Sometimes we need just a bit of encouragement to do something good for ourselves. When the doctor quite casually said to me the other day my health would improve if I did a bit of walking, I took this really to heart. I saw him some ten days ago and have been walking for about half an hour nearly every day since then. Last Saturday I didn’t walk because of some tremendous pain in my mouth. I did get some antibiotics prescribed for the infection in the mouth. So on Sunday (Palm Sunday) it had been much better already.
Just arrived back from my early morning walk. Peter came along with me. I appreciate this so much when he does this. Peter will be going for his little run towards the evening when it’s a bit cooler. Peter is happy to run every second day. Sometimes his knee plays up. Then he has to miss out on a run.
After my walk I’ve again been sweating a lot. Tried to get rid of most of the sweat with a towel (the way the tennis players do!). I think my body is more or less back to normal now. So I’ll soon take a shower and get ready to go out for some shopping.
Day after tomorrow (Saturday at ten o’clock) we have to be at another funeral. One of our neighbours, a dear old man age 86, died on Tuesday.
I hope I can make it to the Stations of the Cross tomorrow, Good Friday.

sweet uta i am so glad you are getting to walk. i have been slacking off on that for months now because when i do a lot of tutoring, i get physically lazy. so knowing you are walking will inspire me to get moving again. Happy Holy Thursday, and have a Good Good Friday…Easter is getting close….and the world awaits. i wish you love, kate
Thank you for your beautiful response, dear Kate. Wishing you all the blessings of Easter! And try to fit in a bit of walking. It’ll make you feel good, for sure.
I think walking is one of the healthiest exercises we can do. Both my Dad and I try to walk at least twice a day.
Wonderful that you were able to get out for a walk! (And I’m so sorry to hear you will have to attend another funeral…it’s never easy. Thoughts are with you.)
I think walking’s great, although I can’t imagine needing a sweat towel, myself. Wow! Way to go 🙂
You’d be pretty healthy, I’d reckon. Sincere best to you.
Thanks, Noeleen. 🙂
Keep it up and if I can, I join you.
That’s great! Thank you, Berlioz.
