Good afternoon
Bloggets. I hope you are all well today? Well my morning has been very interesting
and I survived the two and a half hour trial which went very well. Time will
tell. But back safely and soundly.
I’m in my garden now catching some sun before it runs away
for the day. Right now it’s threatening to disappear. Just a threat though as
still popping through the clouds.
I can’t get internet out here, so not sure when I will get
this published, but sometime today as I have no intention of being out here more
than half an hour. I was just about to start to do some much needed work then
thought, no, stuff it. The work can wait for once. I’m going out. I am again,
waiting for a parcel but I don’t think it will come until tomorrow at the
earliest. Some clothes I sent for. It’s hilarious people’s reaction to me in
quotes skinny jeans…. Now they will fit me, so let’s get one thing clear. There
is no way on earth will the jeans be skinny. And for sure nothing that goes in
them will be skinny. I think they mean jeans that don’t flap around making me
look like some kind of wedding marquee. So they will be a little on the tight
side, and we all know where the unwanted flab has to go when one wears tight
jeans? Yep. One thinks a rather oversized top will be required.
Seriously, hub and teens reaction has been most amusing.
Teen kind of groaned and said the words. “No. Mum. Just no. It’s so wrong.”
Hub.
“Oh my God!”
hahahahahahehehehehehe.
I also bought a black t-shirt which reads. “Meet me in
Mexico.”
Didn’t know I was going there? Smile. What will they look
like? I wouldn’t know, well, not until I get them. I must say the descriptions
were quite good and when they weren’t, I went into reviews. As sometimes the length
of the sleeves are not spoken about you go into reviews and says things like
the sleeves were too long or having no sleeves are perfect for a sunny holiday.
I do own two tops without sleeves. Really. Not a good look. I haven’t quite got
school dinner lady arms, but there is something not quite right I’m Okay from
the elbow down, my arms are of a normal quantity, but above the elbow? Naha,
try to keep them covered, but hey, if I keep up teens toning techniques? Only
thing is, yesterday I went into the gym and tried to do the things he showed me…
Forgot them all. So ended up doing my own thing and the thing is, my arms didn’t
hurt at all, not in comparison to when teen took me through his treatment the
other day. So obviously I was doing something so very wrong.
I’m out tomorrow with Hub. We are going to our University. No,
not to be educated, but talk with the students about guide dogs. Last time I went
they were so lovely and very interested. It would be nice to get some
volunteers out of the day, but at least we can hope for is awareness. It’s a
long day though. Wagga will be perfect for it. Not sure how the little fella
will take to it because one of teens friends came in the other day and he
barked at him and ran away. Hahaha. Such a big bark, then he scarpered.
Fish tonight for the boys with healthy brown rice. Sounds
like my idea of food hell. One I don’t eat anything with a face, but never have
I eaten fish. Really, I don’t know how I’m as intelligent as I am? Hahaha.
Joking. Well they say fish makes you more intelligent. I have never ever been
able to stand the stuff. Tinned tuna I could cope with before I became a
vegetarian, but it had to be a certain kind. For me? Well, I’m going to make a
big salad with some hot bread from the oven. I had a nice wrap from a sandwich
shop for lunch full of something to be honest, not sure what? Not meat though. So
I can’t eat too much bread as already had my share of the day I simply love
bread.
It’s been a lovely day it’s our friend’s birthday. I, or
should I say, teen posted his gifts in one box last week. I received a phone
call from his wife telling me his parcel had not arrived. I panicked. As I
write the address on what we post. It’s a skill that sadly I’m getting worse
at. I used to remember hand writing and was good at keeping it straight, but
now I forget where I’m up to. And I know my hand writing isn’t as good. But I
got teen to re-read it and it was understandable. So it’s been six days. The scary
thing was, teen couldn’t remember posting it? Though we had a huge chat about
it. So then I was doubtful was it still in the cupboard at home? Then I remembered
more fully the conversation I had with teen and though he did not have any recollection
on the matter, I was sure I at least gave it to him, along with my card to pay
for the item.
Well, then I text my friend and asked him if he got the
parcel and not said anything to his wife? He replied, it came five minutes ago.
I called my friend who lives in the same house, she said he is on the drive in
his caravan, he must have taken the parcel but not told me. Hahaha. When you
have been married so long, communication has its challenges. Not sure why it
took so long though. But at least it came on his birthday.
Wow this sun has come back. It’s boiling. Can’t be out here
too much longer. Need some cream on. But need the sun as much. It is said that
we are going to have a heat wave this year? And, April world-wide is recorded
to be the hottest in history of the weather reports. Really? No one told little
Britain that.
Oh I opened my paintings last night from my friend. Gosh,
teen was well impressed. I’m so excited. She sent me the large painting the original
on canvas and it’s stunning then another print of another angel she painted,
but the print the angel has brown hair with streaks of blonde in it. My angel
has blonde hair. Same colour eyes though the most amazing blue. She is also
wearing a crown like a halo. That too has blue jewels in it. The brown haird
angel doesn’t have a crown. Teen prefers the brown hair angel. I prefer my
angel as that is how I see an angel. The fingers are there as an outline. I don’t
believe that angels have fingers. She has the most perfect skin I’m told. So
now I need a couple of frames. For the print I will get one from an ice shop
but the painting, I think I will get one to measure from a shop in our town. My
friend arty told me about it. Mind you, not sure how I will find it? May be if I
catch teen on a good kind day, I will get it with him? Picking the colour of
the frame is going to be difficult. For example, I have a huge and I mean huge
painting of a black and white tiger in my lounge. She has blue eyes. She is a
real tiger from a conservation park in the UK. Her frame is really thick black.
Stunning wood. But that kind of painting can get away with that. My angel has
to be more delicate. I would like a silver one to match the lights in the hall
way where I would like to put the picture. Our curtain rail is shiny silver
too. Door handles also chrome. Hub says that will look too modern for an angel.
But black wood will be too heavy or I could put it in my lounge and that will
be gold. But I wanted to make it stand out on its own. Not among other pictures
which are all gold apart from my tiger. Light switches are also chrome so what
to do? Hmm. I will decide when I go to the shop. Mind you, I think I will get a
shock when I price the frames up. But it’s such a painting that will last a
life time and one I will treasure. I hope one day, in my lifetime, to be able
to call my friend who painted it and tell her how much I love her work and describe
the details to her. One day, a girl can dream?
Okay, must dash now to work. My vacuum has just jumped out
of the cupboard and duster flew out of the window and landed on my lap top…
well, I have things to do like put away my winter jumpers. Already I have had a
dress rehearsal this year, in fact if I remember rightly, two dress rehearsals.
But it got so cold they had to come back out. This time they will stay away
until October. I hope. Well, they will I will make sure.
I also have to sort out the bottom of my robe. Oh I hate
those jobs. We have no where to put anything. May be some chucking out to do? Wherever
you are in the world be strong kind and open your minds to all possibilities. X
