A little misery ... plus some joy

It's miserable to not be able to exercise, but that's been my situation for the past couple of weeks as my left foot hurts like mad. Old injuries plus a new one all combined to create a hobbled, slow movement - I'm almost limping from point to point.

The doctor has advised me to stay away from 'running' during this period, and I guess that's what I need to do.

Music-wise, it's been quite positive - the band plays a gig tonight, with another lined up a month hence. The new singers are working out, but they could be groomed for bigger tunes. We'll take what we've got for now.

Work-wise, it's been a quarter of freelance jobs, but it's been good as I don't have to deal in corporate BS any longer. It's been a great recharge for the spirit and I'm beginning to love what I do again - writing.

Anyway, hopefully I'll get past this bleak spell with my foot, and return to running again - I've got 2 races to train for (Oct and Dec), and I need to get the mileage in. Wish me luck.
