That turtle is just adorable!!!
I have always liked to walk and try to push myself to do it regularly. But some days it's a real push as I can spend all day on my feet at work (primary teacher) and the psoratic arthritis causes tendon inflammation - so it feels like I have plantar fasciitis every day for weeks on end. The anti inflammatories help the hip pain, but do little for my feet. Thankfully walking doesn't really make it worse, it's just so hard some days to motivate myself to head out for a walk on painful feet. (Seriously, I'm 46 and listening to myself I sound like I'm 80! Gah!!)
@Julez1958 since posting I've been (again) having a cold hard look at my life and I do think I could probably benefit from seeing a psych again. Even just writing it all out in the original post has helped me to have some more clarity and identify a few more things in my life that are causing stress (and start thinking about what I can do about them).
