I find fresh flowers wilt very quickly, this time of year. During to the central heating. So apart from growing Amaryllis in pots, I dont bother. I do miss the scent fromFreesia.

I love tulips when they reach that final stage. Like the final scene in a Dutch tragedy.

My son shared an essay written by my eleven year old granddaughter entitled ‘Does absence make the heart grow fonder’ she wrote ‘I see my Leicester gran everyday but I only see my Anglesey gran and Grandpa four times a year I love them all just the same because they are the most special people in my life after mum and dad.
I quite like my sister but I don’t think absence would make me fonder of my brother’.
Brother is 18 and a real tease.
Made me smile.

The sight of a vase of tulips in the sitting room. Although on their last legs, some standing, some drooping gracefully making a beautiful display.

A good morning Granny, out of the blue, message from both GDs ?

A badly driven lorry frightened me. But has driven on by without incident. I fully expected us or some other poor driver to be involved in an accident.
So that's a reason to count my blessings.

We have recently started having gd 15 months once a week. Yesterday she was not herself, probably a mixture of teething and a cough and cold. She was obviously tired but could not get to sleep in her buggy so I just cuddled her and sang a few songs. She nestled in my arms for an hour and was very refreshed when she woke up. It was bliss!

Poor little thing, hope it passes soon.
I'm jealous of you ?enjoy your time with her.

Waking up with Jack Russel curled up beside me under the duvet.

Yesterday and today……going out walking the dogs after being confined to the house with COVID.

One daughter rang on the way to work, the other called in on the way to work. Lovely start to the day.

My cup of tea brought to me in bed.

Had fun with a friend trying to see if she'll pass the number plate reading test for driving. We were just standing in a car park. No need to worry.

There was a nuthatch on the peanut feeder.

We found a venue for DD3's very small wedding party.

I came around the corner while doing chores this morning, and my little dog was lying in the middle of the kitchen floor on her back with her legs up, waiting for a belly-rub. She's so cute and funny sometimes.

Also the hummingbird was waiting for his food to be refilled, after we had a wicked wind storm yesterday.

One of my male friends painted my nails.
He does them far better than I can.
