Happy New Year to you too aidie! I'm determined to make it a glorious one, full of outdoor adventure. It feels a year of 'Now or Never'!
Happy new year NicheMarket
I had a lie in past 10! And a quiet day, just absorbing the last week's thoughts, and doing a few very small chores. I'm plannng on 3 more quiet days before work on Monday just kinda taking stock of the recent past and where I'm going and what I'm gonna be doing in a Tier 4 lockdown for a few months. And cleaning the house slowly.
I also wrote MGG the start of a letter, something I've been putting off for a month. Just to get it out of my system!
And I'm gonna have a glass of wine to myself, not something I'd normally do, but it feels right tonight, and it is NY eve.
I'm on battery recharge today.
Gonna potter at home and get some tidying and organising done, and the dishes! And go to bed early hopefully.
I finished reading 'Exciting Times' last night. It's written by an autistic writer and two of the main characters are pretty autistic. It bizzarley came a bit close to home: the main female character was with a guy out of convenience, and he not to be lonely; she meets a woman and relies on her to do all the social initiation; for 6 months she keeps the two going; the woman gets fed up and the conversation goes wrong; 6 months of no talking; eventually she begins the path of coming out. I sent MGG a text suggesting a fell run in the snow.
Except aidie on the first day of school all the kids played war. I just watched confused and alone. I went home and asked my mother "don't they know what war is." I got cajoled by her to play, but got shot within a minute or two and spent the rest of lunchtime dead on the floor, well I'd been killed. That ended my school career of play. I'm not sure I'd have done better in the SAS;). But for a fat depressed kid I can't believe how athletic I became in my 30s and still am.
I'm resting for a few days now!
wow NicheMarket,,,,, remarkable stuff u could have been in the SAS
I had a good day! I set off at 8 and met a friend for a 5 hour walk up a mountain through the snow, then in a light snow storm, and then glorious sun. It was fab, and had a great chat too.
Had a great bath afterwards, a snooze, went to running club, and only had to reheat some food for dinner. I'm well ready for bed!
I've had two great hill walks in the snow this week; a 10 and 15k fell run each with a different mate; a 15k road run alone; a 16k mega hill road run with Mr NSI (new special interest); and running club. It's been good. I'm gonna take a few days quiet to process and catch up with myself.
A daily clove of garlic will help take pressure off your lungs if you do have it, or an aspirin. Both thin the blood and help with the thrombotic element of covid.
Oh my lordie aidie yes. Sat before christmas and i finally hit 'no more'.
Lucky the weather's been gorgeous so I've been out lots, but 3 months of Tier 4 lockdown that I'm expecting tomorrow is not good. I could just do with being able to make some exciting plans!
I learned I may have contracted Covid-19 for the second time. I am careful. My family tells me I am being too extreme, when I am just following proper precautional protocol and nothing more or less. Someone else came and hugged me which I could not avoid, and now it's my fault that I may have got it again some how. Extremely frustrated by that accusation. How could it be my fault when someone else initiated a hug with me after I was simply asked to deliver something for someone else?
The first bout of Covid-19 I had, I can tell it damaged my lungs a fair amount, yet I made an otherwise full recovery...If I get it again though...I might as well have been a chain smoker up until now with the amount of damage that'll be done.
Besides this I am finishing some school assignments. I have a few more tests after the new years, but this first finals we were given time to do at home so it has to be due in advance. This is fine though I enjoy the assignment topic. So I am having a good day in regards to tasks to get done.
I am also considering going on a diet
