Appreciate your surroundings

It struck me as I walked along the canal tonight just how beautiful the moment was, as the birds sang all around me ducks with ducklings flitted about in the water, Billy had walked past 3 different dogs and not bothered with them and the sun shone all over it all. It just made me […]

Reflections

I have added another page today, the third page I added recently which I have been working on for ages. I have found some of the questions really challenging to answer and some were really easy, the 75 questions seemed a good idea when I had the idea but I didn’t realise how hard it […]

Long days

Wednesday is the only day I have to go into the office so my day has to start earlier (not by much) because I have to commute, I have to put on a shirt and tie things pre COVID I would not have thought twice about but now it’s become not the norm which is […]

Readers

Today I went for an eye test because I am finding it more and more difficult to see to read and I hope getting a pair of readers stop me straining my eyes, which I think is causing me to have headaches. I have also stopped drinking Lucazade because of the headaches incase its sugar […]

Family Questions answered

Todays blog just advertises the fact that I have added a new page called “Family” these pages are very hard to put together because they are very revealing to me answering the questions and to anyone reading the answers but putting it all down in print feels good. I am almost finished with Reflections the […]

Digging my scene

A good day today I met me mate Tom’s wife Celia on my walk this morning and stood talking to her for 10 minutes followed by Mainy’s Dad Pete for a similar 10 minute chat so even though I was out for over an hour only part of it was spent walking much to Billy’s […]

Nothing to do with me

Got up today with every intention of working towards finishing the base for my shed but it turned into a day spent doing stuff for others. Walking Billy because he needs a dump Washing school uniforms because Reagan and Lincoln need them for Monday, visit Grandad because he’s desperate to see his grandkids, gymnastics because […]

Surprise!

I like to surprise Jamie with the mundane. I have always found great joy in carrying out the mundane tasks, needed to keep a house ticking over (cooking cleaning washing etc) but doing them as a surprise. A good example of this was tonight, I had finished work and had sat down watching TV she […]

Our babies

Every year when the blosom appears I remember that feeling I got as we planted the tree at the bottom of the garden and when it falls after such a short time growing on the tree I am reminded how lucky we are…

I am so excited!

I really am excited to go to see the Denver Broncos in London at Wembley 30th October, the fixture was officially announced at about 13:15 this afternoon and I have felt like a little kid at Christmas dreaming of how it might be or how I want the weekend go. It feels great to be […]
