Friday Thoughts #20
I had my second Shingles vax a couple of weeks ago and once again was laid up with fever and aches and pains. I took a while to start to feel better and nearly fainted in the gym the following week, but I have managed to get back into running, completing fours runs, all easy,…

I’ve been cutting back my overgrown herbs so the garden is neat before we go away. The lemon verbena was particularly unruly, so I gave it a good trim and put some branches inside. I’ve been picking leaves off each night to make fresh lemon verbena tea. I had these photo galleries on my list…
