Flooding in Normandy.

It soon will be February and the hope of a dry Spring!

Today, we have a glimpse of Sun! We had only a few hours Sun since the beginning of of the year and even since October… we are having another storm, flooding an and thunderstorm.

This Monday is going to be to be very calm one ! as we say: “Little Monday , big week”!

On Saturday Grandpa was brave and took his dog for a walk, but… he forgot that with all that rain there was MUD! He decided to walk in a field lane and .. slided in the mud!

So, Grandma had to wash his trousers, coat and the dog coat as well.

Then, I had Maxime on Skype and he took grandma on the balcony ( the phone becomes grandma) and I follow him in the flat!we had a conversation together and he  told me that  he has been very surprised to have so much cold when he came for Christmas and did not like to wear a coat and hat on his head, he much better play in Burj park under the sun!

I also spoke to William. His mother sat him in the laundry basket 🧺 but Maxime was jealous, and wanted attention so he suddenly kicked into the basket to overturned the basket! The poor William had no harm but was 😟 scared 


 
Some streets in Brittany!
We have some problems also in Normandy . We would like to go away fora weekend, but the weather is not safe enough at the moment.
The picture is a street in Brittany.
I hope the wind and rain stops during the week, it’s been quite long! Staying safe inside!

  2. Our weather is just the opposite of yours. We have never had a January with so much sunshine and so little rain. We can't complain!! It seems like weather is doing strange things all over the world.

  3. That's some serious flooding! Granny Marigold and I have similar weather since she lives just north of me in British Columbia, Canada.
    I haven't been outside but I am enjoying the sunlight streaming through the windows.
    Maxime has gotten quite demanding of your attention, which is a wonderful thing, except for William. :-)
