Husband was still coughing but did manage to get out and snowblow the driveway. I had got out yesterday and shovelled a path along the side of the house, to the front porch and around my car but with the extra snowfall and the ploughs coming through (they end up shoving a pile in front of the driveway) it really needed to be done. He was out of breath when it was done. The inhaler he was given seems to help.
We did get out for a bit. He usually cooks on the weekend and although I had planned quick things I could do instead of him, we decided to treat ourselves to a takeaway from a place in a neighbouring town. I persuaded him to stop at a park there and I took a quick walk even though the snow was quite deep!
It was nice just to get out. I like this park. There are some fairly big hills there and there were people out with their children sledding down the hills. There was even a place you could borrow one! How good is that?
I had forgotten how much I like this park. There are lots of really interesting trees there. It was actually quite peaceful. I certainly felt better getting out. It was nice to hear the children laughing as they played in the snow.
There is more snow coming. Maybe. Perhaps. At some time. Lol. It's a running joke with husband and I as the forecast never seems to be right! We haven't got a lot extra today, but we're still under a Winter Weather Advisory until 7pm tomorrow night so we shall see. We are going out tomorrow. Husband probably won't be walking, but he is up to driving me somewhere.
Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend!
What a lovely idea to have sledges to borrow. I looks a beautiful park, even in the snow. xx
ReplyDeleteIt's a really pretty park. I forgot how much I like it. It reminds me more of the parks in England.
DeleteThat looks like a really nice park. I'm glad your husband is feeling well enough to drive you and you got to go out and about, a bit. :)
ReplyDeleteMe too. He is still coughing away. It's really lingering on.
DeleteI got driveway and back shoveled in an hour- I'm slow but go at a steady pace, trying to actually enjoy the solitude. I just hate the chunky stuff the plow leaves at end of driveway as it's so heavy. I think I'll get a walk in before showering. I mixed up some quick bread to use up apples going soft, and yeast bread to rise. A walk will help me justify the carbs!
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a workout in itself! I did shovel a bit the day before but it was the heavy wet stuff so I did little paths we needed until husband could get out.
DeleteHope the walk was enjoyable! It's been a cold one there today. Cold here too, but I was looking at daughter's weather and bbrrrr.
Hugs - I hope that your husband feels better soon. Snow puts an extra layer of work onto you.
ReplyDeleteI adore the idea of a sled library!
