5 OS Pleasures in your Day Today part 2

[Deleted User]

1) Zebra at breakfast today stating categorically he didn't like CORN CRAKES! then trying cornflakes for the first time and asking for more!!!

2) Morning at the zoo, beautiful weather, all the animals out in their enclosures, lovely lunch at the cafeteria, Zebra walked all the way round and no complaints or asking to be carried, FAB!

3) Lovely Cookie walk with Sue and Charlie retriever when we got back home, weather warm and still beautiful.

4) Found the very first Forsythia bush with open flowers on as we walked.

5) Little Orley who is such a laid back boy absolutely zapped and fast, oh so fast asleep in his rocking chair wrapped up in a blanket next to his Opa.

Clearly being That Sort Of Day - second mention of chamomile tea in half an hour from an unrelated source. (Does it Work, or is it the displacement/placebo effect of just paying attention to Something Else?)[/QUOTE]

I swear by camomile tea, and well swear less with it. I happened to find the Twinings tea is on offer 80 for 1.99 in H.Bargains yesterday. and nabbed for. I have a few camomile teas a day.:rotfl:

I have tried other makes - versions but Twinings is the one for me.

1. Chuffed to see 2 new young kestrals on the way to work.

2. Trip to the isles, including the littlest ones planned and booked for community consultations. I adore working on our wee islands.

3. Work is a pleasure (sometimes..) very pleased how things are progressing and we've just taken on our first modern apprentice and graduate intern. Collegue did mention, it'll be like having kids again! Bring it on!

4. Slept poorly but made up a bag of yummy things to get my energy going including lots of lovely fruit with yogurt, salad, crudit!s and tasty hard boiled eggs. I've really enjoyed my work munching today, especially since I made the effort to take proper cutlery, linen and melamine plates!

5. Car in garage for mot and a few more repairs than I thought. Hence my kind boss said, work from home tomorrow, you've done great today. Blessed and so lucky to have such a wonderful boss X

1. Enjoying being away with DH. Relaxing time.

2. First couple of days were warm and sunny but now cold and windy.

3. Lovely flowers out.

4. Good food and wine. The local wine is very drinkable and cheap.

5. Met some nice people.

Some pleasure for the last few days,

The kindness and thoughtfulness of online friends.

The last of our shed stored apples in a pork casserole, tad wrinkly but still v tasty.

Hiding the dogs worming tablets in mini veggie sausages, the irony wasn't lost on me.

TIny violets growing in our lawn.

The smell and sight of the Mirabelle plum tree in blossom.

Waking up to a sunny morning yesterday, it certainly lifts the spirits.

Bedtime for me , bit of a dull headache .

Up & out early to drop DD2 off at school super early....I may have driven in my jammies. She's off to school camp.

Haircut & no greys! Hurrah! Beautiful box of orchids from girls at salon. So kind.

Met DD1 off her train after uni. Went to hardware store for some pansies. Been far too hot to plant them so shall do so in the morning.

Moved furniture on back porch ( with help of son ...spider alert) cleaned patio doors,then moved family room furniture around then it was far too hot to do anything else.

Baked potato & cheese for tea.

As you are aware, BoPsie does pop into this parish, so be careful. She says she never called BoP a beached whale! My hearing is perfect, so we will leave it at that.
I digged the way that & get all furred up. It made me ruffle my hairs in response, and for some reason this weak, they are rather curt and stubbly.
5 As reported yesterday, I chatted with the millwright yesterday. Barrel loads of oats are on their way. And good luck to others out there making their own hay as well. Oh, and those seeking better mills to work at, good luck.
4 A welcome to newbies. In case you are wandering, BoP writes ditties and nonsense. And I am not going to change now.
3 Checked the yard this morning and the buds on our tree of cherry are looking good. Should be in full bloom for easter. That is also a birthday for BoPsie. Also the bulbs are doing well. The badger, with BoPsie’s poppies in is showing signs of life.
2 Watched Arsenal last night.
I will say no more on the matter.
