Day Eighty-Seven - Cramp My Style

So if I was still feeling smug yesterday after my hedge trimmer experience I've had the smile wiped off my face. I'd forgotten that it was quite a heavy and unwieldy piece of equipment and at the time it didn't occur to me that it might take its toll on my ageing body. But for the first time in weeks I had cramp in the night. And as always it's followed by a horrible ache the next day. So coupled with some pretty inclement weather I did not go for my walk this morning. I had a lie-in. It was quite pleasant, to be honest. And I did tai chi and some yoga so that I have exercises today. And I played Popmaster alongside my friend. We WhatsApp each other our results! It's really quite competitive.  I've been stressed all day because today is the day of her full body scan. Once results of the scan have been studied we'll a better idea of what she's up against. I just can't focus on anything else. I've achieved nothing today really. It's her granddaughters birthday as well. She's seven. And I've just had a message to say that my friend put on a hazmat suit and was able to hug the grandchildren for the first time since lockdown. There's not a lot else for me to say today. And I doubt whether the results of the scan will be immediate. So I'll leave it here for today. Hopefully I'll be walking again tomorrow and the weather will improve and who knows........... But for now it's a quiet kind of day.
