Mum was a bit upset at the weekend. When I took her home on Sunday it was a lovely sunny day, with a bit of a breeze and she commented what perfect weather it was for a brisk walk.  And then she got weepy because she can barely walk a few paces now, and that's with her frame.  I keep saying I should make the effort and that reinforced my determination to enjoy a walk whenever I can.  The blessing - well, I guess it is those things that make us stop and think and make the effort to improve the here and now.
