  • Making Good Progress

    I made good progress today on the ceiling panels and I believe I can feel a difference already! I only have to go around the edges, which, to be honest, are the most tricky as I can’t reach some parts because they are over the stairs and I don’t have special ladders. I have a…

    Today began with me waking with a start. I slept well, mainly due to my working on the ceiling panels which absolutely knocked me out. It made me realise that I’m not as fit as I should be! I never set my alarm at the weekend. I believe that I should wake up naturally so…

    I should call this blog what I do after work! This, as some of you may know, is because I work every day. Today, after work, I went down to my garden and weeded for a short time. My main purpose of going into my garden was to fetch my step ladders. I wanted to…

  • An Afternoon Out!

    I’m rather partial to a day out, an opportunity to change my routine, so I jumped at the chance of going to the nearest city. Work as usual at first but I took the afternoon off. After a quick business lunch at, would you believe, the cafe of the local large supermarket, I went of…

    I almost forgot to write my blog this evening. I’ve had such a quiet day. There was no rolling out of bed and rushing out a bit late. It’s all been very leisurely. I worked more than I wanted to but I also got to clean my art / craft studio which my son has…

    I started today by rolling out of bed after having slept through my first alarm! It was a scramble but these things happen. After a relaxed breakfast in the nearest town of an apple tart and two, yes two cappuccini, I felt ready to go! I dropped a breakfast off where my son works, at…

  • New Glasses Buying Online

    I took delivery of two pairs of glasses today. Both ordered on line and both not only from different online stores but different countries. Neither of them either my native country or where I live. I went for an eye test a couple of weeks ago. I have needed to go for about six months…

    Today started with a warm calm feel to it. When it’s like this I will go onto my balcony and take in the view. Silence is never really silent. We don’t get much traffic noise up here, I guess it depends on which way the wind is blowing. Do you ever see a clip of…

  • Sunday, Family Lunch And Gardening!

    Today started quietly. I slept later and when I did get up, it was straight into work. Yay, there wasn’t much for me but I do get some at midday so I can’t really start anything else until it has come in and been finished! Sundays mean family lunch. Well every day is family lunch…

    Quick post today, I’m just off to bed! The day began, as ever, with work. Then a quick dash out to collect my missing sd card and to get a couple of things to get us over the weekend. A rush back for lunch then setting up my new camera. A neighbour was burning garden…
