In an attempt to get fit, (my blood pressure is borderline) and lose weight, I got myself a Wii Fit.  First I created a little Mii who looks just like me.  I got weighed (obese) and did the BMI 35 yuk. I was then told that if you have a BMI of 22 you are less likely to get ill.  Well for a start I am never ill.

However, I did some balance and stamina tests and was given a fitness age of 34.  Not bad for an overweight 48 year old is it. 

The games themselves are great fun and in the first 2 days I clocked up 1.5 hours of exercise in one form or another.  I found out my balance was perfect being exactly in the centre and was proclaimed a Yoga Master because of my excellent balance.  (Even though I have never done Yoga in my life).  I think the reason my balance is so good is because I ride a motorbike most of the time.   Well I call it a motorbike but it is actually a very large scooter.  I take my other half out on it some days.  He is braver than me as I would hate to be sat on the back.

Anyway hols looming and I have already lost 1lb towards my target weight.  Do you think I can get thin in the next 2 days?  No me neither.

Hi again,  I am going on holiday on Wednesday.  Sailing to Rotterdam and driving round Europe.  No plans, just two weeks doing whatever comes to mind, or not as the case may be.  All you need is a campervan and a tom tom. 

Last year in 10 days we, my husband and I, visited 7 different countries and enjoyed glorious weather and views whilst England suffered floods. 

This year I don't want to drive so much so I may not get as far.  We have a bicycle each so we intend to settle somewhere nice and cycle round.  

I only have to work Tuesday and thats it. I'll put some photo's on when I take some.

My neighbours to look after her cats whilst she was away.

Hi everyone,  this is my very first blog site.  I am passionate about all types of crafting and painting.  If you are too then you will find some projects shortly to interest you.

As a demonstrator for Fiskars most of the projects will be Fiskars based, and for all levels of experience.  WELCOME to those of you who have popped in for a look and I hope you linger a little longer.

Regards from Heather.
