Wednesday, 25-03-26

Morning, my lovelies.  How are things for you this morning?
I'm sitting here, having woken at stupid o'clock, it's still dark so can't see the weather yet but the forecast is for sun and showers and a bit cold too.  Never mind, I've just finished my first coffee of the day, the one I have my collagen in.  I have no idea if it's helping yet - my skin feels softer but that could just be imagination, couldn't it?  And my joints are popping a bit less but that could be a phase.  
Time will tell.

Yesterday turned out really nice.  I got back from Groove, had an apple and a coffee and then set out for Longacres.  I might have mentioned last week but when I was away I got a bird bath, a quite cheap one, from a stall in Thrapston.  The chap suggested that I get some sort of rock/slab to put in the middle for the smaller birds as it was a bit deep.
So I looked and they had just what I needed. Odd prices though - one was £5.99 or you could get three for a tenner.  Shame I didn't need three really but not to worry.
I also wandered around inside and bought a birthday present for someone so that was good.

I had a wee look in B&Q which was next door and found this:

Not a great photos but never mind.

It was bone dry but still looked glossy and good with no wilting and lots of new leafage so I thought it worth a go.
The label said £19 which I gulped about a bit but got it anyway.  At the checkout it showed just £9.  You can't get a half posh bunch of flowers for that nowadays, can you?  So even if it only lasts the summer, that will be good.

After saying I had nothing much happening yesterday, I remembered that I'd been invited to the Y3/4 Easter Show which was a musical of Roald Dahl's Jack and the Beanstalk from his Revolting Rhymes.  It was fab, really good and I was so glad I was invited.  There are perks for Governors!

Today I want to spend some time in the kitchen.  I have a loaf to make and bake, soup to make for tomorrow and a fridge that needs a good clear out.  I also have those storage boxes which I plan to use to put bits and bobs from a couple of cupboards in - it should make them easier to access.  Later on I have personal training and then a governors' meeting so I must go through the paperwork too.

Better get started.  Have a good day and stay warm, dry and safe.  xx
