Looking up

Jealous of the rest of Team IttH's visit to Porthleven (or should that be "escape to", lol) I managed to hobble outside today and sit on the bench in the sun for a while, I considered it my reward*

Looking for a blip metaphor surrounded me - the covered vintage sports car, wheels not turning, rust starting to show - or maybe the leaves fading into their last blaze of glory. Instead I went with these still blooming cheery pink things and a hint of blue sky.

*first injection done. I'm well aware that many many people have to do this every day and more often, sadly that didn't help me one little bit, I'd like to say I respect them for it, but mostly I'm just horrified on their behalf. It took an age to summon the will to do it, left me soaked in sweat and with an alarmingly high heart rate. I've counted in horror several times and there really are 13 more in the box. Cliff climbing is easy compared to this.
