A venture out

I thought it was about time I made the effort & ventured outside.
I remember when you were ill when I was young most people took to their beds!
These days new medical knowledge frowns on that….we have to keep moving!
My legs were quite weak & trembly….a good walk down the road a bit gave me a bit of confidence & exercise.

Thank you for all your good wishes.
I was scrolling through my posts trying to find the date I had my first dizzy episode. No luck but I realised how lovey it was to look back on all the photographic diary that is 365.

Please excuse me from much commenting at first. Reading is a bit dodgy still & the close lines seem to merge together after a while.
Must be careful & slowly slowly!

So nice to see an image from you. Fresh air and gentle walks will be a great way to make you feel better.

So lovely to see the bark of the birch glistening in the sun! Pleased to hear that you feel confident and well enough to venture out for a little walk! Yes, take heed of "be careful and slowly, slowly" !!!!!!!!!

Good to see you back. Take it easy. Have they found out what caused your dizzy spells yet. I remember you mentioning dizzy spells before but can't remember when.
Nice you are able to get out and have some fresh air but take it easy

Take care

As all of us probably need to do - is when out walking or going up and down steps, be very very careful. Too easy to unbalance and fall. I watch the ground in front of me all the time and do manage to stop walking into a power pole, though! At our age, if you don't use it you lose it so quickly so gentle walking has to be good. Too much sitting is not good either - I tend to do this but force myself up every hour to do some gentle exercises. Keep safe and be well!

IT IS BEAUTIFUL PAT

TAKE YOUR TIME AND GET WELL SOON.

FRESH AIR AND A LITTLE WALK IS GOOD.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT COMMENTING, AS I SAID BEFORE WE

ARE ALL HERE FOR THE LONG RUN AND WILL STILL BE HERE

WHEN YOU FEEL MUCH BETTER

It is important to keep moving, but it is also important to rest! A nice day for a walk.

[Issi Bannerman]

Lovely to see you posting a photo, but don't worry about commenting. Hopefully just scrolling through everyone's photos will also give you a lift. Take care. xx

[Lesley Aldridge]

Beautiful photo Pat, rest and move, take care xx

[John Falconer]

Great blue sky shot. Take your time.

[Boxplayer]

Do glad you've managed to make it out. Do take it easy and rest though - all about balance.

[Judith Johnson]

Love this view through the leaves Pat. I was getting worried that I hadn't heard from you for ages. Please get better soon, take it easy and don't worry about making comments, I'm sure we all understand.

Beautiful branches against the blue sky! So glad to hear you’re taking your time and going slowly!

[Carole Sandford]

Pretty shot. So good to see that you’ve been outside.
I seem to remember from my nurse training, many moons ago, that there are something like 23 complications of bed rest 😉

[Pat Knowles]

@carole_sandford Well there you are Carol….you definitely feel better up! When I think they used to keep you on bed rest for two weeks after giving birth! The very worst thing you could do!!
