I decided to walk down to the village
with Baby-Kalico in the buggy.
Unfortunately I forgot myself for a minute...
I forgot that it takes quite a long time...
And I forgot how bad my leg is... So it was quite hard work...
But I did get to see my tree!
I love this tree and I always enjoy looking at it,
as it shows the seasons change,
when I drive to and fro from the village.
Baby-Kalico had a great nap while I hobbled along
I did make it all the way to the A-road,
but then I had to hitch a lift home :)
(with DH who was coming to fetch one of the boys from school.)
I do love the scenery around here
And all the sheep...
And of course, the company on my 'walk'
was wonderful too!
Today's walk made me realise
that this next leg operation
will be just what I need
to be more active
for and with my children,
so although I am nervous,
I am also certain that needs must
and perhaps once I've recovered,
I'll manage a walk to the village
AND back! :)

I wish you all the best with this surgery, it's been a long journey with this leg repair and all of the recoveries past. You are a trooper so I have no doubt you'll find yourself hiking to and from the village with little ones in tow. Good luck! :-D
Beautiful countryside, Karol-Ann.
That must be frustrating to realize your limitations.
What a sweet little face on Baby Kalico!
Thanks for the virtual walk through that lovely scenery! I sure hope that after surgery you will be able to walk to the village painless and effortless! Happy weekend!
Love the tree - I have a favourite tree as well, but I don't have to walk quite as far to see it. I know the leg is really frustrating to you, so I think you are right that the operation is what you need...
All the best with the operation. Bev.
Beautiful tour of your walk on the road. Hope they get that leg of yours fixed soon!
I can't blame you for walking even under duress... your surroundings seem "healing for the soul" and that makes pain seem not as severe. Wish I could join you for a stroll out to your tree!
This time next year you'll be walking down that lane no problems at all...except maybe keeping the little one from vaulting the wall and running after the sheep!
