Another Look

Introduction

Good Aftrnoon to all you lovely people at the Great WA Family, as always do so hope that you are all keeping both safe and well.

It has ben one of those funny weeks, things have either not been done, not done properly or left after starting.

This last sentance may seem both strange and almost contadictory, it probably is!!

The Last Few Days.

A bit of everything is one way of discussing what I have managed to do, and not do this week.

In parts of the garden it is obvious where I have been, the weather has both helped and hindered my efforts, it took me until almost collecting time for the compost bins to be filled!

Having said that I have already made a start on the bins for the next collection, this has made a couple of areas look almost really good, and it has given me more ideas to improve the general look of the site. Especially as I want to plant some of my perennials when I return from my next holiday, they could go in now, but if it is very dry I could end up losing them all, so think it is wiser to leave them in trays that can have a decent level of water in them.

Did have some trailing pansies arrive this week, will plant them when I get back.

Regarding the business, not quite done what I wanted, but it has not been totally ignored either.

Been able to look at some of the projects which I have started, in a couple of cases have actually started some new content, but I do have a lot of work to do, in many cases it is a question of the energy to do the task in hand, it is I am afraid been another one of those cannot be bothered weeks on some days.

I did go to my school friends funeral, another school pal was there, the strange thing was that the three of us all ran for the school cross country team. David said that he was sorry to see me on a stick, not as sorry as I was to see him in a wheel chair. Yvonne's cousin was there she was at the funeral of Yvonne, but did not like to push herself forward to say who she was. However whe will pay me a visit to work on the family tree, I gave her what I had sometime ago.

This morning I attended the Battle of Britan service organised by the local Air Training Corps, it was a very nice service, the cadets very smart as usual.

Delighted to say that I go on holiday a week today, I certainly need it, as I have had a couple of blips this week, last night whilst I was watching the Last night of the Proms, I had a couple of teary moments but when they played "Auld Lang Syne" I totally lost it, just sbbed and sbbed, as I realised that Yvonne and I would never agian share a New Year.

Pleased to say that it did me a lot of good, relieving a lot of tension, as I have had one of those weeks.

The washing machine is causing me great grief, all caused by the suppliers, but I will deal with that when I can!! I do not mind washing by hand, as long as I do not let it build up too much.

The Next Few Days

I do not really have a lot of spare days this week, weather permitting I have four days of cricket, then Friday I will need to prepare for my holiday, as Friday I am out all day football then a dining in night at the ATC, more dressing up!, having said that I do enjoy wearing my dinner jacket, think that it ensures that all the men dress smartly, OK call me old fashioned.

Do have ironing to do as well as packing, also some washing, but I do not care, I am really looking forward to my break, just hope that the weather is kind to me in Torquay.

Which makes me realise that the blog could be done on Thursday, then it will be guess work, as my email is still not good.

If time permits will try to do some more gardening, also a look at the websites.

Conclusion

I have known worst weeks, I now just let things happen and no longer worry about what should be done.

Be happy, healthy and wealthy.

Please do take care.

God Bless.
