Shadow’s Whisper – 25th April 2024

Take my hand, I’ll walk you home
Stay with me forever
The sun don’t shine when all alone
Let’s do this together

I’ll still be there in your dark days
Whispering inspiration
Don’t listen to what the devil says
Despite his adulation

Along the way, through thick and thin
Even with bridges burning
Because even if we don’t win
At least we are still learning

Today I’m feeling:

Lazy to get up despite kinda waking up at around 7 am when I could’ve got myself going but instead dozed until around 10 am. My body is aching in a good way.

Today I’m grateful for:

An afternoon storm today!  Hooray!  It was a bit of a surprise.  

Unfortunately, it also highlighted that the builders that came to fix our gutters in the garage have actually made it worse than before. Sigh.  

It seems impossible to get anyone to do a ‘proper’ job of anything here sometimes.

The best thing about today was:

Amy being out in the evening with Paew leaving me happily at home with the cats, Youtube and comics for company.

What was out of your control today and how did you handle it?

After getting up late and knowing Amy was going out I decided I would only have a light lunch and then get my favourite fish dish in the walking market in the evening.  I also figured I might buy another hash brownie to relax even further.  

Anticipating this had my mouth watering but sadly the fish stall wasn’t in the market today and the shop that usually sells the brownies was closed!  

Never mind.  There’s lots of time to enjoy everything.

Did you do something difficult or challenging today?

I spent the last ten minutes before getting up this morning contemplating whether to skip exercise this morning as even laying in bed my thighs were still aching from working out two days ago. 

But I forced myself and even though the app keeps giving me push-ups to do I just figured to replace some of them with arm curls instead. I did some knee push-ups though. Maybe one day I’ll be comfortable doing push-ups. 

Maybe. One day.
