Marvellous to know you’re still alive and kicking Angie! When I see your posts and photographs it is like a breath of fresh air.
This morning I was sat listening to the broken fragments’ of ice washing back and forth on the edge of Stithians Lake when my hands experienced Angie’s Phenomenon! I think my heart decided that it would be easier not to pump blood to my fingertips and persuaded my brain to constrict my blood vessels. The resulting pain was soon cured with a flask of tea however my thoughts were with you and I hope that you are coping with the cold spell.
Hi Mike. Thank you. I have come to terms with it & am learning to cope now I know where I stand. Life will never be the same & that's hard to accept, but it could be worse! When I stand on the doorstep at dawn in this bitter weather, having put the food out for the birds who are waiting patiently for me to arrive & knowing that I can't stay & watch them for too long as I always did before, I feel grateful that I can snuggle back up & get warm again, unlike my birds. They have a much harder life & they just get on with the job in hand - survival! That's what it's all about. Hope to see you soon. Take care.
Hi Angie, good to see you've found the blog again, and what a great stonechat shot. Andy
ReplyDeleteThanks Andy, I quite like it too.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see you posting photos again Angie, I have enjoyed them all from the Starlings to the Stonechat and everything in between :)
