Hi there. Back in for another week! Did the usual round of breakfasts and was rewarded with some robins and blue tits at the tables - the other birds were very quiet today, I only saw one blackbird.
S&S kitchen and bathroom, and just a general tidy through as we are not too bad after cleaning before our visitors arrived on Sat, and a good sort out of corners etc yesterday. We then walked next door's dogs for an hour, then managed a quick toastie before work! The time flew there and I've now chilled out with a mug of tea and am currently re-heating a home cooked meal with loads of veg for our meal. I'm so hungry now!!
Thanks for the lists, Dusty, and Natty for last weeks, also, 'Happy Birthday' to Natty, I hope you're having a great day!
Many thanks, too, for those lovely fly ladies who sent me kind wishes and greetings for mine last week.
Good health vibes for all those poorly fly people - epecially Lady Liberty - and good vibes too for Lame Wolf - your doggie visitors must love coming to you!
Good wishes all round, bye for now, R x0 -
