Begin your writing here: Tane and his family had been eating unhealthy food for a long long time. One day Tane told his family to eat healthy and exercise. So they did that happily ever after is what I would have said if I was joking. What really happened was our friend Tane wasn’t a very convincing guy. His family weren’t very, how do I say this happy about this idea but they did know they needed the exercise. They then agreed but they said “ The gyms close because of the covid pandemic”. “ So we got the equipment so we can still do it” and they agreed again. Tane was pleased to hear this and went to the garage to set up the equipment. Once he was done everyone came out to see the “ Home Gym “. They exercised all day long until it was dinner time. The tanes Parents were so busy they forgot to prepare dinner. But Tane knew what to do. He made a salad with lettuce, eggs, tomatoes, ava\cado and capsicum and plenty more salady things. But of course they didn’t just have salad they also had steak for some protein. They ate it and they went to bed. The next morning they got straight working out and they lived happily ever after this is the true end> |
Hi Leonidas
ReplyDeleteThis is a really neat story about Tane and his family. I'm glad that his family agreed to exercise with him. So what are your family doing to keep healthy during lockdown? I also like the salad that they had for dinner. Good thinking. Keep up the great work Leonidas.
