We have a lovely show of snowdrops in the front garden, have got them appearing out the back too.
Pity about all the leaves, may motivate myself to clear them tomorrow!
I did manage to walk down to the post office and back this morning, called into the butchers to get something for tea as well. But didn’t overdo it and walk up to the sea as I am trying to build up the walking again but need to take my time. I made a drink and went out into the summer house for a while to try and encourage Pandora out, but she was having none of it. I didn’t take the camera but was pleased to see the family of long tailed tits again.
After lunch I caught the bus up to Freeport, I wanted things in The Works and Pound Stretcher, one successful buy and one not. Had a drink and caught the bus home. A package had been delivered, from Amazon and I hadn’t ordered anything. Mike had spotted a cow jug like the one I had at the cafe yesterday, what a lovely surprise, and have the tray ready for a civilised drink later!
For a while this afternoon I tidied up the area outside the back door and moved the cat house into it as it has been outside and not used since we came here. Thought a sheltered place for the cats if they are out would be good. I put a mat on one of the low shelves behind it as well as it is unlikely they would share the space!
So not a bad day and 10,000 steps two days in a row!
Really like the first pic of Pandora. Very basic but nice. I’m a glutton for silhouettes! She’ll soon start exploring further afield as she gets braver out there.
ReplyDeleteGlad you’re getting out and about a bit more now, and pleased to hear you’re taking it easy and building it up slowly. Hopefully before too long you’ll be building up after an operation. Even if it’s only odd jobs you’re getting out the way at the moment it breaks the day up a bit.
Hope the cats use the cat house after all your effort. Wonder who’ll get the house and who’ll get the shelf?
Getting to the 10000 steps is really good all things considered. I struggle to get that high consistently and I’ve not got any excuses I can make 😊
The tea tray does look extremely civilised. It’ll taste so much better though 😊☕️
Yes, getting out a bit and doing a few jobs is better for my mood if nothing else!
ReplyDeleteI have tried to give the cats somewhere to go if they are shut out for some reason, cats being cats, whether they actually use it is in the lap of the gods!
Really looking forward to my cuppa, not long now.....
