Your Day (apart from gardening) - what took place?

I've just bought 3 tickets to see Russell Watson in Peterborough in November.



G.

 

Made 3 jam tarts, not for me for hubby.

 

Seen Keith this afternoon and made some cards.
Made and designed this one.

 

@shiney I have also been cookie. Baked a dozen hot pepper buns, some French baguettes, made pasta salad, made pork fried rice (about a gallon of it for my hollow legged grandson), egg salad for sandwiches, bruschetta toppings both normal and hot and a large glass of ice water for moi

 

Spent 4 hours working over at the lottie with Mr Kandy before heading for home as we were pretty tied by then.Cooked dinner and then I had a quick shower after we had eaten just as the men’s semi final tennis had started

What We didn’t realise was that it would go on for 6 hours and 36 minutes before Kevin Anderson finally beat John Isner and the last set was 26-24 about the longest set in the history of Wimbledon

In between all this I managed to hang out a line of washing which will get ironed at some point over the weekend

Getting fed up already with the Nadal Djokovic game so will probably sit and watch Celebrity 5 go caravvaning on 5+1 at 9pm

PS Woo Hoo they are even staying at Castlerigg Hall where we stay in the Lake District which has the best views over Derwent Water especially if you get the top pitches

 

@ARMANDII I agree that people somehow think other drivers have ESP instead of using their communication system/lights. Frustrating particularly when you see it's because they're breaking another highway traffic law, distracted driving by having their phone to their ear or texting.

I had some tests today. Thank goodness it wasn't an IQ test because my brains are pretty scrambled todaay.

Went to do a little grocery shopping and when I went back to my van and opened the side slider to load groceries in, discovered a man sitting in the driver's seat.... oooops,,,,, my bad, not my van

I hope he didn't mess himself ... I apologized and he was gracious about my mistake.

There are getting ready for when the driverless car come as they won't need to do anything any way

Had one for about a year as i seen farmer george in this green john deere slam his brakes on and stoped then he had a go at the person behind, as drivers are geting more angry i thought i'd better get one, already it's paid off with seeing things and giving footage to the police

 

Installed the front garden path timber edging today.

2 issues:

1 - with the aid of a computer, I calculated precisely how much timber I needed - ordered the correct amount - and somehow ended up with a large piece of timber going spare?

2 - I've been 'working' from 10am to 4pm non stop - wanted to get the job done - I will pay for it tonight and no doubt tomorrow.

 

Been back and forth twice aday to my Mum's Care Home for the last three days after a brief emergency trip to hospital and she is now on 'end of life care' just sitting by her bed, although she is unaware of our presence.

 

@strongylodon I'm so sorry ,

 

@strongylodon my heart goes out to you. Sitting in vigil during a time when there is no hope has to be one of the saddest experiences. I remember feeling so helpless. But you know you are there and I genuinely believe they do.

Luckily that period of visiting goes quickly and although grieving will follow, you will be able to have fond conversations with others and always she will be in your thoughts. I still look skyward and tell my BFF, I know, I know, don't do that Lori...

You will always have her. You may have her hair type, or her eye colour or even some gestures like hers. You will never lose her. Hold her hand now. Stroke her brow and let her feel your love.

Hugs and tears ,
Lori
