Make them a goal instead of a memory.” I love these words, thanks Jules.

I love how you take even a 3% improvement as something to honor. Your walk with your nephew sounds absolutely wonderful. I think having those things we can put in our head to replace the slow, painful walking is so important. Thanks for giving us something wonderful to imagine today.

Pleased to hear about your 3%. That’s the same percentage as books in the US published in translation, doncha know :) There’s a nice Kindle blog I’ve been lusting after that looks at works in translation. Have to get a kindle first, of course. Minor detail :)

Over here in the UK I try to get to the Lake District at least once a year.

Going back five years ago, I would think of nothing of walking up 3 or 4 peaks of over 3,000 feet in a day, eight to nine hours out walking. The following year, I made it to the Lake District, just, and the most I could manage was a very painful and tough Km on flat and level ground.

Last year with drugs, rest and trusty sticks, I was back up in the hills. Yet to get up there this year.

On a separate thought, do you think customising wrist splints to look like wolverines claws is a good idea?
