Not a bad end to the week. It was below freezing when I went out for my walk this morning, but the sun was shining and that's always a plus! I had a nice walk with my friend. I had debated about going to do a mini food shop after or leave it, but that would mean going on the weekend and I really hate food shopping on the weekend, so I ended up going and picking up a few bits. Got the things done on my list and then messaged with sister for a long time. I had to really think about the time change difference again. The US changed did the Spring Forward thing a couple weeks back, the UK doesn't do it for another week. Instead of five hours difference we're on four and the end of our chat usually lands right when we eat. One more week and then we'll be back to normal lol.
Tomorrow is another social day - too many - too many - lol. It's our first volunteer day at Asylum Lake. It's only for three hours, but that's more than enough. Half of me is looking forward to it, half of me dreading it. It doesn't help that I pulled my back a few days ago and I can still feel it. Not so good if we are bending over to pick up rubbish! I am going though as I can't go to the next three as we will be away.
My plan is to go for a nice relaxing nature walk by myself, go home and get something to eat, pack up some water and then go a little early so I don't have to worry about parking as it is limited. I'll do the volunteer event (hopefully I won't have to talk too much!) and then I'm going home and taking a nice warm, relaxing bath. The high tomorrow is going to be just above freezing but at least the sun will be shining.
I'm not planning on much beyond that.
Just trees. I'm finding them quite fascinating at the moment.
Some of our trees are coming into leaf; willow, birch and hawthorn. 'Just above freezing' sounds too cold for me, but I think the cold weather here is damper and that makes quite a difference.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see leaves on trees! It's pretty bitter here right now, but yes, I think the cold is different.
DeleteTrees are lovely as they begin to put out leaves, as if they are slowly waking up. I hope your volunteering at Asylum Lake goes well.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It went well
