Hi everyone! For this post I have chosen a beautiful, short, one minute video entitled "Lily Pond." I found it lovely and refreshing and hope you all do as well.
I was invited to a friend's place for Easter dinner this evening. Unfortunately, though, I am unable to go, as I can barely walk. I woke up yesterday morning in a great deal of pain on my left ankle...and still have the pain right now. I think it is bursitis, caused from too much friction on a joint, and some fluid accumulates on the joint which causes the pain. Other than this, though, I am fine, thankfully. I am O.K. with it, I am taking it in my stride and trying my best to not cause more stress on the foot by keeping it elevated as much as I can. I would really appreciate your prayers and thoughts on my behalf.
The photo I am sharing today is one I took on a walk last week. You just need to click on the image to see a larger view. It isn't much but I found the ripplets of water and the soothing sound very nice!
Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I really appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share by clicking on the 'comments' link at the end of my post.
How rotten to have this problem when you had been invited to a friend's house.
ReplyDeleteRest as much as you can.
We have a song for children with the same melody, Linda. Beautiful (sun)flowers !
ReplyDeleteThe picture of the water makes calm...
Lie(f)s.
What a shame to miss out on an Easter dinner! I hope your enjoyable walks are not the cause of your condition. Hope you have a peaceful & relaxing weekend & try to stay off your feet!
ReplyDeleteMuch love,
Kim
Get well soon,
ReplyDeletebest wishes,

Interesting video! Very refreshing!
ReplyDeleteEspero que pronto se recupere de su dolor de tobillo y pueda disfrutar de largos paseos primaverales para regalarnos sus fotos. Esas aguas del río son, de hecho, una muy buena base para una fotografía abstracta. Un abrazo, Miguel.
ReplyDeleteI hope that soon recovers from his ankle pain and may enjoy long walks of spring to give us their photos. Those waters of the river are, in fact, a very good basis for abstract photography. A hug, Miguel.
Bursitis is not fun! Take it easy and rest up over the holiday.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post and perfect for Easter. I am sorry about your ankle though... Hope you are feeling better now.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you and yours. God Bless.
Hugs,
Betsy
So sorry! How do you think you put too much friction on your ankle? I hope it heals really quickly.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your ankle! I hope with rest it will soon be back to normal. I enjoyed the video and the photo--I love pictures of water. Take care of yourself, and have a Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy Easter...in spite of your injury.
ReplyDeleteThat is sad that you couldn't go. Take it easy. I hope all is well soon.

ReplyDeletesending you warm thoughts from malaysia to montreal, hopefully this will reach you from across the globe. i hope you wake up feeling significantly better today.
ReplyDeleteAh non ! 56 is very young. What I can say at 75 ? Toujours jeune ... jusqu'à 100 ans ! Na.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice Easter week-end.... under snow ?
Hi! I hope you will recover soon. I enjoyed this video,singing twinkle twinkle little star in my heart.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful week ahead.
Hello Linda. It is good to meet you and thank you so much for stopping by my post today.
ReplyDeleteYour ankle sounds very painful. I hope you get some relief soon...as I am sure you will as you are taking good care of it.
Lovely, gentle video with wonderful scenes of summer. Something to look forward to.
Has spring arrived in Montreal as it has here in Nova Scotia?
All the best and sending some Maritime fresh air to help in your recovery.
Keep low in your lair Linda. Get well asap....:)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your painful ankle. Hopefully, that has mitigated by now and you're out and about as usual. Happy Easter to you.
ReplyDeleteThe video was delightful. Reminded me of a series of paintings by the old masters. Such great colors and variety of flowers. I also liked the cottage and the sunflowers, and how the video kept coming back to the lily pond!
Best wishes to you!
Water is so soothing and relaxing. I can hear the water flowing by in your picture. Hope you are feeling better. I will pray for you.
ReplyDeleteThe video is great and even though the photo is "still life", it seems to move. Praying your ankle is feeling better.
