Am I getting too predictable?
On the final day of the month I spherical up the frugal stuff, on the primary day of the month I discover some folklore bits, on Saturdays I look again on the week and on Sundays I’ve a day without work……….is my weblog getting too boring?
Oh effectively………keep on regardless…………………….
This week has passed by in a flash as a result of after a few uneventful weeks instantly all the things occurs. Out to a WI quiz and Over 60’s assembly (extra about each these subsequent week), Nanna responsibility x 2, procuring and I ought to have been selecting up about 16 reserved books from the cellular library van BUT had a telephone name to say the van would not be spherical……aaaagh……tragedy!
They missed final time because of the Queen’s Financial institution Vacation so there will probably be 12 weeks of reservations to gather in 4 weeks time! And I am ‘lowered’ to studying from my cabinets for even longer.
Fortunately I’ve the primary seven in The Isabel Dalhousie Sunday Philosophy Membership collection by Alexander McCall Smith sitting on my cabinets prepared for simply such an occasion. I attempted the primary a method, approach again simply to see if I preferred them after which picked up extra from charity retailers and so forth. Plus I’ve these books of nation writing from the boot-sale that I discussed a number of weeks in the past and a few hundred others that could possibly be re-read.
One other factor that has made the times fly previous is watching all of the tennis from Wimbledon, there have been some actually good matches and this 12 months they’ve all of the courts on the iplayer by way of purple button, so numerous selection to observe. Such a disgrace that some gamers have needed to pull out as a result of Covid – it is nonetheless round. To this point I’ve managed to keep away from watching Djokovic!
This Larger Noticed Woodpecker was good to see on the peanut feeder – first one since transferring right here though we noticed them on a regular basis on the smallholding and once in a while at Clay Cottage. He insisted on being around the again of the feeder so the picture is only a glimpse!
Do not forget that tin of very outdated Dwelling-Prepare dinner Marmalade that I picked up for 50p at a boot-sale? I opened it, nevertheless it was utterly strong and did not scent proper in any respect so it went within the compost bin. 8 years was undoubtedly too lengthy…..50p wasted.
Thursday night and I watched a brand new drama on Channel 4 – all about GCHQ and cyber crime disaster, politics and and COBR ( should say I might by no means actually thought of what that stands for however I assumed it was one thing extra attention-grabbing than Cupboard Workplace Briefing Room!)
This weekend there’s village storage/yard gross sales not distant on Saturday afternoon so I’ll go and look and extra tennis on TV to observe after all and for a purpose I did not hear, they’re enjoying on the center Sunday too – often solely used for tennis when the climate has been terrible.
This week I am grateful for
- Good household gathering at my Sister and Brother-in-Legal guidelines home regardless of the folks lacking as a result of Covid.
- At all times one thing to learn
- By no means being bored
Hope you all have a superb weekend, no matter your plans and I will be again Monday.
