    Not so sunny here , but pleasantly warm with a breeze. Went past the farm near me and watched the horses being exercised. Spoke to a fellow walker who I see most days going the opposite way to me. We had a two metre two minute talk about the weather . 

    I am now going to do my ironing .

    I'm still putting off my ironing! Will do it for as long as I can. 
    Glad you had a nice walk. I didn't get out today, but will do tomorrow x

  • I'm glad you enjoyed your walk Sunshine, especially seeing the horse 🐎. I can't be bothered to do ironing if I'm not allowed to go anywhere 😂.

    Time is flying , work is crazy . I have logged off for the day . Did a 3 mile walk at lunchtime in the sun, thoroughly enjoyed it . Have sat outside for a coffee break and spoke to a neighbour . 

    I can't remember the last time I spent any money on anything that wasn't food shopping. Saving it up for when we are free to go out again and intend to have some days out. Of course that may be the winter ☹️. 
    The DGC are enjoying the weather in the garden, they show me their latest things when I FaceTime which is at least twice a day. My parents have a lovely garden so they are also enjoying that. It seems strange to have no plans for Easter but there is time for everything next year . 

    Enjoy the weather everyone.

    That's a good idea. I hadn't thought of doing that. How is it going? x

    Decided to jot down things as it's going to be part of history . I would like to be able to read back on it in the future. It's going well at the minute.

    It’s great that the weather is so good it lifts the spirits and that’s what we all need right now. I’ll be glad to have the long weekend to regroup. Work is busy for me too and about to get a whole lot busier.

    I’m pleased you’ve enjoyed your walk and working from home is going well. I’ve been a bit lost this week - but work have stopped sending us work as it’s officially the Easter holidays for most of us but some staff are still in for the children of the front line workers. I hadn’t realised how much doing that work had kept me grounded.....
    itsounds as if your gks are enjoying the lovely weather 👍

    I received Some drawings today from the DGC , priceless they are at the moment. 
    Work was very challenging today and I would be lying if I didn't say I am glad to be having a week away from it. 

    Plans for next week are some painting and some sorting out . Longer walks and putting my feet up. 
    The food shopping day tomorrow, got my parents list and mine . 
    That's it for today , not much to report.
