The sunflower stem I brought in yesterday has really perked up, this morning, so I am hoping the buds will open.
I didn’t visit Bel this morning as she wasn’t feeling too good. I did pop in and see Sher at the shop and then toured the charity shops in search of a lightweight jacket. Didn’t find one but did buy a nice cardigan.
This afternoon was my friends funeral, a difficult one for Tina to take as she was a church member and valued church warden. Jean came back here with me afterwards and we had our usual cup of tea and a chat.
After dinner I sat and read for a while and fell asleep for a change! I had planned to walk to the sea front this evening and although I was a bit achey I still went. I had forgotten that it is sunrise that is over the sea, but it was a lovely evening and I took pictures news.
I had walked on the beach for a bit and after I took the last photo I went back onto the promenade. Then the most amazing coincidence, the couple walking towards me were Angela’s sister and her husband. I have only met her a few times, what were the chances? I haven’t been down to the front in the evening for a very long time. After we finished our chat I took some pics of the paintings along the wall before walking home.
I had taken a flask with me and took this pic while I sat and drank it.
Quite achey now, but glad I made the effort to go out.
Never the best of days when a funeral is involved. Hard for both you and Tina as I know you used to enjoy your little outings with her. What a strange coincidence you meeting up with her sister like that. You were obviously meant to. Life can be strange at times.
ReplyDeleteI quite like the front pics. Nice clouds and subtle colour, plus the artwork is nice too. Maybe you'll get there for sunrise one morning. You'll definitely need a flask.
I wonder how old the giant tortoise is?
I am sure the sign will probably say how old the tortoise is, will try to remember to look next time we go.
ReplyDeleteGetting motivated in the morning is a bit of an issue at the moment, but will work towards seeing the sunrise!
