Hello people...later today for me!
Clocking in again after a full strength and stamina day with small runner in training yesterday.
Learning and play, and lots of outside adventures...How many unicorns did you save yesterday!!! We saved two! I was pretty exhausted come bed time!
Today.... up early, in order to get Mr OF moving and get us to a hospital appointment.. CT scan..by 10.30 !
Woke at 6! But took our time to wake gently and when Mr OF went down to get cups of tea.. I used YWA to get me properly awake...
A gentle body scan too and the usual routines.
* The teeth cleaning squats are increasing and spurred on by Gthants and mentions of calf raises etc... I added in a few just for luck with some ankle twists too!
* Some lovely big stretches to wake everything up, but not time for my 5 rites today!
Little back-pack packed with all the gubbins, water, snacks for Mr OF, in case we had to wait... and, after breakfast, out by 9.30, in order to negotiate the expected heavy, traffic and find a parking place at the hospital !
We sailed there!!! No hold ups and, wonder of wonders... three parking places to choose from in a car park where spaces never appear!
* A longish walk down to the Imaging department but, the sun was shining, Mr OF was feeling a lot happier than last evening... ( worrying about the scan)!
We walked down through the grassy- lined paths past the HUGE market stall outside the main entrance... so much fruit, down past the maternity home and in and out the many through ways to the building we wanted.. Then.. the corridors... long and all looking alike. Smiling faces, helpful folk and eventually, a waiting room which we were only in for a very short time! Called through, five minutes early, by a lovely lady with the most amazing array of tattoos on her arms ! J was quite taken and she , encouraging him, to go for it!!!
He was in the CT suite, five minutes … and then done and dusted... ! Back along a different set of corridors and out into the sunshine...we passed many folk but, ambling our way back up the slight inclines and loads of little steps back to the car, we might have been the only two folk in the world!
Headed home and amazingly , we had when I checked, covered just under a mile with our walking !
A successful excursion and a surprisingly pleasant walk in the bargain...Sometimes the exercises find us !
* Some gentle, meditative yoga this afternoon and I shall wind down with a body scan and some box breathing before sleep.
A day in the car tomorrow so, I shall need to get all my exercises in before I leave...and then.... I am looking forward to some walks, with Mr OF by the sea and along some flattish trails and.... maybe, just maybe, a slightly longer walk alone...just to test things out !
Sleep well or rest easy, everyone...
See you tomorrow...
