehe!
The blog's due for a fat overhaul. I know that. I need a new me-pic (it's so old I've still got long hair in it LOL) and new colours etc etc. I find the lack of options in Typepad a little disappointing, but I'm excited to see that there's some new beta thing going on. I'm hoping it's not just for premium members - it'd be nice if we little peeps who only want to pay about $80 a year got some more exciting hoptions as well. I'm gonna wait and see. :)
I don't knit as much. This is mostly due to the nasty pains I get in my hands and arms. I'm doing a few things to help with this, including cutting back on mmorpg time (World of Warcraft, raider no more *snif*) and staggering my knitting and spinning time.
Also, running has become a big part of my life. This doesn't hurt my hands. Yay! And, as the expert injury and falling specialist science dude I spoke to a Speed Meet and Greet a Geek the other night told me, I won't ruin my knees and hips by running (contrary to popular opinion). Apparently the movement of cartilage over the joint releases magical helpful stuff (did he call it cenovin? something that sounded a bit like that) which protects it. He also said that the actual work of impacting on the ground, as long as you've got decent shoes and are aware of your gait, is beneficial in the building up of bone density, and prevention of osteo. Cool, huh? :)
So yeah. Hi again! :) More later, I'm sure. I'm not so great on consistency, so who knows how long this might last. Guess we'll just have to wait n see :):):)
