Chapter 8

Since my last post I have been doing much the same thing. I have seen some relatives that i have not seen for a while. Ive also had a nice Chinese meal with my friend and his family. He has got dogs and the bitch has just had six pups. One had to be put down but the others are fine. Ive been doing well at the gym. I have increased my cardiovascular work. I could not do it for a while as I hurt my knee. Over the years my training has been a lifesaver. It has kept me busy and has always been there. A friend once said to me why do you keep doing it. I said it is because it is always there. It is definately good therapy in combatting mental health issues. Even a simple thing as a walk or tidying around the house can be therapeutic. If you have not got the time or inclination to do sports you can get dvds to follow at home. You can also buy simple equipment to assist you such as dumbells and mini steppers. It will do you good if you stick at it. It is hard at first, you may ache but it is worth it. Give it a try. Take care.
