The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men!

Introduction

Good Afternoon to all you lovely people at the wonderful WA Family.

The title really does say it all, I will try to explain, when I went too bed last night I thought that I would have a really relaxed day today, I bought a gardening magazine when I was at the shop, thought if it is nice tomorrow, I will get my chair and sit on the botom patio whilstI have a coffee and read my magazine, wrong!

The weather was OK, but once I had done my morning tasks, breakfast, checked the plants, opened up the computer it had gone cold and very dull. So I had a coffee whilst I did a little research, my eyes hurt, so I sat in my chair, and woke up two hours later! Found that it had been raining as well!

My plans for lunch almost in tatters as well!! I had intended to treat myself to a glass of wine with lunch, that was also out of the window given the time, having a cuppa instead whilst my dinner cooks, have cheated and put it into the microwave, it was going in the oven, as I often have a complete ready meal on a Sunday to save me cooking a roast, which can last forever, OK it can be used to make other meals.

Back from my Cottage Pie and all its trimmings, followed by Fresh Strawberries and Tutti Frutti Ice Cream! Will have a coffee when I have finished this blog.

The Last Few Days

A different week, but most enjoyable, did my frezeer shopping on Wednesday, having defrosted my small freezer on Tuesday, this was a job that we used to do together, Yvonne sorted the food out and washed the trays, whilst I defrosted the machine, (I have a steam gun). Being on my own I put the food into the large freezer which was nearly empty, switched off the little freezer and went to bed. I got up very early next morning, wiped down the small freezer, swithced it back on, cleaned the trays, had breakfast, then returned the food to the little freezer.

Whilst I was at the freezer centre, just as I was about to pay, when Inoticed that they had Lamb Shanks at a really good price, but was not sure if I had any room, so left them there. As it turns out I could have got one in!!

On Thursday I took my daughter out for lunch, we went to a garden centre that she had not been to before, it was a lovely few hours. While we were having lunch I discussed her Mum's things, she said if you need space (which I do) put them on the spare bed, I laughed and said that is already full! However I now know that I can begin to sort things out without upsetting her. It is hard to believed that on the 1st August it was six months since she left us.

Done a little gardening, also began to look again at AI, the thought being to sort out a number of items to use as content, really must get a grip again!! Just get so darn tired.

The Next Few Days

I do have a Branch Meeting on Tuesday, we need to confirm the VJ Day service, had a set back, was told late Friday night that there is to be a National Two Minutes Silence at Noon on VJ Day, have now to push all the timings forward and notify the invited guests.

On Sunday I have been invited to the County Cricket Chairman's Annual Lunch, always a pleasent affair, usually one or two older players attend.

If possible I would like to have a really good go at AI, also sort some content out for the websites, but as usual we will see?

Do have some plans for the garden, again the weather will decide, but the rain has been most beneficial.

Be happy, healthy and wealthy.

Please do stay safe,

Take care,

God Bless.
