Good afternoon dear Bloggets. It’s cold outside and wet but I
am sitting in my lounge with my window open allowing cool air to cleanse the
house and pretend I am outside. Because that is what you do when it’s summer,
right? Sit outside. Not cuddle up to your jumper and crank on the heating…
Well we have been told that one person can come and stay in our house overnight now as
long as they are from the same bubble, so, only one person if your Mum for example
lives on her own, and of course she has been lonely, then you can go and see
her now and stay overnight. We are allowed one, bubble friend.
(Michael Bublé?)
I am joking, he has a family, he
isn’t alone…. But still, he is welcome here any time. Haha.
Still no treadmill. Shops are not
selling them on line and our shops are closed until Monday. Monday is the big
opening of shops in England. Then things may start to move. And if they do, I get
my treadmill, I too, may start to move.
It’s funny in the distance I can
hear an ice cream van. They come around our streets playing a tune to let
people know they are in the neighbourhood. Only thing is, they don’t hang
around so you have to run like mad to catch them or chase the van down the
street doing an impression of a hungry stray dog with too much energy.
My Hub has had really dry painful
eyes for weeks now but he can’t go to the local Doctors as it’s not really an
emergency and again with the queueing social distance thing. I really am not
sure what it is going to be like for those of us who are blind in the future. I
have a feeling that the 2-metre thing will be relaxed. It has to be for many
reasons, but then what will happen I guess over the next two weeks, we will
find out.
Our M&S are selling a large
bar of chocolate with peanuts and caramel, yum doesn’t that sound delicious?
I think they brought it out for Father’s
Day which is on the 21st of June.
I was reading today what it would
be like if there were no humans left on earth. I have often written what a
paradise it would be for the animals, but with the power stations and equipment
that we have in place to control floods and all of the damage we have caused
with plastics, granite and other items that are not biodegradable! Apparently, it
would take thousands of years to get to the stage where the animals would be
allowed to live in a perfect world for them but never will they be totally free
of human errors!
My lovely friend came with her
Husband today to take our dogs out for a very long walk even though it’s been
raining all day. It’s dull and cold but still bless them they came. So now my
dogs are shattered for the next 24 hours. They walk the legs off them. They will
sleep
Well I have done all of my on line
banking and housework for the day now I just need to prepare dinner for Hub
finishing work. I’m making him fish pie. With creamy mash potato with a cheese
topping. I’m going to make myself a vegetarian pasta. Tomorrow I think I will
make a stew. It’s that kind of weather.
Today has been a day of what I call
dirty jobs like washing out the bin, mopping the floors and cleaning the fridge
and cooker, not all in that order. I hate those jobs, well actually I love
mopping floors I know, I’m sad, but I love to make a clean shiny floor. All of
my floor’s downstairs are hard flooring and that is perfect for having two
dogs. I have vacuumed the floors down stairs three, yes, three times today. Hub
says I’m obsessed with my floors, but the three times I emptied the vacuum, it
was full. I have changed the filter too in my vacuum. I have gone from a Dyson
to a Shark and I much prefer the Shark. Though it is like having a workout when
using it as it’s heavy in comparison to the Dyson. We bought our Son and Sham
one like ours and they love theirs too though Sham has had a few casualties as
it lives up to its name, Shark. Once something is in its jaws, it tends to eat
it up!
Hub will finish work then have
dinner, then take his Friday night bath to mark the ending of a hard mentally
challenging week at work then we will have a cupper and cosy up to watch TV I think I am going to put on the
fire as it’s chilli but not cold enough to turn on the heating all night. And then
let the weekend begin. I hope the kids come to see us tomorrow and we may fit
in a walk with a friend and a chat on face time with our besties. What about
you, are you doing anything different? We are kind of restricted, aren’t we? We
can’t go to the movies or the theatre or for a meal yet, I hope one day soon,
this summer has all been a bad memory but one we shall all learn from!
Stay safe, remember to take your
hand gel wherever you go and wash your hands whenever you get the opportunity. From
Monday in England, if using public transport that includes taxi’s, people are
to wear face coverings and it’s mandatory. Thank God I don’t need to use any
public transport.
And just before I go some quotes.
To the world, you may be one
person, but to one person you may be the world. Take care of your thoughts when
you are alone and take care of your words when you are with people. Happy birthday to Paula and Sheldon and I wanted
to share a hug to let you know I care. Laters.
