I had fun yesterday...I did some indoor gardening. I bought some plants for my bottle garden, but ended up with too many. So then I had to find another pot/bowl for the poor plant that didn't make the bottle. So it all worked out well in the end, and I loved getting my hands dirty.… Continue reading Green Fingers?

Testing Times
The last week has been somewhat challenging. I've been ill with a cough and cold...then on Thursday I fell down the stairs and think I broke at least one toe (its Monday today and I still can't walk properly lol)...and then somewhere amongst all that I broke a tooth (I don't even know what day… Continue reading Testing Times
Counting Your Blessings
My brain is completely shot to pieces. I just don't seem to be able to focus on much right now. The only thing I seem capable of is listening to Podcasts, reading non fiction and drinking tea...lots of tea...oh, and eating rubbish lol...I can feel my anxiety levels rising on a daily basis! I know… Continue reading Counting Your Blessings
Keep Calm
I really struggled trying to come up with a title for this post, and the content. So far i've been trying to ignore whats going on in the world. I've been trying to keep calm and carry on. But its becoming increasingly difficult. Covid-19 is affecting all of us. On a personal level our business… Continue reading Keep Calm
Writing With A View
I'm loving the lighter evenings we have now. It means that when I do get the opportunity to get out and do some writing, I can sit by a window and enjoy the view. Yesterday afternoon I sat in the Zest Bar of The Tudor Park Hotel, a mile from my house, for a writing… Continue reading Writing With A View
The Adventures We’ll Have

Not because we didn't want to, but having 3 dogs, all wet and muddy in a space thats 23… Continue reading The Adventures We’ll Have
Fresh Flowers
I love fresh flowers, especially in the winter when its grey and miserable outside. I haven't had any indoors for a while so yesterday I treated myself to a bunch of white tulips, one of my favourites (along with white & red roses). Then this morning my grandson bought me another bunch! So now I… Continue reading Fresh Flowers
Daydreaming Fuelled by Caffeine
Yesterday I had to run some errands (order a carpet and buy a Birthday cake for my grandson). So on the way home I stopped off at Costa for a large skinny latte and some contemplation (its ok, the Puggies were with their dog-sitter). I took my notebooks to do some writing but ended up… Continue reading Daydreaming Fuelled by Caffeine
My Feathered Friends
I've always fed the birds (and the foxes) no matter where we've lived. But it used to be Starlings, Sparrows and the odd Collared Dove. But since we've lived here our regular garden visitors are (on top of the ones above) Robins, various Tits, Jays, Woodpeckers, a whole family of Magpies, Ravens (I'm sure they're… Continue reading My Feathered Friends
