Four months later and we're still getting nipped, even down here on the Mud Flats. I can't believe this winter.
Having recently added a walker to my means of travel, I find myself getting around in public rather better, though having old ladies open doors for me does tend to have a slightly demoralizing effect. OTOH I seem to be doing better than I was this time last year - a couple of weeks ago I took one turn with my cane around the track at the health club I go to (10 rounds @ mile), without falling down or having anything else untoward occurring, and this past week I brought the aforementioned walker, which is awkward to maneuver among the weight machines, and did off four rounds without any difficulty - and the last visit I did five - a half mile - so maybe there's hope yet. If I'd ever gotten into a course of physical therapy a year ago I'd be so much further ahead - but I didn't so that's that.
Anyhow.
It looks like spring is trying to get its foot in the door, the pecan trees are starting to bud, a clear sign that winter is over according to my Grandmother, so maybe we can move on to new things.
