Always loved walking. In my 50's I did several lovely trails. Cotswold way, South Downs way. and as I am in Norfolk Walked the Ridgeway up to the Icknield Way, then Pedars Way. So completely West and home to east. I walk mainly on my own with one dog. So used to book BB for each night, averaging 15 miles per day. I would love to do many more, but I have 4 dogs now so not many BB's take that many!

Dennis , your words brought such a sad picture to. me. When we lose someone we have lived with for so long, it just changes our whole outlook on life and can feel there is no future for us anymore. I'm no psychiatrist but maybe you could set a day to do those jobs that your Alisa would have done, You will feel better, I have been through something similar. My husband was diagnosed with dementia, he went into care in April. Trying to go on living in our home felt wrong, but I had to learn to do the jobs he would have done - the 'man' jobs and it honestly made me feel so much better. Something to tackle and challenge me. Anyway I hope things improve in your life. Stay strong. KimP
