So here we are Monday morning after the Paralympics. Life returns now to a more normal ebb and flow. I was grateful for my quiet Sunday spent mostly in bed. This week my new normal routines begin. I do like routine but I glance back over the summer with so many happy forever memories. Today the union jack bunting will come down in my bedroom (it has been up since the jubilee) and I will try to make nests for the winter! I do love the changing seasons and look forward to the colours of Autumn but I don't like the cold. It has been wonderful to have warm hands all summer long. I think there has only been 2 or 3 occasions when my fingers have turned white. So I will return to layers and scarves and gloves and blankets and hope for some sunny days.
