Still not gone completely down from vaccine reaction. And I still feel tired from it.

No painting today.
It is pouring with rain outside here.
So, another photograph of summer flowers from 5 years ago.
Hopefully to remind you of summer...

@gennepher so lovely to see a photo of summer flowers. I am so fed up with the constant rain this winter.
 
@Krystyna23040 yes! The zoo is called Taronga Zoo. It's one of the best zoo's.

We had a wonderful time but my feet are killing me from all the walking. We packed our own snacks and water, as buying food at places like this adds up.

Finally all the kids have gone home and I can rest. I don't have any kids myself so when my nieces stay over at my house, it wipes me out lol

Good morning everyone from an other dull day here in the dark and dangerous north
Pea and ham soup - that ham had to be used up and dried split peas really are less than 10 a penny.

Late breakfast yesterday, quite late as the menu changed from breakfast to lunch before my full English less the carby bits arrived. Why oh why oh why oh why is that half a sad looking tomato there? Tinned if you must not the sad remains of a forced and out of season disaster (darling). Still, the rest of it is top notch and the ambiance comes free. Royal Institute Christmas Lectures started last night on BBC4 - Jonathan Van-Tam this year with a star studded cast looking at all things viral, even how the test kits work - splendid, get the kids on your side.

More squirty water art - I am enjoying seeing how these things pan out. Have a great day if you can. Koffy is now ready to drink.

Another brilliant one @dunelm
 
Good morning everyone!

5.4 this early am, not too shabby having a later dinner and dessert (keto but I still prefer eating earlier)

I'm on babysitting duties today for my 1 year old niece.

Have a great day everyone

@dunelm thank you for sharing the gift of your art. @Krystyna23040 yes, what happened to parts of Breckland being drier than Jerusalem? Another childhood memory - my father's Giles annuals - revived by this.

Actually @ianpspurs Breckland was really dry until you moved here. Of course, as we know, correlation isn't causation ☺☺☺☺

Had a headache when I went to bed on Tuesday night. By Wednesday morning was so unstable could barely make it to the ensuite. Stayed in bed all day, didn't eat, few cups of tea and some water. Terrible night sweat, will have to change the sheets. Apparently was so restless that MrSlim abandoned the bed and went to sleep on the sofa. Poor man.

On my feet again this morning, but still feeling groggy and very tired. Despite sleeping most of the day yesterday.
Tuesday I did manage to defrost the freezer. Washed all the shelves etc, but have not got any further. So now all the frozen food is in the chest freezer outside, waiting to be listed. That is probably too big a task for me to tackle today.

A cheerful yellow flower.

Take care

Oh thats not good. Any idea of what has caused this - lots of fluids and hope that you are back in balance soon.
 
Good morning everyone from a beautiful start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north. The bin men have already been and gone to the cheers of early risers. A police car came down the street yesterday - turned round at the bottom and drove back up. Yes folks - it’s like living on a Hollywood film set up here. More quotes locked in for today and again next Tuesday. The cost of getting anything done and even a time slot sometime this decade is a bit of a chew post lockdown. Still, all this is quite superficial on the line of superficialness (is that a word? Must be, I just typed it out). “But is it a real word?” - Oh do be quiet. Big scam on E-Bay. I ordered Mrs Miggins some fancy jewellery and they sent me motorcycle parts.

Art bit - sketch and spray my boy! Big hugs for those who need them, hope your day is better than yesterday. Time for my koffy.

5.1 this morning. Another wet dog walk. Hopefully the last of the wet mornings. Today am doing really boring accounts.

Thank you for the summer flowers. Reaction to booster is a concern - you can report it here: https://coronavirus-yellowcard.mhra.gov.uk/ and I do hope that this clears away sooner rather than later.

Thanks @dunelm for your wishes.
I have already reported it.

On the online neighbourhood site, there are many people who have said about their bad reactions to the Spikevax vaccine, and it ruined their Christmases as well. In a sense, I find that 'comforting', not the right word but I cannot think of a better word, that others had similar reactions to me. It was all from the same vaccination centre.
