| Squalicum Harbor |
I am amazed at how quickly the summer is flying by. It's not only Saturday again already, but we are now losing a minute of sunlight per day. Not that I mind all that much, since I go to sleep these days while the sun is still fairly high in the sky. I need my sleep.

| My sore ankle |
As soon as I got home last Thursday I bandaged it and put some pain relief cream on it, and the next morning it wasn't any stiffer than the rest of my body, and before long it didn't hurt at all. Apparently I broke some blood vessel in there and it looks a lot worse than it feels. Today on the walk it didn't hurt, so I'm happy.
Tomorrow I have my first Level I yoga class, and I'll be explaining that ankle to my instructor, I suspect. Anyway, life is good, the day is lovely, a summer's day in the Pacific Northwest, and I am ambulatory!

I am very glad to hear that your ankle doesn't hurt. It looks VERY painful. Look after your important self. Please.
ReplyDeleteThe ankle looks sore. I'm glad it recovered so quickly.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! The ankle looks sore. Glad you were still able to walk on such a lovely day. I'll be interested to hear how you like your yoga class. I've never tried it, thinking it would be hard for me to be that still.
ReplyDeletethat ankle does not look good, but if you can keep going, more power to you.
ReplyDeletePopping a blood vessel always makes an injury look worse that it feels. So glad you are still on your feet!
ReplyDeleteWe walked our 3.25 miles this morning, and then have taken our time getting the house work done. Tom cleaned out the cars too.
We are slowing down for the holiday weekend, although I have a bunch of cooking to do tomorrow. It's so beautiful outside, but it's hard to get out of my recliner this afternoon.
yikes! glad it looks worse than it feels!
ReplyDeleteWow - your ankle looks awful! Glad it doesn't hurt and you could go for your Saturday walk.
ReplyDeleteLove that harbor pic - but the ankle one, not so much. Glad it looks worse than it is (I think? that's what I mean as it looks like it could really hurt). Both my wrists looked like that when I fell in N.O. last year.
ReplyDeleteBlood vessels seem to break easily on seniors. It's good that you had no substantial or serious damage.
ReplyDeleteThat's one beautiful harbor, and one ugly ankle . . . take care of yourself!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Harbour Photo, looks like a winning photo. Hey Girl, the colour of the toes is nice too. ha,ha Yep, the ankle does look nasty, but good to hear you are ambulatory. I think those olde vessels break easier when we are olde. My bruises tell me so when I am out hiking, walking, riding, eh. Have a wonderful July 4th.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo of the harbor - and the ankle! Glad it didn't keep you down! Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay and that it was just a sprain! That is a beautiful photo of the harbor...too bad about the men...maybe they need to form their own group:(
ReplyDeleteWow, that ankle looks sore! Pretty nail polish, though.
ReplyDeleteYikes, that is one wicked looking ankle. You obviously did all the right things since that you could walk with the ladies and those 2 guys. Lucky for that new guy that at least he wasn't the only one.
ReplyDeleteWow Djan... my ankle didn't look that bruised after I broke it !
ReplyDeleteSending healing wishes your way.
What a beautiful view of the harbor, so serene and peaceful.
Wishing you and yours a happy and safe July 4th weekend.

I've been away from blogging so long. Please forgive me. Then, when I come back, what do I see but your foot??? That looks pretty sore. I hope it doesn't continue to bother you. Sometimes those sprains of the ankle are worse than a break. Take care dear one. Enjoy yoga.
ReplyDeleteOO that does look sore and a bit painful too. I hope it soon mends for you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sore ankle. I hope you are better today.
ReplyDeleteLove the beautiful harbor image! Makes such a soothing, restful feeling come all over me!!!!
ReplyDeleteHad to laugh at the two guys showing up...and couldn't keep up with you ladies. WTG
Terrible looking sprain. Enjoy the yoga.
