5 OS pleasures in your day today - part 3

PaulieHerts

morning all 😊

We went furniture shopping on Monday. Ordered a dining table and chairs and think we’ve found the sofas we want.

Big surprise yesterday. My son was going to a machinery sale near Maldon and phoned me the day before to ask what I was doing yesterday. Expecting him to ask me a favour, he said would you like to go out for lunch? Yes please! So yesterday we went to the very nice Italian in the Main Street in Frinton. First time he has ever taken me out ( he’s 38!). Think someone must have said something to him, but very nice it was too. OH was back near the old home town, meeting a friend then going to the dentist, so it was just the two of us.
Hopefully the bungalow buying is moving along, solicitor said he is just waiting back for a report from the highways department ☹️ hope he doesn’t come up with an issue 🤞
We’re promised a glimpse of the sun today so maybe a look at the sea when we go shopping later.

Have a good day everyone 😊

Highdays

Morning all.

Grey here yet again, don't mind in January but would quite like some sunny days now.

Recent pleasures:

1. Little fella's birthday yesterday, he's now 11. Hard to imagine there was a time when he wasn't here.
2. Started walking with my lad again, just wasn't well enough in January. Taking it steady but hoping to be back up to speed soon. Enjoying the hour of 1:1 chatting though.
3. Some holiday plans are firming up nicely.
4. Ernie was kind to us this month, covered the cost of a couple of pairs of new shoes for us both and assorted other bits and pieces.
5. Out for a wander round an RHS garden today, there will be snowdrops for sure. Treat of lunch in the excellent restaurant too. Better get a move on!

Have a good day whatever you are up to.
