10 minutes and another letter ๐Ÿ˜

I'm tired today and I have grandsons coming to visit for lunch so no real exploring just a short walk so I can tick off another day.The sky is a beautiful blue and I was pondering whether to have that as my letter when I rounded the corner and there it was ๐Ÿ˜ the monkey puzzle tree , perfect.

Enjoy your walks, even when tired a short walk is beneficial, and I was lucky enough to have sunshine.

Strava tells me this was lighter than my 30 day average ๐Ÿคฃ never mind I've done housework and washings on the line.....the big thing for me is it was my 5th day of going for a walk๐Ÿ˜ and I came back with a deep purple budliea cutting ๐Ÿ˜ฒ the ones I have are pale so it'll be a nice contrast. I've found a honeysuckle too which I might be able to get a cutting from.

Tomorrow I'll be hooked up to an IV line for 5 hours and may come home sleepy so not sure a walk will happen, don't fancy trundling round the hospital corridors with my tripod with bags of fluid hanging off it .....although ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ maybe ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿ We will be thinking of you tomorrow. Hopefully unlike my last visit you get a tripod with wheels. Mine only had one & had to be propped up ๐Ÿคฃ

Well done on getting a walk in, in spite of the tiredness! Love the Monkey Puzzle tree. Fascinating arenโ€™t they? Xx

My last one had wheels, with all that fluid going in I need to be able to wheel it to the loo. I've always been fascinated by monkey puzzle trees, I'd love one in my garden but they are expensive even for a little one. But I've found out where I keep getting lost on the way home, it's left at the monkey puzzle not right ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ xx

Thanks, tomorrow will be fine, and it's calming my immune system so it's not attacking me so much

How lovely to have your grandsons visit! ๐ŸฅฐDespite your tiredness, it sounds like a good day with a productive short walk in the sun too! Canโ€™t beat some free plants!

Good luck tomorrow ๐Ÿ’•

oh dear! That sounds like another tough day ahead. But you are made of tougher stuff, you runner, you!

Is that a monkey puzzle tree? They look so weird.

Keep us close tomorrow and any walks (in corridors or hospital gardens), let us know!

Sounds like another busy day Sue and what a lovely place to walk (or run eventually!). I hope it all goes well for you tomorrow.
