Hooray! I finally made it out of the house and did a walk around our village! There are a number of connecting roads that make a really good circuit; last year I was able to run it. This year, it was a slow stroll with the Houdini Hound.
Inspired by Lesley's photos, I remembered what a tonic a walk in the countryside can be. And Dietgirl's determination, I remembered that progress doesn't have to start with a marathon. The important thing is to get moving.
So that's my next tip for when food is not the answer - a walk! With a camera. Here's where I went this afternoon.
A bit muddy...
Soooo cute!
Coming back into the village...
and one last shot...
Hi Mrs. It makes a big difference to get out and about I think and in such lovely surroundings. Still very sorry to hear about the pets - I told D and he's been saying, every now and then - "what are we going to do when Shelagh gets old and past it??" in a plaintive tone so it's obviously been on his mind too!
I just say, try and enjoy all the good times and do your best through the bad.
Hope you can start putting the bad times behind you (and 2008 in general)! Keep blogging, it seems to help you judging from the tones of your recent posts and chin up chuck.
Big kiss
Lesley xx
