Oh dear!

Eating my muesli this morning, I thought there was a really tough bit of nut in my mouth. It turned out to be an enormous filling. My teeth have been fine for ages. I’m sure it was cos I was at the dentist on Friday, and he dislodged it with his probing. Oh well. Dentist again this week, I suppose.

Saturday was great. I met my OU friends and we went on a 4 and a half mile walk which ended as a six mile walk as we took a couple of wrong turnings. We started in the carpark at Huggate, and did a ‘circular’ walk up in the Wolds. After one wrong turning we slid down the hillside on our bottoms rather than retrace our steps too far. Good fun. Felt like a kid.

Well, I didn’t really feel like a kid. My breathlessness is always worse on hills, and my heart was pounding loudly. I can’t talk when I’m walking fast. Then, on the last bit, my knee startede playing up. Alex had phoned the pub to order lunch, as we were later than we expected to be, and in the end, Alex and Jane went on ahead, to secure our food. Pat was already in the pub as she couldn’t do the walk this month, having overdone the walking in the last few days. Alex returned with her car to give me a lift for the last half a mile, and I really appreciated it. I was knackered.

Sunday, I spent recovering. I overslept for Mass, and was going to go to another church for10.30, but it was later than I thought and was too late for that. I decided to go in the evening at Hessle, but was watching TV and again missed the time.

Still stiff today. About to have a shower, (should have a soak I suppose) and tackle the housework.

Oh, and make that dental appointment.
