End of the Week

Thank Goodness this one is over! 

They guys are still fighting the flu. They both went back to work on Thursday. Husband only managed half a day, son managed the whole day. He told the foreman that he wasn't working outside. Thankfully, he's been inside both days. He's really tired now, but he's got the weekend to finish up. Husband managed a full day today. He certainly sounds a lot better and isn't coughing quite as much. I think this the first day he really seems a little more like his normal self. Hopefully, resting up for the weekend will have him well on the mend. He's out of breath when he walks, but I told him that could last weeks (at least it did for me after I've had the flu!)

As for me, I went out for a walk. It was pretty cold this morning. I think it was about 9F/-13C. Brrr. But the wind wasn't blowing. I was bundled up. I walked by myself, and I was glad I did. I took a wander through Asylum Lake. It snowed yesterday (no walk) and the snow was quite deep in places as it had drifted. There wasn't a lot of wildlife or birds around, but I found it quite peaceful as there weren't many people around either!

After the walk, I did go a few places. We're under another Winter Weather Advisory and I wanted to get out while I could. I picked up a few bits for the weekend in case husband isn't feeling well enough to drive me. This afternoon I messaged with sister. She sent me lots of photos of the birds she's been seeing on her walks. She lives quite near the Orwell Bridge so can take a walk along the river and see lots of birds. I'm really jealous! We talked over plans for me to visit so I can start planning. It's really something to look forward to! She's off out for the weekend. Her children got her tickets to Hairspray in Norwich and gave a voucher for a meal. She's looking forward to it as she has a busy week ahead with her Grandchildren as it's half term in their area. 

I chatted with Baby A this afternoon. It's amazing how far she's come in just over a month of walking! She now rarely stays still and moves quite steadily on her feet. They shared a video this week of her outside in the snow all bundled up. She looked quite bewildered! 

Thanks for all the comments about the decluttering and how you tackle the amount you paid for something and how to let it go. I'm trying to rethink how I approach this and thinking more of the final goal. 

Photos for today, just snow from my walk today. These are phone photos. It was quiet and peaceful and, well, just snowy.
