Day 225

Oh what a day!

The sun was out and another grand day. Tim got the chairs out in the garden.

Yesterday my foot was really swollen and my back was dreadful! i couldn't believe that i was going to go back again. I was due to run again Saturday afternoon. It was so hot but off i went and managed my 8 lampposts, just! I just thought that if i didn't go it would be so easy not to go another day and so on and before i would know it i wasn't on target for the marathon.

Tim knew i was trying and he even took me out for a ride to take some pictures, i got a lovely picture of a cormorant in one of the fenland ditches. i will try to put that on tomorrow!
Today i have spent with ice packs on my ankle and its still swollen!

I have also taken the bull by the horns and joined weight watchers on line! I made Tim take some pictures of me so i can tell the difference. I'm sure losing some weight will help with all my aches and pains!!

I counted my points tonight and was horrified! so we start in earnest tomorrow!

This time last year Mikey had a collapsed lung and was feeling really low, i have been reading my notes from last year and April was bad for him. I know that the first few months of the year had been bad and i guess they just continued in a downward spiral.

It will be 8 months on the 12th since we lost him and there is not a day goes past that he isn't in our thoughts. Our loss is felt as keenly now as then, we have just got better in disguising it when talking to other people.

We also paid for our holiday yesterday and now that final! June will soon be upon us.

Tom goes on his holiday next week and Tim is going up to do some gardening for him. That will help take his mind off things for a while. Mikeys birthday is fast approaching and that's going to be so hard for us.
The weather now reminds me of the time just before Mikey was born, it was so hot! unlike Tom who was born in November.

I'm going to put a couple of pictures on now of our day at London
