(Sunday) It rained early this morning. so there was no question of me taking Alfie for his walk across Eaglestone Park, even though he kept staring at me when I was eating my breakfast as I watched BBC Breakfast at around 7.30. For a start, Alfie doesn't like getting wet, so there was no point in us both getting deluged. If you open the patio door to let him out into the garden, if it's raining, he won't go out unless he absolutely has to, he will poke his head out and decide that he won't bother, thank you very much.
I was determined to go to Shenley Christian Fellowship this morning. I needed to return, three weeks after my heart attack. Obviously I didn't want a repetition of that Sunday morning.
It's been raining most of the morning, but by the time I got to the hospital the sun was shining.
On arriving back home after visiting Carol, I found the house somewhat cold so I put my fleece on, the first time this autumn.
(Monday) As I've said in the last bit, it is considerably colder. Alfie was quite insistent that he was going to get his routine morning's walk across Eaglestone Park. I took it slowly, but I was fine, considering things. I put my red Regatta fleece on and we went out, with a weak sun shining, but there was a definite nip in the air as we walked down the path and into the open space where I usually let Alfie off. No chance that anyone will be allowed to sleep, with Alfie yapping and barking madly. We cut across the park, not going the full circuit. I rested briefly on one of the pieces of outdoor gym machinery, and texted Carol on my mobile, just to give a brief word or two about Alfie's walk with me. Not so much a walk for Alfie, as he runs madly about, but always comes back when I call him. He still must wonder where Carol is at the moment. He must have wondered where on earth I was when I was whisked off to the John Radcliffe in Oxford three weeks ago.
I got back to the house and suddenly found that it was really cold. I think it will be necessary to put on the central heating for the first time this autumn when I get back from the hospital late when I've seen Carol.
Later on Monday. It's quite sunny and pleasant now. The weather at this time of the year can be really strange. It may be cold one moment and then warm and sunny the next, although even with the sun out it can be deceptive, seeming warm but underlying it can be quite chilly.
