Day 522

Day 522...

We have reached yet another Sunday and yet another quiet day.

The day started with collecting the weekly grocery shop from our supermarket of choice and we timed it just right as the store colleague was in the process of putting it all in the lockers. We saved her a job and made our job of loading it into the car way much easier and quicker.

Back home and with the shopping all put away we were at a bit of a lose end and didn't really have anything planned for the day. We could have found 'jobs' to do around the house but neither of us were in the right frame of mind. So with the weather not looking too bad and in fact the sun was just starting to shine we headed off out to find somewhere for a walk.

We headed over to one of our favourite coffee shops knowing that there were places to walk nearby. Well the closer we got to our intended destination the sun disappeared, the clouds got grey and then it started to rain. But we carried on not knowing whether to call it off and head home but just as we parked up the rain stopped. So armed with umbrella's we decided to brave the British summer and set off on a walk. We followed a bridlepath until it kind of ran out but in the hour we were out not only had the rain stopped but the blue skies were returning and it actually got rather warm and I think we managed just over two miles.



We then headed home deciding to have coffee and a spot of lunch at home and were able to enjoy the sunshine sat at home for about ten minutes before the rain came!

The rest of the afternoon was spent with a mixture of paying a few bills (whoop!) and scanning in some more of our old photos. I am still plodding my way through August of 1991 when we had our first visit to Orlando and Walt Disney World.

And while I've been messing with photos Simon has been getting creative with his digital art and has even generated a private commission!

And that has been today!

See you tomorrow.
