Sun, whales and a walk

Thursday, December 17, 2020

The sun came back today after being “away” for a long time. I haven’t heard the mouse singing but had it been in the right spot I’m sure it would have been.

While we were having lunch we were watching a couple, maybe three, humpback whales. A couple of the spouts were really close in and close together; the other was much further out. We never actually saw two spouts at the same time on the close in ones so we’re not sure. I guess they were enjoying the sun too.

Pat had an update from the doctor today and he says Pat should be walking half an hour a day. I didn’t need a call from the doctor to know that I should be doing that as well. After lunch we went out and walked the sea walk; there were lots of people out enjoying the sun as well.

I finished my hat last night (pictured here with another ball of yarn as stuffing). It is a very soft bamboo yarn and I love the swirls in the pattern. Tonight I’ll start an afghan; I’m hoping it will use up the yarn more quickly than the hats I’ve been making. We’re watching a show with sub-titles so I may not be able to crochet as we watch.
