A good day today

[KiwiBob]

I have had a very good day today.

I was able to do a 3.5 mile walk this morning. Then go into my loft and finish sorting my loft installation.

Just back from a small river walk. This is the most relaxed I have been for a long time.

Going to take it easy now and watch the rugby with some gluten free beer and a home made curry from my freezer.

I can’t walk across the lounge, never mind 3.5 miles 😮 enjoy a beer and the rugby. Cheers 🍺🏉

Hello, I also have trouble trying to walk, push a trolly around the house, then if it’s not windy can just about walk around the block pushing a rollator.

Hope you have a good day. Bye.

I am not so good today. Back to moving slowly as if my body is trying to catch up to my brain.

[Plain in reply to KiwiBob]

Hope tomorrow will better for you, take it easy.

Bye for now

That's impressive, KiwiBob.

[KiwiBob in reply to M1tz1]

A day of rest today

[M1tz1 in reply to KiwiBob]

Take care. Hang in there. 🙂

[KiwiBob in reply to M1tz1]

I am having to do things slowly today. But I am still better than most days.

[M1tz1]

What part of New Zealand do you live in? You've just beaten us in Rugby! I'm a South African. My home is in Johannesburg.

[KiwiBob in reply to M1tz1]

I live in Scotland.

[M1tz1]

That's a surprise with a name like yours! Of course, the 'Bob' is Scottish. My grandfather was from Aberdeen.

[KiwiBob in reply to M1tz1]

My dad was from Glasgow. Which is how I ended up here.

[M1tz1]

Sorry to be a nuisance. Don't worry to reply. I was just intrigued. I presume you lived sometime in NZ.

[KiwiBob in reply to M1tz1]

I was born there and lived there for 12 years them moved to Australia then Scotland.

[M1tz1]

Bless you, KiwiBob, for your patience. I hope the day continues a bit better.

The did not watch the New Zealand v South Africa game.

It was not on here. Sky sports my of showed it, but I don’t have sky sports.

They did show the Wales v Australia game, and I did watch that one.

[M1tz1]

Since my move into a retirement home following my husband's death, I haven't had a TV. No room in my new little home, but I do get the scores. South Africa was badly hammered by the All Blacks, which is the usual case!

Dear KiwiBob, Cheers to you! ;o)

As I have learned, take the good days, when they come, and enjoy them and treasure that time. Like you, I have some slow days, when I move slowly, and couldn’t make myself go faster, if my life depended upon it. I guess it’s just the nature of living with Ataxia!

[KiwiBob in reply to ddmagee1]

I have had some good days lately. Trying to do as much walking as I can before I am back to being stuck in the house.

How do u walk without aids any tips

[KiwiBob in reply to foffee11]

Most of the time I use a walking stick and hold on to someone as and when needed.

But when I go though a good spell I only use the walking stick as and when needed.

[foffee11 in reply to KiwiBob]

Thanks

[KiwiBob]

Well, that’s my good period over. I enjoyed it while it lasted.
