The pain...

...and the pleasure.

I've had two days off with a very painful sciatic nerve spasm. I spent a miserable day yesterday curled up on my recliner chair or lying in bed - the only positions I could get comfortable in.
Today I decided that strategy was probably not doing me any good and I needed to get moving and do some gentle exercise. I started with a bit of yoga this morning and then I took Jim for a stroll around Bill's Wood. As long as I kept moving I was OK. It was very nice to get out in the fresh air, and the woods were peaceful, although the squirrels were driving Jim mad!
I'll go back to work tomorrow and see how I get on - but I think I'm going to have to miss Step class for now.
