Another hurdle

Well, that gym membership didn't last long. Just sent off a request for a refund. No, I am not a wimp, it turned out that the pain in the ribs is caused by a hairline fracture, (a radiation present), and they gym can't postpone this particular membership, hence the refund.

Honestly, this is so frustrating! I remember being warned that brittle ribs could result from radiation, but you know, that happens to someone else, not me! I've had a hairline fracture on the same side about 20 years ago, but that was after falling on the ice on a terrible winter day in Washington DC. This time I think I was just doing exercise on the X-trainer that I bought many years ago and occasionally actually use.

Well, good bye X-trainer and hello ThinWalking. Have any of you heard of that one? A friend just gave me a small booklet about how you can walk yourself thin. Maybe that's the solution. So, I am off for a walk on Bondi Beach - cracked rib or no. The sun is shining, and Bondi beckons.

Besides everything, one of the best places in Sydney for yummy Hungarian walnut and poppy seed strudle is on Bondi Beach! Just the thought makes me feel better already!
