After a long time

 Well it has been a long time and so much has changed in our world. I am still around although I don’t know if anyone is going to read my post. Hope everyone is well and safe. Last year sped by so quickly. I was most of the time looking after hubby. Due to his medical condition he was falling ill frequently. We had to cancel our big summer holiday that we had planned. We didn’t know if we would be able to celebrate Christmas and go and see mum etc. Anyway end of the year things started looking up. We stared to plan again for our big holiday and planned for my friend to come visiting. Plus we went to see my mum in India. It was then that everything started going wrong in the world. We just managed to get back and went straight into isolation. 5 months in isolation has taken a toll as well. All my physical activities reduced even though I kept moving about in the house it did not help. Infact it now looks that all that frantic household activities I got busy with have taken a toll on my back. Have been suffering with back pain and at times barely move about. Now that we can go out I have to be careful how much I walk as my back can’t stand it.

So my creative side has been at a standstill. This is a project I started last year and I still have not got round to finishing it. Hope you all have not been like me

Take care and stay safe

  1. Good to read an update and that your husband is doing better and you got to see your mum. These months have been so strange. I keep getting out and walking because we live in an area where it is really easy to do that without crowds except on the weekends. I hope your back gets better and you can move around more easily. Love your two creations - absolutely adorable. the looks on their faces lolololol.

  4. Hey Shashi.. long time no see ..
    The little faces on the card dudes are great....
    Sure hope your back comes better soon... do you know what is wrong exactly? Can you get some good stretches to try from your GP or a physiotherapist? I find that if I keep up with stretching and moving ..mine is much better.
    I started to put on some pounds with having my hubby now working from home...he has snacks all day it seems, and I was eating with him. That has stopped!! I now have tried to get back to my own eating habit and back to doing my exercise bike and treadmill if we don't get out for our walk every day.
    I'm so happy I finally got rid of my plantar fasciitis problem... after two years. An amazing thing called a Night Sock was the answer... it took over 40 nights wearing it..but, it really did the trick.
    Brother, we all have some silly thing or other that is plaguing us don't we? ..and, now we have a real plague in the world... please let us all come through that.....
    sending you some hugs,
    Vee

  5. Hi Vee so good to hear from you. My back pain comes if I do vacuuming or mopping etc or stand for too long. Have been doing that as the help who used to come cannot come indoors anymore so have to do everything myself. Have done a MRI have to see the doc whenever i can get an appointment.
    I too have planter fasciitis but that doesn’t trouble me too much as I am doing exercises for the back . I do pilates. It used to trouble long tome ago but lots of exercise it is ok but I need to wear shoes that have arch supports. And you know those shoes are not exactly nice looking but i don’t mind now a days😀
    D now a days
