Art in Progress
First off let me apologize, I had a busy week this past week, with family matters and a few Drs appointments, so I just didn't have time to comment in all the Wednesday Walk posts, but this week I should be fine to keep up with them all.
I mentioned in yesterdays post how I was really feeling the cold in my feet, particularly my left foot, and I was thinking or hoping it was just my body not used to the cold yet.
But as it happens that wasn't the case, most of my Drs visits and checkups went pretty well, I have put on some weight that I need to work on loosing and starting to try and do that from today after sharing this post.
But back to my cold feet one of the Drs visits I had was to the Vascular office, including ultra sounds on my legs and carotid ( neck) and today I went to see the Dr for the results, Well my left side is good, but the right side not so bad, my right arm has signs of slight blockage in my arteries, but nothing major and no action on that other than doing the ultrasound again next year.
However my legs were a different story, there is a blockage in my leg it seems it is close to 75% blocked, so I have to have a CT scan on the 8th of December to confirm the extent of the blockage and confirm whether or not I need the procedure to clear out the arteries.
Now I am not so stressed about it to be honest, as I have had blockages in both of my legs and had this procedure a couple of times before and have stents in both legs, but it was a bit frustrating to see another one forming, after a few years now without them happening, but ohh well it is what it is and i hope for the best.
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
and thats a long intro to also excuse why my walk for this week that I am sharing is a short one. I popped downtown for a walk, the temp was 41F I think and i had layers on and my body was warm, but very quickly my feet particularly the left foot was feeling so cold, I called it quits got back in the car and warmed up
But on the short walk I did I came into Wings Court which has an area for local artists to do murals and came across one artist working on a mural

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.
