Despite a rainy start to our day, we ended it under sunny blue skies and slightly warmer temps. A soggy morning drive to Goderich and back for Pheebs and I netted a few groceries and yet another prescription refill. Pills, pills, pills, how did it ever get to this!!!! Aside from a walk down one of our Park's newer rut pitted mud roads this afternoon there wasn't much going on today.

Sorry about your former nice park and forest!
ReplyDeleteYes, hard to see the trees coming down. And things changing in a not good direction. I have no words for the loss of your good friend other than I am so sorry. I hate that when it happens. But spring appear to be springing, and there Pheebs is, and here we are! So onward!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you have such great groaners especially the last one. The sight of the forest destruction and the reminder that our later lives are full of pills both made me sad. But true whether I like it or not.
ReplyDeleteThey're building a house next to me. I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteIt took one day to bulldoze that 1/4 acre, we all cried, the birds made not one sound that day. 💙💛
And I bet that I take lots more pills than you!
ReplyDeleteBest thing you can do for leg atrophy is Stretching. And it's relaxing, too. We have been using this dvd for decades...heals back and neck pain, too. Always recommend it to others...no one seems to want to take the time to dig in and do it, but here it is again: https://stretchingplus.com/malaises-et-temoignages/qui-est-jacques-gauthier/les-etats-unis/article-de-presse-etats-unis/canadian-walks-his-stretching-message-around-the-continent-in-year-long-journey/
ReplyDeleteThe dvd is out-of-print, but you can try Amazon and eBay: Jacques Gauthier Stretching DVD. Or you can watch it here (in French...they are French Canadians; the DVD gives both language options) and just do what they do and deep breath while stretching, which is what they mostly say.

If either of you have a serious interest in this, please drop me a note and I will drop a copy of the dvd in the mail to you.
