Feest Isolation Days – 25 January 2021
Glorious! The weather is giving us all a lift. On Saturday we sat on the swing in the fantastic sunshine and watched the prisms that the sun created on the dripping frost. It was magical! Like fairy lights on a Christmas Tree. As the swing moved us gently back and forth the colours went from bright gold to red to blue to green. It occupied and delighted us for ages! It was impossible to photograph so you’ll just have to imagine. Dots of brightness sparkling on bushes and branches.
Sunday morning, the weather was once again making us smile. What is it about snow? We woke to a white garden and an overcast day that didn’t seem dark because of the brightness of the ground and all around.
Once more we headed to our swing with our “take away” drinks in hand. Kitchen take away’s are SO our style these days!
The sun came out and the snow melted from the lawn, but the beds were still covered in white in the late afternoon.
My Sunday paper collection became a walk as the car was filled with snow and the streets were a bit icy. In fact, they weren’t too bad! Nevertheless, I walked. Dressed for a walk in the winter!
My Paper shop owner and I finally introduced ourselves to each other. Shak expects me now every Sunday as I’ve been going there for ages. This Sunday he gave me a present of a packet of biscuits as a late New Year gift. Very kind and most welcome. My three minutes inside his shop each Sunday have been a highlight of my weekend for months now and I suspect that won’t change for a time yet.
When I got back into our front garden I noticed something I hadn’t seen on the way out! They were definitely not there earlier in the week. Very sweet!
Apparently, sleep and sleeping well have been words that hit the top of the twitter word list since Wednesday. It would seem that the many people in the world are sleeping better since the new President and his team moved into the White House. They’ve got lots to do but have made a good start!
Go on start the week as you mean to go on! Enjoy yourself and stay safe. Covid is not finished yet. Keep up the good work!
With love,
