My lovely husband was a very romantic and we always kept today and our wedding anniversary and also the anniversary of our first day together. I always miss him but today they had the wonderful duet from the Pearl Fishers , which had me in tears as it was a special piece for us. I still have many little bits of paper I keep where he used to put me valentines in the guardian, and the yorkshire post etc. Struggling with painful back etc but did manage to get to swimming thank goodness, as it does give me a bit of relief and helps me loosen up a bit. Met a friend at swimming and we went to have a little lunch at a garden centre not far away, Well spaced out places, chairs with arms which allow me to get up and down and good coffee. So have made the best that I can, now need to go and get the washing in, including the swimming towel before I forget it and leave it out overnight by mistake. Still a bit light which is cheering and just seen the grey squirrel run along the fence top and up into the trees. Need to get ahead a bit with some housekeeping and ironing as am out quite a bit this week and it is the meeting for the volunteers for the Swaledale Festival on wednesday. It is like a child in a sweety shop! You want to volunteer for 2 things on at the same time and look forward to all the lovely goodies of music and people being able to meet and share wonderful music again. fingers crossed that it all goes ahead
