It has been a week of wonderful weather – the sun has shone, the skies have been blue and, during the day, the temperatures have crept up. Today has, perhaps, been best of all, and after a morning pottering outside (and washing the cars!) this afternoon it was warm enough to sit outside for an hour or so, all enhanced by the beautiful yellow daffodils blooming proud in all areas of the garden.
My calf muscle has been feeling better, and this morning I braved a run. Having done little running since Christmas, the 5K I covered was a bit tough, but most importantly my legs held up! Now (and to coincide with the improving weather, although next week is set to turn chilly again) to get back into my stride and run more regularly.
On Monday the carpet fitters came and laid the carpet on the stairs – it looks good and feels good underfoot, to!
Dad is back home from hospital (came out on Monday) and seems to be making a good recovery.
