Yesterday I had a lovely morning walk over the fields. It has been wet but they have improved the drainage and the ground has dried enough for the current rain to soak away a bit so, except for the odd place, the ground was dry enough. After preparing and eating lunch I then did some tidying, checked my plants then organised my art things a bit.

Today included a lot of cleaning, but we just hadn't had time most of the week. Got it done, though, in time for Shabbat rest!
Kids are home unexpectedly this weekend, so this evening will be more like a regular weekday and not as full of TV - I tend to turn it on earlier on Fridays when I'm on my own, but it's fun to catch up on shows I didn't fit in during the week.

I've had my heavenly daily shower: I used soap and shower gel and washed my hair with apple shampoo. I also used a Herbal Essences Hair Mask. I feel all cleansed and refreshed.
I am now making myself a cup of tea and listening to the radio.
I have had my Saturday pampering, but not before re-potting a few plants and mowing the lawn. I thought that I would make the most of the good weather while we have it. It's also nicer to the mower as it's old and tired. Better done before the grass gets long.
Hubby got caught up in a call so I just had a slice of toast while waiting for him to go to lunch with me.
My husband is very interested in my new job, like he normally is, so he would like to attend every event at the school. Tonight, we will attend a concert played by the student orchestra (fundraising). Next weekend, we will attend a Mother and Son fashion show (fundraising event).

We spent yesterday dodging horrendous downpours and getting the new fence up or at least part of it, it's gone a bit slower than we expected because of the rain.

Today was supposed to be paint the fence posts day, but rain stops play.

I got out for a walk early today, then did some baking. After a break, I bought groceries and then it was lunch! Had a phone call after that, then some videos with the kids (during which time I also managed to get a few pieces in place for the puzzle we're doing).
Up next is supper, then I'll probably watch a bit of TV tonight and decide what book I should read next.
I woke up during the night and paid a vist to the loo. Standing on the landing I noticed a funny smell. Slightly concerned but not being able to find the source I went back to bed. This morning I awoke and when I went downstairs I was relieved to find that the heater in the hallway had been inadvertently switched on as a stack of puzzles and books by the switch had been pushed into it. The heater only comes on overnight and has not been used for a few years so the smell was the dust being heated. The heater controls were on low, as they are kept when out of use, so there was no real danger or large electricity use. At least I know it still works

An exciting Bank Holiday Weekend:
I went out on Sunday evening with family to celebrate my dad's birthday. The meal was delicious and everyone had fun. There was lots of talk and laughter.
This Monday I had lunch out with my sister and a friend. It was a pleasant lunch and enjoyable company. We then went to my local cafe where I paid for tea and a snack to share with my friend. Her son and grandson then turned up at the cafe and we chatted with them. Sadly it was soon to leave but everyone enjoyed themselves!
