More of the Same

It was very cold again yesterday. No walk. I think that was the coldest morning yet! Today was a little better but snow returned. I did manage to slide the car to the park for a walk. I wish I hadn't. It was snowy and blowy, and it was hard to walk in the deep snow. It kept snowing the whole time I was there. I ended up leaving early so I could slide all the way home. I managed not to slide completely down the hill (we live in the middle of a hill) and into the driveway. And that was where I stayed! Of course, not long after that the snow stopped. Sigh. Well, not completely. It was on and off most of the day.  I think things are supposed to get a bit better from here - at least for a few days!

I have been getting things done around here though so I suppose that's a plus! The little piles are slowly disappearing, and it does feel good. There are a few boxes sitting around that need to be dropped off for donation BUT before we do that we have to finish up with son's old flat. We were going to go round one day after work this week, but the weather and the roads have been so lousy (it's been too cold for anything to melt the snow/ice!) we haven't gone. We still have to pick up a few things and clean. He has a list. It's quite a strict one considering he's been there for nine years, and they haven't done a cosmetic thing in that long. We're going to do the best we can. Anyway, husband decided to take the day off tomorrow. He and I are going to do down, load up the van and start to do a bit of cleaning. We'll all finish up (both sons, husband and I) on Saturday. He has to turn the keys over by Sunday.

I have a feeling we aren't getting any of the security deposit back. They give you a list of things they will charge with if not done to their satisfaction. I'm tempted to just say forget it and let them charge for things I'm pretty sure they will try to ding us on anyway, but I can't do it. So we'll do the best we can. Son is worried (he worries a lot - think it's partly due to his Asperger's) that they will charge even more. I told him we'll deal with it if it happens. I told him to make sure he has all the times he's contacted them about certain problems he's having/had. Maybe I'm worrying too much too!

A few phone photos from my walk today












It's a sighting of a rare creature lol. I absolutely hate this hat, but I lost my other one and it was too cold to do without!
