The weather is still horrible. Yesterday started off with fog and frost, then of course it rained all afternoon.
This morning it rained as the children went out to school, and now it is 3:30 and clouding over again to catch them coming home. It is almost dark already.
Today is Candlemas Day. People carry lighted candles in the church. I must light one here in the room for Delia. I'm waiting for the children to come home. Olivia is playing the piano.
February 3rd
Today is the feast day of St. Blaise. I went to Mass and had a blessing of the throat. I went to see Mrs Heneghan for a couple of hours. We had sandwiches and crumpets for tea. Agnes loves when someone visits. It gets very lonely on her own. Television is a boon for people like Agnes. She watches all the day time stuff.
Sunday, February 4th
Still pelting rain.
I wanted to go to the cemetery this morning to visit the folks but it is not possible. The ground is in a bad state of mud and water. I feel sad not being able to visit Delia. Mary and I went to see a headstone for her little plot. It can't be erected for several months yet. I'm going to Myles and Jacqui for dinner today. Being accompanied by Ana and Jacobo. It will be a nice day. Anne, Mary and Olivia will have a nice day on their own.
