Tuesday

 Good morning, everyone.  Light is just breaking here and it looks breezy and dry.  Fingers crossed for a pleasant day.

Yesterday was a day of two parts.  
The day was lovely - I got some inside homey stuff done before setting off for circuit training which was hard work but very good.  There were three of us this week plus one online (isolating as one of her family was covid positive).  Of the other two, one just couldn't make it and one was halfway up a mountain!

Tuition was great.  My student had a great time at the Y6 residential week and was full of it.  We tackled stuff that they found challenging a fortnight ago and this week they got it fine.

However, I have found things a bit emotional since the day at Dad's and the evening was quite hard.  Today is fine though.

In the diary there was just one thing - Val?, it said.  We have decided to take a walk round Cressing Temple - we've been before and both love it.  We'll probably have coffee there too.
And that's about it for today apart from the usual home stuff.
Have a great day and see you all again tomorrow.  xx


Just as I typed this last, a squirrel appeared on the fence - we don't get many squirrels round here and, luckily, my camera was close by and I managed to get a few snaps.

  1. The squirrel photos are amazing and so close up that you could almost touch him. They are always so cheeky with their antics and also a bit mischievious with their digging. Still they do make me smile. Thank you for sharing. Have a good day Joy x

    1. Thanks. They are very lively little things, aren't they? The camera has a reasonable zoom, doesn't it?

    1. Thanks, Jules. He was obviously very focused on whatever he had in his paws.

  3. Imagine the day of reminiscing and going through your family things with John triggered all your emotions the other day. Glad you are feeling a bit better today.

    Good catch photographing the squirrel. Have a couple of regular squirrels who visit :) I intentionally have one feeder they can access on my deck (the rest are squirrel-proof), along with a birdbath they drink from most days, so I get to see their silly antics most days.

    1. They are fun to watch, aren't they? A shame they can be such a nuisance as well.

  4. Lovely photos of the squirrel. We get mostly black squirrels here and because of their destructive nature we refer to them as "rats with bushy tails". We also get red squirrels which are much smaller so can get into all sorts of nooks and crannies around your house as I know to my own expense!

  5. I do love watching squirrels. I am finally seeing a few more of them as they race around getting ready for winter.

    God bless.
