Stiff and Sore
Sunday January 23, 2005
As the day progressed I got more and more stiff and sore. But not too bad really just achy from certain movements, turning and stretching. Tom and I took a lovely very hot bath and I did my stretches and Tai Chi, push ups, and a couple ab exercises. I didn’t want to do too much today and possibly put myself into a position where I couldn’t exercise for several days. I also finally made the butternut squash “pumpkin” pie that I have been meaning to do for several days. It was the same recipe that I made for Faol. It calls for a blender and was such a pain to make that I had to dump it into a bowl and hand mix it at Faol’s. I attributed this to Faol’s older blender. So I went ahead and used the same method this time with the same results. It was not the blender. It just doesn’t work to make it this way. Maybe a very powerful blender would work but I doubt it. I like the recipe but I think it needs a mixer.
I plan on making “pumpkin” scones tomorrow as well. Then I will be leaving so I can have a bit of a taste then leave the rest with its extra calories behind with Tom.
I tried to walk the labyrinth but Tom and I had a run in and I couldn't get
into the right emotional space so it didn’t happen.
