Good morning, I have not been having a good time of things recently, but finally I think I am coming out of it. I hope so because I have lots of things lined up to do. Right now I should be doing the ironing, but I am checking out peoples journals instead.
Today I am going to try going back to Aikido, tonight is the beginners/basic class, so hopefully I can get my confidence back before Thursday's class. If all goes well there, I am going to go back up the hill tomorrow. I will put my running gear on, but the aim is just to walk. Last Wednesday I had to sit on the kerb and rest after just walking to the beach, so I dont want to do too much and blow my recovery. And then, my son, Michael, and I are going to Hanmer Springs for a long weekend, returning Monday. Normally I would climb Mt Isobel whilst I am there, but this time maybe just the waterfalls walk. And the hot pools of course. We will see how it goes.
I have put a beach photo for you, it was an interesting morning, normally we get all sorts of bright colours at sunrise but today it was steel grey. Beautiful in a different way.
Food, we have been living on soups and very simple meals whilst I have been ill, and there is a rebellion in the camp! So I will make an effort tonight. Maybe Mac-n-Cheese. Cashew cheese sauce, hight calorie density but I think we all deserve a treat, and this is a big family favourite. I will do at least 2 veg as well, so I can bring the calorie density down that way.
