Walking in the Sunshine


The weather was appalling yesterday, and that resulted in a great deal of pain. I set myself all sorts of goals, and forget I have chronic pain. At the start of July last year, I decided to keep track of the number of days I have had without pain. so far, we're cruising  along at a nice steady zero. There has not been a single day I have been pain-free.

March's goal of exercising every day seemed a distant dream. However, The Offspring drew my attention to my time in town shopping yesterday. I managed to walk 1/2km, at a very slow pace, but I managed it. Today, I've also walked a much faster 1/2km. 

Now, the sun is out. The air pressure is looking good for tomorrow. My hope is I can do a full, huge 1km.

Goals for March 2026


This month's goals are to exercise every day (when possible) and to make two items for my wardrobe.

The exercise consisted of half a km of very painful and slow walking. There are times when the body just does not want to co-operate.

My current wardrobe make is a cardigan/jacket made from King Cole Tints, in the colour 'Neptune'. It's a glorious combinations of teal and purple, and will be able to be worn with so many items in my wardrobe. There are some summer clothes it will clash with, but it's a thick super chunky yarn, and it isn't a summer yarn.
