Happy Birthday to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
admiralnick!
You know why there are so many birthdays around this time of the year? Because it's nine months after just about everybody's main vacation time.
Seriously, in summer 1981 my parents went camping with my older siblings (much to my mother's amusement as my older brother still needed nappies, which of course were cloth, and she had to wash them by hand and get them dry through two weeks of almost constant rain), the last holiday my family took until 1990 or 1991. As my Mum kindly informed me (that's always the stuff you don't really need to know), I was not around when they left for the holiday, but came back with them.
And the result? March 10th. (Only a bit more than a month now! Yay for birthdays!)
Half of the soldiers registered at the library have birthdays between February and early April. Humans are so predictable.
Also, I am still alive!
And I feel I could walk, if I had to. Not, perhaps, another fifty kilometres, but five or ten, or maybe even twenty. My feet are no longer freakishly swollen. My knees and Achilles tendons don't really appreciate stairs at the moment, but I'm feeling much better than I expected. I'll be going out at some point today and see what my legs and back have to say.
