2017-12-12 – A sheet of ice.

It was a cold night last night, and the road outside our house is a sheet of ice that remains frozen the whole day – I narrowly avoid falling flat on my backside this morning, when I slip whilst taking the dog for her walk.  I’m certainly a lot more cautious when I take her out for another walk this afternoon.

I make some progress with my neighbour’s safari holiday video, but it’s pretty slow going – I’m working on day 9 at the moment, and there’s still another 5 days to go!

It’s not exactly chilly in our little cottage, but walking the dog has chilled me to the bone, even though I was fully togged up for the weather – thick coat, woolly hat and a pair of gloves.  I make it a priority to split a few logs, fill the log basket and light the woodburner before lunchtime.

My tremor is a little calmer than it was yesterday, which is nice.  The only problematic symptom today is my voice, but since I only need to use it a couple of times (when I receive phone calls from my wife and my younger brother) then it really isn’t that much of a problem.  I count myself lucky!
