No Need For Stoicism.

Beautiful sunshine again today, it has got much colder, after the unexpected 2 weeks of extra summer, which was gorgeous, I think a lovely surprise for all of us.

It was nice to be able to go out then, in a tee-shirt and not have to bother with sweaters and winter jackets scarf and hat.

In the winter we have to add 30 minutes onto our journey time as that’s how long it takes Richie to put my jacket etc on me, so I can cope with the cold weather.

The temperature has dropped noticeably this last week, just over a week before blankets were still ok, now it’s colder.

It has quickly become cold enough for duvet weather and cold enough for blankets as well and this usually doesn’t happen until January.

Right now it seems like this winter will be extra cold, especially as there have been clues, such as no mosquitoes since beginning of September and now extra blankets on the bed.

I look forward to seeing snow again this year, shame I have not got tractor wheels for my wheelchair which could cope with snow and sand at the beach in the summer.

Today I have been taking it very easy, it’s very enjoyable sitting in my wheelchair without any pain or discomfort, and of course that’s all thanks to Rick, the engineer from Welzorg.

So glad that the wheelchair arm supports were lowered on Friday, and so relieved that I didn’t have to be stoical and wait bravely until Monday for a resolution.
