Just catching up, glad you had a lovely birthday. Your present ideas sound lovely.

Good evening RT, apple, earthie yep, a lovely pootle I haven't managed to get the shopping cleaned and away, but I've promised myself I'll do it over the weekend.  I'm definitely all about clearing up and putting away and making a homey nest for myself, because frankly it sounds like I'll be in it for a while (blue shrieky smiley).  Telling myself off a bit though, because I haven't been for a walk - its all very soggy out there, but a walk really helps me sleep.  Unless its a cloudburst, I really need to go walking and just get changed when I come in.
I bought the kindle version of the Barbara Kingsolver Flight Behaviour book today, feels good to have done that.   And gave my neighbour his card and his bottle of wine Also rediscovered a big Kilner jar, 2 litre thing, unused, hiding in plain sight - I was using it to store some very old flour, which I planned to use to make those cutesy ornaments, the salt dough things.  I changed my mind and since the flour is about six years old, I've thrown it away - don't shoot me!  I'll put the jar through the dw, and use it to store *useful* flour, which is still sitting in its 16kg sack upstairs

Does a 2 litre jar hold 16kg of flour??? Is it a magic jar...???

Thanks beanie  
Apple, norty you there are other jars   including a couple of other smaller Kilner, and some supermarket jars that held 900g of beetroot  
Computer has done me in - I wasn't closing it down, just putting it to sleep each night, while I catch up on editing bookmarks and making notes on a blog I'm using for The Novel ... but I moved the mouse in the wrong way, and I accidentally shut the browser.  Distraught
Bedfordshire, here I come ...

Nope, absolutely terrible      awake till after 3, very unusual for me.  Definitely going to get the blood pumping so I can sleep properly tonight   And since the streets are so busy at the weekend, that means gardening of some description ... my sister thinks I might benefit from skipping using the spare cord I have for the washing line, but I think not     though if the sky clears as it gets dark, I'll be off out for the Conjunction.

I think skipping is a great idea. I did a bit during lockdown 1. You can Do it anywhere and it’s free.

Oops, I missed your birthday, I do apologise! Happy birthday! Sorry to hear you had a rubbishy sleep. I was useless yesterday after a disturbed night, had some very realistic and odd dreams and was awake for a couple of hours from 4am, urgh. Fortunately slept right through last night though - hope you do the same tonight!

What's on the cards for today in the garden? I do lovely to hear your specific descriptions of what you're doing Always reminds me that a little bit, done regularly, adds up to a lot, which I think is a very important lesson for all of us!
