Good morning Michael from Co Armagh, I’m up for a pit stop , it’s cold feeling here but I’ve no idea. If it’s raining , it’s pitch black. , even the solar lights have run out of steam
I’m going back to bed and hope for more sleep

Hoping for a good day for all

Good morning, it’s very dark here and the pavement looks slightly damp but it’s definitely not raining 🥺
I need to have a tidy before the cleaner comes this afternoon, she’s blitzing the living room today!
I have a phone call from the pharmacist sometime today and a practice nurse appointment to check my blood pressure which is, apparently, too low (nothing new). I suspect that the pharmacist will tell me to stop taking Ramapril 🤷🏼‍♀️
I’m praying for rain, I suspect that at least 60% of the plants in my garden are dead, it looks dreadful. I’ll ask my gardener to come and clear it in a couple of weeks. At least I know what plants are tough enough to survive drought.
At least it’s cooler at the moment, a blessing for most of us I imagine 🙏
Best wishes to you all x
