I Overdid it a Bit

Saturday

Dear Elsie

Today was the day we both overdid it a bit. You overdid the party food at your friend’s 6th birthday. I’m glad you enjoyed it and it was good to see you on our video call today. Granny overdid it on a run this morning. I didn’t realise how unfit I am and how it would wipe me out for the rest of the day. I didn’t run the whole way either. I jogged down the downhills and walked up the uphills. It was a lovely overcast morning.

I went down Highway, up Hillside to Kommetjie Road, along Kommetjie Rd back to Highway and all the way home. I didn’t feel too bad on my return. I had a shower & breakfast and then took Julian to the airport. The guest in the cottage was also flying, so he tagged along. After doing the dropoff, I stopped by Constantia Emporium on the way home and it was about then, I began to feel very, very tired.

After getting home, Mike made me cappuccino and I went to bed. I slept! That was helpful. I also took a couple of pain pills for my pounding headache and that also helped. I’m feeling better now. I won’t be scampering about like that again in a hurry. I did get an idea of how awful David must feel. If how I felt today is how he feels all the time, it’s horrible to say the least.

I did some puzzle; I read some of the entertaining rabbit book. Mike has made spaghetti bolognaise for dinner.

A quiet evening follows.

Psalm 59:16
I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.

It’s not about now – we are only passing through.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.

In His Grip,

Gran xx 🙂
