Day 684-689

So its been almost a week!

To be honest so much has happened this week its been a problem getting up the motivation to sit here. Tims in bed and Dukes asleep, notw there is a surprise.

Monday i was on the phone a huge part of the day when i wasnt sitting outside in the sunshine!! I have reflected so much this week on what has happened recently that i have just run myself round in a circle.
On a positive side, hospital visit  on Tuesady went well. I have to have MRI scan on the knee on the 14th July and see the consultant 2 weeks after. Appointments already made!! He said i could run if i wanted but only short distances and on soft ground, if i run on tarmac to make it short as possible. So i felt like a racehorse on Tuesday night, the going was soft so off i went. Did a reasonable 5 miles and the time was ok considering, Thursadys run was a bit bit shameful but hey ho saving myself for Sundays run. The annual Spud run.

Booked in for a race on Wednesday evening only a small 5k but its in a leauge and if i run 3 i get a t shirt!!
Booked a half Marathon in October, The great eastern run so i hope im fit by then, best get training!!! something to focus on.

I have been really lazy the last 3 weeks and just didnt realise how tired i was. I think i look better too! although the diet has gone west!! Best get back on the old weight watchers again.

Another hospital appointment today, check up from the skin problem i had and got the all clear!! but to return anytime if there is a concern. That was positive!

I now have numb fingers in my left hand! im cracking up, i think its from the fracture but not sure i suppose i will have to go to the Drs, its so annoying my little finger has forgotten it belongs to my hand and just doesnt do as its told! either the that or the brain isnt getting messages to it, now there is a thought!

At last got to shampoo Mikeys carpet. How strange its taken me so long to do it. I wonder if i am only now beginning to grieve, i just havent had the time before now. Maybe i should use this time i have off to consider that. Maybe Tim and i need to get away for a bit, we will see.

Spend some time at the coast next week if the weather is kind and blow away a few cobwebs.

I have raised over £1700 from my Marathon and hope to meet the target, Tims assured me i will as he hasnt given his donation yet!!! Fingers crossed.

I continue to feel very isolated and yet i have had support from the most unlikely places and it has been very welcome, i still cant discuss why i am where i am today, my turn will come i am sure. I keep remembering the proverb, people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones!

Its a year tomorrow since we collected Duke! he still acts like a pup!!

Well i better get to bed i suppose, i have another book to read! I dont know what the future has in store for me i will just take it a day at a time, i wont worry because, tomorrow is another day..................
