LindaGHill is here again in my email and she is very excited, she had this to say: “And, it’s a wrap! Today is our thirty-first prompt for Just Jot it January 2023. This month has felt like the longest month ever, and yet it’s flown by. I won’t say too much here because I want to leave some for tomorrow’s wrap up post. But what do you say we finish this thing with a flourish?

Your prompt for JusJoJan January 31st 2023, is “write.” Use the word “write” any way you’d like. Have fun!

If you’d like to see what I have so far on your prompt list and what’s to come, you can find it HERE.“

I write because it keeps me alive
because it is the one thing I have that is mine and mine alone and unless they remove my brain or fingers it will always will be.
I write because there is so much inside my head screaming to get out. So much so that I have removed so many earlier posts about me and pain, worries and family because they really were not for publication.
Amazingly what started as therapy as I learned to walk again after breaking my back the second time hasn’t it turned into something quite different. Hopefully it has grown as I have and is no longer a pity party…Oh! I do hope so!
I write because I have met so wonderful people and they have given me strength… Thank you all so much.
I write because I want to!

Well done everyone we did it 💜💜💜

Canine Colleague

Inch by inch they moved forward, attached by ropes around their waists. The ice was so cold they could feel it chilling their bones.

Carefully watching for any cracks that might appear in the ice, the man at the front of the line signaled for them to stop and listen.

They all did, hearing the ice groaning and over that the tired howling of exhaustion. They all knew what to do. Spread out, those at the front laid down and continued to inch ahead. Those further back held on tight to the ropes securing the men at the front.

They held those ropes tight they could not give an inch or they might slip and drown.

The howling was getting quieter now but no one could give up or relax their efforts. This was a valued member of their team who had saved many of them before.

The cry went up “Got her” slowly inch by inch they hauled her out. She was passed down the line across the frozen lake to the shore. As soon as she reached the bank she was wrapped up warmly in a moon blanket. And rushed off for medical treatment.

Later they visited her, luckily the Vet said she would be fine but this fabulous dog, part of their team had been within an inch of losing her life! Even so she was soon back working with them again.

When we exercise we get an adrenaline rush.

James laughing at himself 🤣😂 love him.

Exercise feeds the brain
Exercise increases blood flow to the brain. Due to its high metabolic demand, the brain demands good circulation, and exercise aids it. An increase in blood flow is not only extremely beneficial, it is essential. Exercise induces good blood flow to deliver all the nutrients required to carry out the brain’s job, while it also increases production molecules important to brain function, including memory.

Throw in the Towel

When it is too difficult
To slow your pace give up the lead
When the going gets tough

When you can no longer duck the punches.
The gym implodes you can do no more crunches.
That job has taken so long it makes you scowl.
Give up, give in, throw in the towel.

Winters bleak with ice and snow
Spring like its name full of new life
Summer colours dress our country
Autumn brings fruitful bounty.

Nature’s way
Count on
It
