We'd had rain again during the night, brightened up during the morning. Wasn't feeling like doing much today, was reading the news and my book for a while. Grocery delivery due between twelve and one, got ready for that, it arrived at 11.45. I'd ordered a couple of leeks, thought I'd make leek and potato soup, they were on the top of the crate, they were huge, looked like a couple of walking sticks. Had everything sorted out and stored in half an hour. Even with the current hygiene procedures that's a lot less time than it would take me to go round the supermarket. There's the time it takes to add items to the order but I can do that from the sofa.
After lunch I went for a walk, according to the Met Office the temperature was around six degrees but it felt colder than that. Bumped into a couple I know, had a chat to them, lovely to have company even for a short time.
Back home, did some watercolour painting, the light was fading and although I was tempted to carry on I left it, the electric light distorts the colours. Did some fish for tea, watched some TV, had a couple of glasses of the Chardonnay I'd had delivered.
Was reading that the government has relaxed the lockdown rules for dog walkers, apparently they can walk their dog more than once a day. I love dogs but I was rather perturbed to think that their wellbeing is deemed more important than mine. Nevertheless, I hope the furry friends enjoy their walks.
Look forward to hearing what everyone has been up to.
