On Our Walks
A while back there was a lovely thread of sunrises that the early risers among us posted. I loved it, so I thought I'd broaden it to a thread for all the lovely sights we see as we do our slow staggers through chemo, or those walks we take after active treatment has finished and we're trying to get our strength and fitness back.
In Melbourne today the weather was sunny, still and mild; perfect for a walk. I have followed my GP to a small town in the Yarra Valley (a good GP is worth the 30 minute drive I reckon), and right outside her surgery is the start of a beautifully laid out walking track. It's 7kms long and I've been keen to explore it. So today I walked halfway along it and back. At over 7kms it was the longest walk I've done since the day before chemo!

- Yep you're on @tigerbeth. Next year in 2020.
We could be "The Breasties".
Maybe a Big Girl's Weekend away somewhere. - Sounds like it could be a good project @tigerbeth! K xox

Happy to organize a theatre/dinner night(weekend) whenever Annie is ready .
Maybe we could organize a Melbourne gathering before that ,plenty of time on my hands !;) - Hmm Ladies. I am going to have to work on a Melbourne trip. Will have to be 2020, finances you know. Oh and an inability to breathe. Bloody lungs, who needs them!
Oh Kate
@kmakm
I shall have to design a very special quilt. So very kind and thoughtful of you. - @"Annie C" Can't wait! I think we better get a private room at a restaurant and make a night of it! I'll come to the theatre with you if you want some company, love a show.
Btw, I got you some lengths of Indian fabric when I was there. Winging their way to you soon. K xox - @Annie C Count me in too! I live an hour from Melbourne and I love live shows, not to mention I want to meet all you lovely ladies. xxx
- @"Annie C" love to catch up again !
love the stage shows too !
Definitely catch up let us know when!❤️ - We all hope to be around!! Ages since I have been in Darwin and I have only been on the edges of the Kimberley, shame on me. May need to be later in the year as I have just bought my tickets for holidays in May - Venice, Amsterdam, Oslo and then some tootling around very old haunts in Scotland.
- I hope to be around @"Annie C" Around where will be the question :)
- Ah you ladies are great.
@arpie
Watch out Darwin! Imagine 2 "ladies" who have been through what we have, being let loose in Darwin. I might even stay up past 9pm!
@Blossom1961
The next time you are being irresponsible and make it to the Kimberley I will look forward to meeting you and being a little out of character irresponsibly wise!
@kmakm
Melbourne is a-calling. Who knows I just might make it back sometime in the next 2 years especially if there is a stage show I would like to experience.
It would be great to catch up with you, @tigerbeth, @Afraser, @Zoffiel and anyone else who would be around!
