   Onwards & upwards! A few months ago, I couldn't imagine ever riding shotgun in the front of the van with this boy again. The jump onto the front seats was too high for his broken body. Since the accident, he's been riding in the back, all sad & drooling. Today, normality was restored, & he rode up front with us no problem. 🥳 We've been reducing his pain meds, too. As of tomorrow, he's off the gabapentin which he's been on since Sept, (we'll keep using the anti-inflammatories a bit longer). /1

     Meanwhile, I'm hobbling! 🤕 But I managed to get 4km in the bag today with a walk to Machrie Stone Circles with Nuis & Wally. The average speed was DofE pace (2kmph). Saw curlew, stone chat, and loads of lovely skylarks larking about. Amused myself by tying Nuis to the stone where the celtic giant Fingal allegedly tied up his naughty dog Bran.

     I miss work, running, and feeling like a purposeful human, but unlike Nuis, I've got the benefit of seeing the bigger picture, hopefully. 😬 /2
