Getting some exercise

This morning I cut a hedge! Just a baby one. My whole body is buzzing and it feels good. I don't expect that will last but it really used little more energy than pushing the walker 200 yds. Sometimes I just have to break out and do something I want to do and accept the consequences.

Making very slow progress, not helped by my OH being irritable and snippy with me because he would rather be sailing. I understand how he feels but walking on eggshells is not the activity I need.

Gentle hugs everyone xx

Hi my friend

I'm sorry but I did have a little chuckle about your idea of walking on eggshells being an activity ☺

I completely understand the feeling of wanting to break free though.

Wishing you much peace

Lu xx

Hi.

"Yes Yes Yes" every bit we do now a days is like climbing a mountain.

Here I am doing the front garden, I'm "melting" away though.

I have to break tasks down & have a break in between.

I know that I will pay "big time" for it tomorrow.

But hopefully looking at the "garden" will counteract that.

Hi.

"Opps" I spoke to soon we have got your weather now.

Yes the summer has been Rubbish as usual.

We haven't had a good summer for "ages & ages"

Hi my friend

I simply love my garden and gardening and I know exactly where you are coming from. I was planting some autumn / winter bedding plants the other day and when I had finished I needed my tri-walker to help me get up off the ground. I could hardly walk when I set off back toward the house. Luckily there were people to help me along my journey, as it felt like a marathon walking just a few yards!

I want to sincerely wish you all the best of luck and please take care of yourself.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken
