Brick wall

I get up this morning trying my best to start the day as I mean to go on with a positive note. I need to get a grip, I've only broken my ankle, not lost a limb. Everyone here is so helpful that I really can't worry about anything but it's my stubbornness that gets in the way. I have plans this afternoon to have lunch with Nilo, and she kindly offers to pick me up. In advance I paint my nails as I'm grateful for every little thing that picks my mood up. Yvonne' mum is coming out with us today and it's nice to eventually meet her but I feel sorry for Nilo who has to take charge of 2 women on sticks. We enjoy dinner at our favourite fried chicken restaurant before she kindly drops me back with the offer that if I need anything to just call. I've gotten into a little habit of having a granny nap and it does seem to be helping as the littlest outing takes so much energy. I spend the rest of my evening touching base with home. It always helps. This past week has been the toughest of my 9+ month travel and although it's affecting me hugely I am still very blessed and proud in the fact I've gotten this far. It's been life changing but has definitely made me realise what makes me happy. Thanks to all the people I've met along the way that have joined parts of my travels and a huge shout to the people who are still drifting in and out. I have a beer but I'm really not in a drinking mood so take myself to bed to try and get a good sleep.Leggi altro
