Sunny today...

Internet behaved itself this morning.
Managed to download some weird Badger behaviour.
It was Willow. Willow kept standing on their hind legs. And managed to upset cat Merlin. Very similar behaviour as to what Pa Badger did when he was around....only he upset Cat Midnight...

What is willow looking for ?
 
A quick visit as just to say, my team won.
6.4.
Bedroom curtains needed putting back up as Mrs L stumbled and grabbed first thing to hand.
Lovely day for laundry, thanks whoeve.
No time for garden today, as babysitting, not only Mrs L but #7 & #8.
Had my foot to the air last night as good by the nurse. Looking very good now.
Limping much better. But still on the injured roster.
Somebody tell Mrs L!!!!!!

Enjoy your weekend
Best wishes.

I have not a clue @jjraak
There is no food about. I do not feed the birds anymore so there's no bird food dropped. This is because I noticed a couple of rats last November on the on the trail cameras and I withdrew all food of any sort from the back garden. So this new lot of badgers have never known that there was a food supply a long time ago.
I do have a bucket and small container of water. And I have noticed that the badgers do come and drink from that as well as the new fox. And the stray cats.

I still feed the stray cats, But now they have to come indoors and ask me when they want food and I will feed them food in the kitchen, and it all gets cleaned up immediately afterwards. No food is left out for them anymore. Even The two feral cats come and ask me for food. They come up to me and purr and rub against my legs to indicate they want food, and I will feed them immediately, but if I as so much as put a hand to try and stroke them, I will end up with shredded arm and hand.

With the last Badger family before they went missing in November, Pa Badger was always obsessed by the swing.

Morning all from a sunny L.A. I have nothing to declare but my, no not that Oscar, lurking. I have been reading and giving ratings as you may have noticed. Hugs for all the hassles and medical issues but winners for keeping on keeping on. Take care and God bless you all.
 
12.6 this morning.
Unfortunately did not make good food choices today, weekends do seem more difficult. But tomorrow is fresh start.
Remembered that taking a creon might help me feel better. Still experimenting with them, but had a patch of not taking them.
For some reason I cannot take them 'normally' as it gives me pancreatitis. Because why not.
Will try and introduce again slowly.
 
Good morning everyone on a splendidly quiet start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north.
5.5 this a.m.
Garden centres yesterday looking for a Magnolia Stellata. Success although other plants seemed to jump into the trolly and some are now firmly re-housed in the back garden. Others; those few, those happy few, those band of brothers will go in the front borders today at some point.
Shoe boxes - another three filled, some items donated by family - contents aimed at teenagers.
Rugby - well there it is. Vivre le coq sportif.
A walk today perhaps. It’s overcast so wrap up warm - is there any other way to wrap up?
Art bit - three trees.
Hope your day is kind to you. I shall drink koffy and be minded that some things that I take for granted, others wouldn’t think to dream of.

Had to search for what a creon is - every day some new knowledge - take care.
 
5.6 this morning.
Yesterday was super busy so really nice to have a relaxing day.

Mr K brought Bonnie with him to pick me up. The idea was that he came into the hall while the class were packing up their gear. Bonnie would sit quietly by his side watching them. The class members had been pre-warned to ignore her. This is for her to learn to be calm when there is a lot going on.

The reality was that there was a messy church being held that afternoon. Mr K arrived just as a load of children arrived at the church. As soon as Bonnie got out of the car she was surrounded by very excited children who all wanted to hug her. So not quite to plan.

Wow...a different Art bit. Like it @dunelm
 
10.3 at 05.00 today. Succumbed to my sugar "addiction" yesterday - so that's the result. Goodness knows what it was during the night.

DIL had chest pains a couple of days ago and actually managed to get an appointment to see a GP. Opinion seems to be that it isn't angina, but a chest infection. Unfortunately all the antibiotics that have been tried over the years have resulted in severe allergic reactions so when infection strikes, she just has to stay as comfortable as possible and wait for it to go away.
 
Fbg 6.7

Was sun, but now clouds...
Dogs barking non stop.
I feel sleepy...

Creative...a woman talking on her phone while crossing the road...a finger line sketch on my phone...while having a cuppa tea in my car...

That's it...

Have a good day...

A surprising 6.2 this am.

Doing mostly kitchen duties today.

I'm wondering why it is very bright first thing, then clouds over, then clears for a starry clear night, so it is frosty.
For my sanity, please.
Keep it mid teens and a nice spring day. I don't ask for much!!!!!!!
