started the day with a morning walk…
it was chilly and the wind was a bit blustery…
not much new growth, but the snowdrops I saw the other day had multiplied;-)…
the ice is completely gone so the creek is running clear now…
looking forward to the trees leafing out;-)…

mail…
yesterday I received an envelope with a beautiful card and goodies in it…
another of my Advent All Year packages from my daughter…
a nice treat in this time of staying at home…
the card had a butterfly and flower on it and there were cute leaf stickers and two very cute camera paper clips inside…
thinking of where I am going to use those paper clips…
such a pleasant surprise…

this morning I decided to order groceries from Save-On-Foods, which I’ve done a few times…
usually the delivery happens the next day… the first open spots started on Saturday afternoon… apparently many people are using the delivery system;-)…
went to the Park for lunch with a couple of friends… it was very quiet… no one on the path, and they have replaced the usual menus with single sheets of paper which are discarded after being used… the tables have nothing on them and the few people there were seated quite a ways from one another…
as I was leaving I noticed the new Leaf construction is above the trees now… kind of exciting;-)…
I don’t think I will be going out for lunch after this as it is clear that older folks need to be staying at home, away from others…
tonight my BS group met by phone… we are so lucky that we have the technology to allow us to connect this way…
the new normal...
