Despite my 'glass back' which is giving me so much pain just now. My dear mother expected me to visit her yesterday.
When I arrived I realised she wanted me there so she could fuss around me, cook for me and hope to make the pain go away........ the long journey was so worth it and appreciated.
She is in her late 70s and can't travel to me, so the way she sees it is that I go to her (despite cringing as I 'folded' myself into the car, after getting the pup in and delivering my teen to her dad's ... propped up and in no pain until I attempted to 'unpeel' myself out of the car again)
The sun was shining and I was at the sea side..... so I 'folded' myself back in the car and drove us down to the beach.......... Oh I am so glad I did.
We walked along the shore, getting our feet wet in the puddles left after the sea had retreated. My 70 years plus mum walked faster than me (which did her soul so much good), my niece ran with my pup (which did the pups soul good and my nieces too, she said how alive she felt running along the shore) and I watched all this (which made my soul leap)
