After the snow.

 We awoke to snow. No surprise there as it was biting cold last night.Very beautiful it all is. also quite dangerous for car travel. we did not need to go anywhere so we did not. Yeadon was as far as we got to buy a paint tray for my roller so I could paint the long suffering loft. I walked up to the old grave yard along the tarn path. Here are the snow pictures I took along the way today.

 The tarn park looked like it had been sugar iced with a sieve. Crossing the grass to the tarn...I was the first to walk that way. I soon discovered why too. Everyone else had walked along the paths as the field was water logged mud under the snow. that is why.

 The birds and Swans were all out and so was the model boat club members drinking tea in their warm hut.

 I took a few more pictures and then walked through the avenue of trees.

 When the sun appeared it was warm...believe it or not! however it was not warm enough to stop my hand freezing. I have to take off one glove to take photos......

 We spent the day decorating the loft, then settled down in front of the wood burner. outside it is cold cold cold. It is now time for Monza to go out and us humans go to bed so that we sleep.
simple idea? yes it is. the only problem here is that Lee does not sleep well, and this then accelerates his Rheumatoid Arthritis as he is tired. So....we have to work at it!!!

 Monza and Lee from this mornings doggy walk. we were not going to go out. Monza got so excited when he saw the snow in the garden we did take him for his walk. or rather he took us to be more honest about it.

 He kept sticking his nose in the snow and eating it....I think he likes it! The cold does not help Lee much either but the doggy walk has to be done.

Then suddenly it was lunch time .....then painting time and now it is bed time. The day is all but done and sleep beckons so we can do it all again tomorrow.

Up in the loft the carpet tiles are nearly finished and need the edges filling in with part tiles cutting......the skirting boards can go on......tomorrow is another day said Scarlett O'Hara.....it certainly is and it is the day that huge superking mattress gets upstairs!
