Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

A dreary day


This mornings walk was on the paths and streets around the neighborhoods.  A very quiet morning and only saw a couple other people out.  It was dark and even when it lightened up a bit it was cloudy, damp and felt like rain, though it never did rain.  A couple of rabbits hopped by and I saw a deer with her two young one and then later two more deer.
I walked just over 6 miles.

Ken is home from work today sick with a cold.  When I got back from walking I made him tea and an English muffin and gave him breakfast in bed.  He was up by lunch time and feeling a bit better.

The weather has been dreary all day.  Just stayed home and got some more cleaning done, and then spent some time in the cozy corner knitting and finished reading a book. 

Not sure whats up for the rest of the day.
Enjoy your Wednesday.
Happyone :-)

It`s so sweet when you take well care of your husband when he is sick.

Sorry to hear that Ken isn't feeling well. I know with your loving care he will be better in no time.

Bet that Ken appreciated the TLC. I'm experiencing the first cold of the season, too, and it's been miserable. Hope that he feels better asap and that you manage to avoid it.

Gonna go back and take a closer look at the deer.

Like your photo of the wildlife! It sounds like a good day to read. Hope your husband is all better tomorrow.

It WAS a bit dreary today, wasn't it? Sorry Ken isn't feeling well; I hope he gets better soon.

Found a deer on our patio today about to much on my roses! Couldn't believe he came that close!

You must be a good nurse -- I hope Ken is feeling better by now.
