Grey

It’s a dark morning. I couldn’t really believe it was 8am when that time arrived. Last night it had been snowing. It didn’t seem to be sticking – the ground was too wet.

 I was under no illusion the world would be white when I got up today. It was just too dark. Snow magnifies any light & there just didn’t seem to be any light to magnify. I was right.

Instead we have damp drizzly rain - and greyness. All snow has been washed away.

The Fox’s health has picked up. Indeed he seems to be full of vigour. He’s been sitting down to tackle my benefit form. We went through a bit together on Saturday. He’s been working on it by himself yesterday. We’ll both probably try to get together again this afternoon.We’ll both be mightily relieved when the form is done & sent off.

We will be going out at some point. Our prescriptions are due to be collected. With the weather forecasts of more snow, we want to make sure we have all our medicines in case it gets too bad for us to risk venturing out for a few days.
