This week we returned to a mild winter or a very cool spring, we all could keep our autumn/winter clothes in the wardrobe. I made my walking exercises by haunting the castles corridors, but as it was daylight, the ghosts were still sleeping. As each morning I said hello to my friend Pauline, who remains still in her room she feels a bit week after 2 pneumonia !
In the afternoon we were all there for a new game called the "Question Box". Unfortunately the questions were very difficult in form of a charade. At first I didn't know what that was, then I understood it but I only found one word, a kite, and another one also found a word, it really was too difficult. Even our animator Kim gave up ! But we were all happy to be together have our coffee and chat and complained about the weather ! Outside it was grey like a mouse.
When as activity there is mass, I go shopping, there are not many who go, mostly the very old once, as they had done it since their childhood. There was such a lot of traffic, that I quickly bought my fruits and then went to my friend Solange who has lost her husband one month ago. Fortunately she also hides her feelings behind a lot of humor and we had a nice afternoon. It was past 5 pm when I came back and shortly after the supper arrived. Far too early for me.
When I went down to join the others for our afternoon game, I crossed the restaurant and noticed that each table had a beautiful little flower pot.
It was cool but the sun was shining and we could play outside, but we all had to wear a cardigan. We all hope that for the weekend the temperatures will raise a bit !
and the ivy grew even higher over during spring.

I'm so happy that you can still drive and your 'Castle' must have parking?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your weather has been a bit milder. We've had a mix of sunshine and rain here--like life, I guess. The games sound like a lot of fun. I love the ivy covering the walls.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog
ReplyDeletePlease read my post
ReplyDeleteEven if it is way too cool, I would rather pull on a sweater or jacket than cook in hot weather. I must be the opposite of you!!
ReplyDeleteThat ivy sure grew! Your patio is a nice outdoor space in which to relax or have a sunbath...maybe once in a while...
Hope you get some nicer weather.
Ah...cooler weather sounds delightful. We are in a heat wave and not even officially summer yet. But grateful to be here and standing. Take care. Your photos are the very best.
