5 OS pleasures in your day today - part 3

FunkyFairy

Mine for Sunday...

1. Having an afternoon nap with the sun shining on me.

2. Having a giggle watching silly videos on YouTube with youngest DS. I really treasure these times as he turns 18 on Friday.

3. having a video chat with my eldest DD. She has moved in with her BF as she is still working. I’m in the at risk group so has been done to protect me. I’ve not seen her for 5 weeks now...it’s so hard.

4. Trying a new cookie recipe and the family enjoying them. I’m going to have to stop baking as our waist lines have grown. I’m using baking as a way to cope with my anxiety.

5. having an empty washing basket, I’m up to date with all the washing. I didn’t know the basket had a bottom 🤣

Good morning all, pleasures for yesterday....

Little birds splashing in the solar fountain (it's a small dish type thing) in the back garden. They looked like they were enjoying themselves

Cake tin and biscuit tin filled up again (mocha squares in the cake tin and gingerbread flower shapes in the biscuit tin)

I cut the grass in the back garden rather than leave it until today in case it rained. It hasn't rained but the garden looked so much tidier. The grass wasn't even that long.

Zoom chat with school friends. I also managed to contact a school friend that I haven't heard from for a long time but other people were asking about her. She was very pleased to be asked to join our merry band. 

Online chat with best friend whilst computer gaming. It does us both good. 

Take care all of you

I'll gloss over it than ...

Here is the pie that BoP hand rubbed yesterday for his dinner! Rite tasty it was!

Then of curse, I had enuff had rubbed pastry to make six decent tarts of raspberry jam!

Nows theres bee some confusion as to whether you should put the jam into the tartys then cook, or put it inn afterwards. Theres is only one weigh to do Jam Tarts, jam inn then cook. Got it? Note the proper cheese not inn the refrigerator! And the pot of Marmite. Proper Foods!

Sundae afternoon naps, PK thats a sundae all day brakefest! Hope the snorkers were tasty! Mhags. Buzzard is 20 minutes a pound, covered in foil, foil off for the last twenty minutes at 180C Got it. Now do it again, properly this time!

Rite, now with your version of the Life of BoP!

Mes and BoPsie has glossed the other bedroom. Rite good it is. Done with proper non drip paint that the dog advertises. Always worth getting proper paint. Brushes washed off and ready for Wednesday, More later this weak.

BoP is on bonus foods this evening, because BoPsie was not bought up rite until she met BoP, I am havings the m,eatballs with the homemade chilli! Proper Food. Just bin on the plaza for lunch, with the usual furits, salad and sardines! Brakefest was just flakes of golden corn in ice cold milk!

Last nite we watched Turandot on the player of rays of blue thing. Was filmed in the Met, and we has seen it there as well. Wobbleades were drinked and cheese, from the the cheese dish aten.

Just doing some fotos for later inn the weak. More as we go on.

That is it for your version of the life of BoP
Keep your distance, keep safe and ...

pirate Pete I don’t ‘do’bones. It was chicken breasts that had rather too long in a different oven than usual. Dog had it for breakfast...after all he’s used to eating dry socks! 

Another day. Much like the other days, up early and very frosty walk with doggy. Over the field. Feet were freezing.
Home and generally I just potter around, sorted the recycling. Currently being stored in the garage as we have no council collection and I don’t want to put it in general waste if I can avoid. 

Laundry gets done. Thankful for all the dry weather we’ve had so far. 

Vacuuming done upstairs...this has been a work in progress and taken far longer than it should but done now. 

Emails and messages to friends and nice replies. So far everyone is okay. 

Walked to mums. She was in bed but got up for a while. Walked back. 

We had for the first time in ages clouds in the sky. Been beautiful blue skies for days and days. Was most interesting to see the different formations of cloud forming. 

Downstairs floors washed . Though I see someone with dusty size 11s has walked through the kitchen! Managed to watch a bit of Masterchef Australia but it kept cutting out so I cut my losses! 

Watched Outlander. In stages in between doing other things. 

Watched and listened to birds , bees and butterflies all doing their thing. Busy. Busy.

And a cheeky 6th - Mrpiano has just taught me the dominant scale of G major - he in Alabama, me in Dundee in my newly tidied music room. He wants to come home anyway, he's now off to write his history essay, and i'm off to practise Czerny. The perfect wind down after a very busy work day.

Sorry to hear about the hens Frith.

1 More gardening, before the rain comes.

2 Finished cleaning the caravan, it now at least has a coat or two of polish on it.

3 My back wasn’t feeling up to standing and cooking I should have just done an oven pizza but we did a contactless Deliveroo order from a local independent, it was very nice hopefully not too much risk.

4 Sat in the garden sun with a tea was all a bit serious but a pleasure.

5 Hoping that exercise was incorporated in the cleaning and gardening.
