Refreshing Rain

I've been feeling pretty low this week. My asthma has been quite bad, which in turn has made me feel quite sluggish and energy-less. I had a day off work sick yesterday because I couldn't quite seem to work up the momentum to get out of bed.

But then today magically I felt a little revived. The weather was not exactly what you'd call inspiring - a typical grey drizzly London day, and it all started off badly with train delays and cancellations. And one thing I have found with my job is that more often than not, even if I go into the office feeling less than 100%, going out to see patients will often perk me up. And by the time I'd walked to and from various stations and buses to and from my home visits, I'd put 3 miles on the pedometer. And since I was feeling that little bit more lively and enjoying the drizzle-laden fresh air, I decided to go for it and walk home. So at the end of the day, 5.5 miles made me feel a lot more like myself again, and like I'd achieved something to boot :-)
