Well it’s past the pumpkin hour and the house is so quiet.
My beautiful dog has finished her dream so, even she is hushed now after making
such sounds from her sleep. Some laughs earlier in the kitchen with Boy Wonder
and Shamrock. Doors all locked, I had to do Hubs jobs tonight, of filling the
dog food bin up and gosh, imagine this, so it’s a huge bag, and I lift it to
put in the dog bin still in its bag am I making sense? So, there I am lifting
his huge heavy bag trying to find the blooming opening of the bin to sit the
bag, in it. Well I kept missing it. I needed to feel where the hole was but had
no spare hands. Where is the octopus when I need one? But managed in the end. My
faithful dog by my side at that time, wishing, just wishing that I was going to
pour the full bag in her dish. And she would make a good impression of it too. Not
sure there would be much left if I gave her the choice of a constant pouring of
the dog food. Why does it have to smell so bad? I’m glad it’s biscuits and not
meat. As in a tin/can. And then for the recycling boxes. Oh, my, did I tell you
Hub and I were like the Chuckle brothers at the weekend. For those who are not
familiar with the Chuckle brothers, they are a comedy act two brothers who are
always moving stuff and their catch phrase is to me to you. Well they push and
pull just as we were doing this weekend, well, Hub didn’t know his own strength
and snapped the handle off. And the boxes, are still stuck together. Not sure
if they have swollen up with the rain? So, tonight was my Sons turn. My fit Son
who goes to the gym five times per week. Who is obsessed with a good body and
healthy living? My Son who is so very strong.
If anyone can bust boxes, oh, sorry, loosen boxes he can.
But he couldn’t.
So, I have had to put two boxes stuck. I am going to have to
get some washing up liquid and hot water to try to separate them. As right now,
they are like piggin dogs in heat.
My lovely man is away until tomorrow night. I know he was
working until eleven tonight too, as he had loads of paperwork to do. But he
had a nice meal after the office and before he started to work with his lap
top. First, he said he had fish & chips. Chips are fried potatoes. But then
he had a starter. Potato things with chicken in crumps, and spicy potatoes and
some other kind of potatoes, hahaha, and where was the veg? the salad? Anything
green would do? Well, talk about when the cat’s away the mouse shall play? Do you
know I hide his Peas still…? In his mash potatoes. It took me until last year
before I realised that it didn’t matter if I hid his Peas or not, he’s blind so
can’t see them, but I guess if I hide them in the mash, they are mixed in so he
may still eat them as he loves mash…. Well that is the theory. He would have
made a good cave man.
If he had been at home, it would have been a sweet potatoes
stew. I bet he’s glad he is away. Haha.
Yesterday was a beautiful day. It was so hot and sunny. I went
for a lovely long walk with my girl Friday, we walked at speed. Well, speed for
me. Just managing to take over the tortoise. Seriously, we walk at a healthy
speed and when I got back, I felt so good. I haven’t checked how many steps but
it has to be more than five thousand. And to some, that isn’t many, but to me
it’s four thousand more, then what I used to do. At the weekend we walked over
ten thousand. And two days last week six thousand per day, over two days. Next
week I’m starting running…
Hahahaha, noooooonooooo
my running days are so long gone. I used to love running in
fact I loved dancing and keeping fit, but it all went wrong when I was
eighteen. I was a fully-fledged housewife with duties for my ex Husband. Gosh, I
wonder who’s cleaning his house now? I can tell you, it will be clean, as my ex
liked a clean and tidy house and he was house-proud.
We crossed the dreaded road around here, the road where the council
won’t put a crossing on. But there is a crossing if you walk almost a mile up
the road, on a roundabout, very safe. Not!
If you can’t see, you
have to hear for when there are no cars, only on a roundabout there are always
cars, so it’s lethal. But, hey, they have a crossing up there, only trouble is,
that doesn’t beep or turn with the twizzly thing at the bottom, you know for
those who are deaf and blind, there is a screw like thing right at the bottom of the light box that you are
meant to hold and wait for it to turn, as you won’t be able to hear the beeping
or obviously, see the lights change?
So, thank goodness
for my girl Friday and that crossing is awful, it’s not straight across, but on
an angle.
Together we learned a new route too, I may try it out with
the Wagging one tomorrow. Just anxious I get lost, but hey, I have all day to
find my way home…
I have three poems to write tomorrow weddings coming up. And
a paper to prepare and present,, in a couple of weeks. I have a date with an
ironing board and the normal things like cooking for my family.
Oh my, Boy Wonder made his lunch tonight for tomorrow. I have
just looked at what he has put it in, it’s like a blooming suit case. I thought
once over the teen years, they slow down with their eating?
It’s not happening here. He had a cooked breakfast, then
took a hot made meal to work, then had a large cooked dinner went to the gym
and came back to cook again. His lunch for tomorrow and his supper as he is
always starving after the gym. He’s so lucky though as he has a fantastic physique.
Takes after his Mum
Stop it
Well he has the same hair and eye colour.
And that is where it stops. Hahaha. Oh, people say he has my
smile. Hmm. Why did I give that up?
OK, I’m so tired I’m getting delirious.
I shall close for now and wish you a good sleep tonight. But
before I go, I want to say to Jan, best wishes for later today and to Sheila,
you are super woman. To Terry thank you so much for the support and to my most
beautiful loyal Blogget Louise, my thoughts are with you today. Be strong.
Things are going to be OK and some days better. Life will sort itself out. I’m
praying for you.
With love.
