Rose 5-45am to a dismal damp start to the day with the forecast showing more rain over the next few days, pleased to say my attempt cooking wise of yesterday was successful and the steak and kidney pie was delicious, with few mistakes but have remembered them and trust learned from them for the future
Eileen helps but is increasingly finding that the times she is standing are increasingly painful, so to I comes the responsibility for the cooking etc, which I am happy to do. a quick stew today as I have to take her to the hospital for her regular Eye check up later, first I am going to do a lttle shopping, to get more Border to complete the bedroom decoration. and a new extension for our door bell as neither of us hear it if we are in the kitchen or bedroom, also some new Pansies to replace the ones the bitter frosts of January spoiled, plus some more daffodil bulbs, On friday I sowed a few seeds for use later at home and for my Church garden. mesanbrythium, (I'm sure that's not correctly spelled but will do) we grow these each year usually buying them as plants, so this year we are trying to raise them from seed, I am keeping them in a cupboard that is over our cooker and therefore always quite warm. we shall see, bought some more yesterday but to early to sow yet, off to complete another of my church chores of love, cleaning the windows,so of we go to start the cheeribye.

This is all so very positive and you are going about life with a will. My lovley hubby does all the cooking (because he is better than me! lol) It is good to see you are enjoying your tasks. Like you he is always overseeing and mainly hard grafting at our church. It is good and wonderful to have the opportunity to give and be needed after retirement.
ReplyDeleteIt is also good to see you are contributing to 'letters' in the Chron once again.
Our pansies are looking a bit worse for wear but I think if we take the tops off they might recover.
Hope the eye clinic is favourable for Eileen. Jx
