Well my walking is going well I am even surprising myself but, with all this walking comes some aches and pains .... Lets face it this old body is not used to it.
My friend Tom who works in our physio dept at the hospital came to my aid in just minutes, I told him that I have a bit of a click i n my knee and told him what was going on with it . I tell ya with in minutes he had pages of exrecise for me to do to help strenghten it up.
So many people have come forward with such kind words of encouragement and it really helps to keep me going.
This week at work I had a blue ribbon day , it was a great chance to talk with people that I don't usually see. I was very surprised to learn how many people suffer in silence with this disease, people you wouldn't even know that had it.
By being involved with this it has made me more aware of arthritis and more determined to help find a cure!!!
Another act of kindness is the cardmaking for our troops. I want to thank each and everyone of you that is taking part in this heartfelt project.
What an amazing thing our paper crafts have done.

A walk for my soal
On Friday I felt so sad and so mad.I had to do something good.
So I went on a 14km walk, I knew this would give me the chance to do some thinking.
And thinking is what I needed to do. Those of you who know me know that I wear my yellow ribbon almost every where I go , since our son has been in Afghanistan I can say in all honesty there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of our men and women over there. When I get up in the morning I look at our canadian flag smile and say may god bless each and everyone of you today and then I throw in a thankyou guys!!
On Friday when I heard about Angies husband my mind was in a whirl, my heart was pounding and I felt very helpless, all I could think of was how can I help this sweet person.
Some days I am not strong and I want to have them pulled out of there and brought home to where they will be safe but ,I know that isn't what they want . So by the end of the walk I was in a better frame of mind, strong again and ready to support, but my heart was still very heavy for Angie I guess only time will help because I have no answers for these feelings.
