Waking to snow, I had a lie in until around 10.30 by which time the snow had started to melt so I was able to drive out to a quiet spot with Lydia.

We had a short walk as it was still cold and I was tired. On the way back I stopped at a garden centre to buy some plants and liners for the hanging basket and trough at the front of the house. I’ll plant them up another day. This is one of the few remaining things I need to do before the house goes up for sale. The front door needs a patch-up of paint but I’ll wait till its warmer to do that.

This afternoon, after a rest followed by prayers and meditation, I’ve changed the bed sheets, tidied the kitchen and loaded up the dishwasher.

It’s amazing what a difference it makes having clean bed sheets and the kitchen was an easy tidy today.

Lydia and I had a quiet walk this morning.

After we had both breakfasted, I set about cleaning the bathroom. The steam cleaner helps a lot, and I made a concerted effort to do a good job.

It did look a lot better when I’d finished.

Being cold outside today, it’s been good to stay in the house, although the boiler seems to have packed up, and I’m definitely not going to opt for a cold shower!
