For me the sun was shining managed a lovely walk. While walking saw a squirrel and lots of butterflies and birds. Stopped to chat to several people as the sun brought more people outdoors and it felt like spring is finally getting here.

I bought myself a terracotta pot with side gaps in which to plant my strawberries.

Getting my grass cut before the deluge that is promised!

I could smell the grass being cut as I walked past a man clearing a grass verge. It smelt so good and made me feel spring is here at last.

I'm feeling better. Had some weird bug which made me feel rotten. But it seems to be gone.

Mammogram - just a routine check - in Morrisons carpark. All done and dusted in 10 minutes so I was finished and on my way home before my actual appointment time.

And it didn't rain until after i got back home. Marvellous!

I managed to mop my hall.
Its about the best I can do today, so it's better than the last three weeks. blush

I met my friend for lunch (and cake), and had a good catch-up for 4 hours

I made some bread. Made a cup of tea and a slice of buttered bread bliss.

Knowing that this view is only ten minutes away from me. Total reset since moving. Absolute bliss. Highly recommended!

I got my hearing aid back. It had been lost in the post by the carrying company so a new one had to be made. I've misssed it.

A trip to the theatre - "The Mousetrap" - really enjoyed it.

Debussy was playing on my local classical radio program while I made dinner , just a simple
Breakfast for dinner tonight but the music was delightful

It was yesterday, but a) the rain stopped and the sun came out, so I was able to walk the 15 minutes to the post office, and b) on the way I passed a glorious mass of grape hyacinths.

The sun is shining and I’m off for a walk with the dogs.😊

I’m another who can be made to smile seeing birds in the garden.
Today it was a small flock of goldfinches squabbling as they landed in the Rowan tree to wait for the sunflower seeds to be put out. No sunshine though.

Received a face time call from all of my grandchildren who have met for a few days. It is rare they are all together as they live opposite ends of the country.
