Hi blog readers,
I know its Sunday but I'm sitting here with the laptop, dinner cooking nicely looking over at middle daughter and the stubborn one asleep on my sofa, and just thought I would drop you a line or two to let you know what has happened.
Well On Friday you will have noticed the lack of blog, this is because of the pain.....no, not the old man, and no not nagging sister! Oh dear what you like. No this is a real pain, it seems that my keep fit regime is not particularly good for me. The pain in the neck that I tried to ignore and run through on Thursday is back with avengence! It kept me awake Thursday night, resorting to pain relief in the middle of the night.
Of course I rang the doctors the next morning who told me to get the pain under control with strong painkillers and anti inflammatory drugs. She seems to think that it may be an over use injury, the little cushions in between the neck bones may have been squished! Well to me I would have thought that should have happened in the back lower down, I mean I am not svelte like, unlike nagging sister. But then I thought well actually, there is a lot of brains up there on top of my shoulders, impacting down on my neck, each jogging step impacting down on my neck.
So I shall have to take it easy for a week or so, ask the doctor tomorrow if there is anything that I could do that is not going to hurt me but help me get fit.
I am not giving up getting fit, just going to have to find a new way of doing it. Maybe riding my bike more, mmm that's a thought, ride my bike to the park and ride along side nagging sister, Vic.2, Happy neighbour and new buddy!!

Swimming can't really hurt yourself in the pool! Also remembering to stretch carefully alot before any and after any exercise (i'm talking at least 15-20 mins) usually helps to avoid injury.
