Day 1290 Lazy Sunday afternoon

21st February 2021

I was determined to take today off, we had friends round in the afternoon so we needed to prepare for that. That was the plan, but I just needed to thickness a piece of timber and attach it to a shelf, that was all.

I took a quick walk to the corner shop to get a carton of almond milk and vegan butter. The pavement was still thick with snow, but I love the walk anyway.

I helped prepare some snacks and uncorked a nice bottle of wine.

I grabbed some money that we had from the lady who collected the table. To our surprise there was far more there than we expected.

We were then in a dilemma, was it a mistake?

or a generous gesture, we had to find out.

Mike and Lesley arrived promptly at two and began telling us about their second Covid vaccination and the after effects. It’s not the same for everyone, and they suffered a bit.

A day for them was wiped out, with feelings of nausea and light headedness, plus a large rash on their arms, but they feel better for having it.

We had a good laugh playing dominoes drinking wine and eating cheese and biscuits.

I was excited to read that Menards have their 11% discount offer going again. I was waiting for that to start up again so that I can order the decking material once the snow has melted.
