I Prayed for Rain!!!

Hello Friends!

I won't pretend otherwise, I am so tired today that I prayed for rain and wind so an enforced day of rest would be on the books!  Two days of such short distances and I cannot believe my energy is zapped! It was a real struggle today, I tell you. But I pushed and I did it.  Not only did I did it, I did it in style by nearly doubling my distance!  

I did go a bit later today, the weather is not pretty, and I had to try to give it my best guess as to what time would be best to avoid the heavy rain {if it comes}.  It is misty and murky, and today's photo of Carn Llidi shows the hill has gone!  It is cold and humid, everything is sort of clammy, and it did rain a little but nothing to worry about, and I have a new, red raincoat.

Above is a picture of Ffordd Aaron, or Foster's Way.  It is a footpath down to the coast that takes you across meadows and buttercup, cow filled fields by the coast.  It was a favourite path I enjoyed to travel, but it is too uneven underfoot for me these days.

I really had to push myself, but thanks to my friend Charley I got underway and off we went, along the Bridle Path, up to the road, then across to the National Trust where I hit on my old work colleagues for support, and then back home for a much needed sit down and a cup of tea.  

My tremors are not responding well to this change of routine! They are getting very disruptive, an indication that the new routine requires more dopamine than my body can produce. I am surprised, though, that my shoulders are hurting far more than my legs and feet.  Why is this so, I wondered?  Then it hit me . . . I am pushing my rollator, which weighs in at around 15lbs!  No wonder my shoulders hurt so!!!

This caught my eye, I love to see interesting, gnarly pieces of wood.

Now, if anyone can shed light on the name of this, please share.  Google Lens came up with diddly squat on it.  It's smaller than, but closely resembles the flower of Herb Robert, although the leaf is very different.  It is all along the hedges, but looks cultivated not wild.



Well, I had lots more to say, but I am so tired I am going to try and get forty winks.  Thank you all for your support, and if any of the Anonymous donators are reading this, whoever you are, Thank You!

I wonder where I'll wander tomorrow?

Until then
