mhagster

Oooh almost dark but not quite at 5pm…days starting to stretch out. 

When I was up to see to dog this morning the hall was all lit with moonlight. And the kitchen too. It was quite lovely. Moon all bright and glowy.

Bathrooms cleaned. 

Getting a parking space straight away at hospital…unheard of , usually have to drive round and round. DD2 had an appointment. I sat in the car and people watched. 

Went for a celebratory lunch. Her beau met us there . Celebrating her new job! Good food and much laughter and chatter . Still stuffed! 

And hello doggy!

A mish mash from the past couple of days

1 A friend is coming over this week, the reason I say that is I wasn’t going to bother cleaning and then thought I need to so up and downstairs hoovered up.

2 Followed the meal planning, last night was spaghetti with pesto coating with some 70p lidl reduced chicken tikka pieces which was a nice change.

3 More chapters read.

4 Using up some bathroom bits, I had saved luxury bits gifted, why I “saved it” don’t know so using it and enjoying the luxury.

5 I had to order up some more fat balls as they are going quick, I also got some more bulbs planted.

6  I was getting a bit money antsy, but very mse I was working out ways to cover if we needed to and today it was sorted so happy.

7 More work enquiries.

8 The woodpecker on the bird feeder, lovely to see it again.

For yesterday,

Three weeks into a change of food for small dog and there is an obvious improvement in her energy levels, she will be 11 in May and it’s lovely to see her charging around like a pup.

Sorted out some admin and shredded paperwork.

Lunch out with pals which was lovely but one of my dear friends is having to face brain cancer again, she is stoically positive but the next few months will be tough ❤️

Will bank 4 & 5.

Sorry to hear about your friend, Lainey. 

Pleasures for today (Thursday)

1) A lie in.

2) Hens OK.

3) All housework done, except the washing, which is still rotating. 

4) Sandwiches for lunch, from last night's LO chicken and stuffing.

5) Went to Ludlow after lunch and tried to linger longer than my usual rush to the usual charity shops then back to the car. Walked round the outside of the castle (as far as is possible) and in some of the courts and squares plus the "new" jubilee garden and around the outside of the parish church. 

6) Tasty tea of kebabs with rice, broccoli and a garlic yoghurt sauce. 

7) Will do the virtual pub quiz shortly.

Good evening all, snug from hwb bed -

1. Knocked on a door.  Internationally-known potter answered!  Will next be firing in about 8 weeks and will indeed make Communion wine vessel.  & pics template fine, now em'd. 

2. After mid-week Communion, waited at rural roadside while  2 runners passed.  Young guys, beautiful legs!🤩😆😇  

3. You may not all know about TAICS😁👏.  (Frith and sons do, 😄)  This one's already been declared the all-time T'Internet F'rever Winner!

Horrendously glorious!

4. Nobly spent another few frozen hours up on The Gallops this arvo.  Connectivity calls for subbing/re-writes against clock etc.   Monserratlabis will know.

5. Sudden wish for a rare breakfasty supper indulged.  Involved e+b - and was scrummy!😋🥓🍳

Pleasures for today:
some jobs I don’t like doing got done this morning: shower glass cleaned and buffed, kitchen floor speed mopped and lounge windows cleaned in readiness for below.
Week 2 of stretch and relax class completed, although I feel like an old lady as I have to do most of the exercises seated as my back won’t allow me to lie on a hard wood floor at the moment ☹️
Hair cut and blow dried, looks better but unfortunately it won’t last and I still need to colour it.
Dunelm fitter came to replace my new lounge curtains which they had measured but made too short. Replacements look lovely and I have bought the the originals to hang in my bedroom, same style bay window but not so long, for a quarter of their price (MSE)!
Night all 💤
