Where is Team Shell

Where is Team Shell I hear you all ask? Well she is here as always. I went to the physio last week as my knee was just starting to hurt more and more and I thought that it was about time someone looked at it. So I can tell you officially that yes my knee is damaged goods and will be sold as second hand goods. Seriously though there is damage (which I knew) and it seems that perhaps I shouldn’t have been running etc on it BUT I can do some other exercise such as walking swimming so that is what I am doing… I wont get the fast results that I have been getting because everything has slowed down a bit. I am going to have 6 sessions of physio and then after that it will either be good news or maybe need some surgery! Yikes…..

A friend sent an e-mail to a bunch of us asking if we would like to go in the Canberra Times Fun Run… There is a walk that is 5km.. .. I think that I might do it.. Why not really? If it is sunny I may even get a tan on my legs before summer comes… Oh and I will get some exercise as well.. :)

I am not really sure if anyone besides Fairy Godmother and Alison (and Pandora and Liz and Mandy) read my blog but if you do hiya! How exciting the days are getting longer and I can feel them warming up!

Oh by the way, word on the street is that Pooks and Mrs Pooks are going away this weekend. Pooks thinks that it will be a romantic getaway but Mrs Pooks has other ideas. Bike riding and canoeing and maybe some tennis!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and fresh seafood…. None of that battered crap thanks.

Happy Tuesday everyone. Can you believe that August is almost over already?

Hi there young lady, I did wonder what you were up to .. look at your counter at the bottom of the blog page, surely that tells you how many people read your blog. When I check out your blog, I note that the number has been quite significant.
Have you forgiven me yet for being a Simpson's fan? Hey you and your man, have a great weekend.

It sounds like it will be a fun weekend and why can't bike riding, canoeing, tennis and eating yummy healthy fresh seafood be romantic?!

So sorry to hear how bad the knee injury is. But surely with your diligent approach to doing the exercises that will help its recovery. Your continued weight loss has also got to be good for your knee.

Hi Shell,
I haven't forgotten you just haven't been writing. We're deep into a hot summer but fortunately here by the ocean we've had the ocean breezes. Also, with hurricane Dean off the Atlantic I have been driving myself crazy with fear of the hurricane season and our location. So while you are dealing with winter drought much of the USA has major flooding -- we do not, thank you God. We've had enough rain though that the grass is green and the weeds are very tall. I have discovered that snakes and bugs live in the garden and I don't like either (read that as fear,hate or dread), so the weeds are winning.
Glad you are keeping up the good challenge and altering when necessary (knee trouble. Say hi to everyone.
