    Happy that I finally unblocked the kitchen sink. A great glugging ensued..

    Still dry and sunny-ish...door wide open..

    Just got an email from a cousin in Canada with an attached photo I hadn't seen before of my parents in the 1930s.

    I'm loving the trend of cat pictures on this thread! I'm always getting mocked for loving cats so much but not on here.

    Grace your cats are gorgeous!

    TH it's Friday and I'm going to have a takeaway because I'm finally feeling better and well enough to eat.

    Filmmaking started today. Can't wait to criticise my school and promote independent learning in my short film.

    My sister just told me that she brings an animal bar or freddo out with her on a night out in case she gets peckish on the dance floor. This is the best thing I've ever heard!

    That is genius!!! I'm making a note of that plan...

    My TH is that my friend made her boyfriend drive 40 minutes out to my house with a delivery of soup, alovera tissues, lemons and (I kid you not) a pre flattened bottle of coke because I am feeling a bit under the weather. I tell her she wrecks my head with her mother hen tendencies but I would often be a whole lot worse off without her!

    I smell a freddo revolution coming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,700 ✭✭✭Mountainsandh


    TH when I'm cosy in my bed, watching something on the laptop or sleeping, I always have a little warm doggy body to reach out to. Love the big sighs of satisfaction he gives too.

    edit : I should say he's bichon x shih tzu, and he's so soft and fluffy, he's so fluffy I'm gonna diiiiiiiie.

    What have I started?! I still can't stop laughing at the thought of her munching through a freddo on the dance floor!

    TH - my takeaway was so delicious and had a great chat with my other sister and my cousin!

    These long evenings are wonderful. I was outside painting until well after 7 pm. It's nice to have that fresh air tiredness. Tomorrow, more painting. I can't bend down to paint, it will set off the reflux, but I'll get a cushion and sit on the ground. Where there's a will there's a way!

    Another TH, tidied up my freezer and found lovely stuff. Scones, shepard's pie, biscuits, casseroles, I can live for ages without cooking.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,126 ✭✭✭misstearheus

    What a beautiful morning. Calm air, blue skies, sunshine and birdsong. If you haven't been out yet, go and make the most of it.

    I was looking at some photos of the trees in the garden I took last year - we're a good three weeks behind, this year, perhaps even a moon.

    Not spring here in my grey blanket cloud still. Not a hint of blue, nothing.

    But TH that it's dry at least, going to buy the mini hedge trimmer in Lidl today (hopefully they still have it) and will trim a little box hedge I have meant to shape in years. Would love to have it really nicely shaped like I see in a lot of other people's gardens.
    Also might even get to clean up a flower bed.

    We have cloudy grey mist here in the ironically named sunny south east!

    But the birds are singing and I even saw some bumble bees bumbling around. Not many flowers for them yet, but I hope the heathers in my garden that survived the snow will keep them going

    I was given a lovely tree as a present last year and it should be in full blossom by now but while there's a hint of white they are stubbornly staying tightly furled.

    Chilly here and cloudy and wind rising audibly... dog racing as always at the back. nose to the ground after every critter that has been that way since she was last out.. scent hound..

    If you have them saved on your computer or your phone and they aren't too big, you can attach them here directly using the paperclip icon.

    Rang yes to query an issue with my health insurance, simple enough to rectify and NO eons wait on the phone to get corrected. Gone to be reassessed, should be sorted by next week. Reception in the Dr's where really helpful too. The whole thing took 20 mins to sort.

    The fact that in building a sunroom outside their house, my parents have created a hot room, which means I can air a lot of clothes out of sight at the same time.

    It's the small things that make me happy today.

    I went for a walk around a field, and by the hedge I crossed paths with a young hare who promptly hopped away. They're beautiful! :)

    Aww. We have hares here but only so far seen the north of one going south. No rabbits as the ground is too hard to burrow.. oh and a cat sized rat ran across in front of the minibus one day
