My job requires me to be able to constantly recalibrate my agenda with what the unpredictable day presents.<br /><br />I smile as I write this, but I do think that this sort of mental gymnastic exercising is good for us.<br /><br />Going back to your post about Nicci French. I do think I have read one of those books, but my current read is Peter Robinson's Abattoir Blues...one of the DCI Banks detective novels set in Yorkshire. I've been reading this series for decades and have had the opportunity to meet Mr Robinson on a book tour ages ago.<br /><br />I wonder if you think that he captures Yorkshire well? <br /><br />Best wishes.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-85383606647433876812014-12-03T12:21:57.983-08:002014-12-03T12:21:57.983-08:00Well....... it was just not meant to be today .......Well....... it was just not meant to be today .... :) Maybe all that was meant today was for you to enjoy a glorious day crisp and cold with sunlight on your face and clear song of the robin in your heart... and cancelling that exercise class was the only way the Universe could think of to get you out in it...lol...

I think it's a good idea and also safe as no one is likely to get injured if they lose their balance. Even throwing a ball to each other in a circle is to finish the session is good for the reactions, which you couldn't do on dry land as someone might fall over.
