Weekend Summary

 

 
The only (substitute for) "spring flowers" I have to show so far are the African Violets on the window sill in my kitchen. The weekend was rainy, grey and partly also quite windy. My memory is already a bit blurry about the order of things, but one morning when I got up (I think it must have been on Saturday) I found that during the night, the wind had moved the wooden bench on my balcony, which all winter has stood patiently still against the wall beneath my living room window, wrapped in a plastic tarp. Now it suddenly stood across the floor...! I managed to move it to a corner and secured it (I hope) with an extra strap to the railing there. I can only hope that the wind playing with it didn't wake and frighten any neighbours in the middle of the night. (It did not wake me, but my bedroom is on the opposite side of the apartment...)
 
I think I stayed in all Friday because of rain and wind. On Saturday I managed a short and pretty much rain-free walk to the nearest corner shop to buy some bananas. Sunday was a bit better but still grey. I was out walking for about half an hour, using both walking poles, but did not go very far from home, and did not take any photos. And today has been an indoors day again, with no more exciting activity than doing laundry... 
 
Waiting to see what the sky looks like tomorrow before I decide if perhaps that may be a good day to try and somehow get myself into town for an errand or two again. (Got a message from the photography shop on Friday, that the photos I wanted transferred from old slides to a USB stick are waiting for me...)
