Getting my nails done

Actually feeling somewhat human and alive, this afternoon (as opposed to being in a zombie state, which would imply being human but not alive). I don't have mad amounts of energy, but it beats feeling narcoleptic.

The harvest of Tomatoes, Soft Fruits, Apples and Pears is fantastic this year. Potatoes and veg down due to the drought but still sufficient surplus to pass around there too.

Even had someone, today, offer to take the surplus apples, press them and bottle the juice for us.

Full swing with stewing apples for the freezer next week, with jam and chutney making ongoing.

Yet again, I love this time of year.

My last day in work today until Monday week & I'm off on a girly weekend away tomorrow with my friends.
Life is sweet

Bumped into someone I knew a million years ago when she was struggling with horrible symptoms of PCOS, most were very visible and her life was made hell by ppl comments on them.
Now she is past 'A special age' for women, the most obvious symptoms are gone and she looks and feels like a 30-year-old.

On that topic, I saw in the distance an ex-colleague I worked a lot with on a project a few years ago, I could see then she was well fed up of me . Today I spot she is pregnant and finally got a look at her partner who doesn't look at all, like my mental picture of him. He was surprisingly local looking for such a jet-setter. Th that she seems to be getting what she wants from life.

The plot thickens... emailed the shop and they boxed up the shopping as always but they saw no sign of the bus.... he will deliver it to the ferry himself tomorrow ...
I called the ferryman who could not understand what had happened ( he suggested drink!) so all being well will get the shopping tomorrow. Worst scenario is that the system collapses but we shall see.. I know they cannot unpack the boxes etc....happy it is in good hands and being sorted by good folk

Late evening sunshine and slack winds. Phlox blossom and late lilies sending a heady perfume through the garden.

Sitting out the back, small fire going, few mackerel fired in on it. Smell of a certain herb wafting over from neighbours garden. Happy but slightly jealous now too!!!

I'm on a slightly different route now but it means a lot more walking. I'm exhausted but i had a great sleep last night.

Also a pub I pass by has a crazy amount of flowers outside it. It looks like a giant hanging basket with a thatched roof!

northgirl · 31-08-2018 10:07AM

I thought I hadn't been paid but then it came through at 9am. Relief!!!!!!!

Happy that I have jarred more jam and am getting to grips with bags and bags of rose hips now,,,, happy too that I have only one decent sized pan ( and one small) as else would be gathering washing up in the sink....

Graces7 · 31-08-2018 11:05AM

HAPPY

email that the shopping is being delivered on the 11.30 boat..

NB there is no official 11.30 boat; this is sheer kindness!

This island is definitely a keeper!
