Yes it was interesting and so much fun. When you hear the news about wild animals it's usually horror stories. And yes! It can be dangerous but there's a lot more stories that you hardly ever hear about. It changed my whole perception of animals. Domestic dogs bite too given the right circumstances.Sounds interesting. And lots of fun.
Well, the wind didn't do any damage around the outside of the house except for a pot or two that tipped over and a couple chair cushions on the ground. I haven't gone out back yet to look at my neighbor's eucalyptus trees. Those branches are very brittle and break off easily. I'm almost afraid to look. The news last night showed lots of trees that had fallen into the roofs of houses around the city, or out into the streets and taking down power lines. They said the power outages numbered in the thousands.
How are your eyes doing? Recovery ok?
Cedar pieces are my favorite!!!!

Wouldn’t this be a neat thing to have in your garden?

I was thinking that too.That is perfect. Lots of clips and a ribbon or two should keep it on. Although you would need a rather long ribbon unless you can manage to tie the ribbon to the part that is sitting on your head. Maybe sow the ribbon on.
It is beautiful. Turn it into a coffee table. This type of furniture/ home decor is huge in Denmark.

Yep you're right but he will get tired of it. He keeps me laughing though...so who's helping who?Shame on you!!! Lol... you let him wear his pink with pride [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
My friend Jimmy lives in a nursing home. His mother is 82 and has dimentia. My mother moved her to her house last year so she could look after her. They have always been best friends. She is still able enough to go visit Jimmy every Tuesday and he really looks forward to it. That’s not going to last much longer though:-(. Jimmy does pretty good, his mind is just still very juvenile in a lot of ways. He can play the drums like no-ones business though. Our families are very musical
And we used to all get together and play music.. I miss those days Jimmy is still the life of the party but I love that you made me remember how it used to be I’m only 36 and Jimmy is 10 yrs older than me but it seems a lifetime ago..
They probably can't spell soap correctly.
It's a Welsh term for a microwave oven - not a direct translation but popty = oven, and ping is the sound it makes, so a ping oven. My favourite kitchen appliance!!I do wish you luck and I would never send you ironing... lol... but. .....Poptyping???? What is this??
....and a cat!Especially when they're hot... and tin...
So you'll be off work for a while?They are doing as well as expected. The nerve block has started to wear off and the dilation is going away. I have to wear a patch over my right eye to stop the double vision
That's good to hear.They are doing as well as expected. The nerve block has started to wear off and the dilation is going away. I have to wear a patch over my right eye to stop the double vision
So pleased you are feeling better Linda, carry on resting though to catch up with some much needed rest.Good morning Lena. Good morning all!
As in Denmark, next week is a school holiday in most UK schools too. It’s “half term” - a week’s break mid way (ish) between Christmas and Easter.
I am feeling so much better. The cough is improving rapidly and so is the quality of my sleep. I think. I still have a lot of sleep to catch up on as I feel wiped out - I guess this is the remnants of the bug that has had me in its grips for the last 3 weeks.
Dinner out was at a French restaurant called Otto’s. It’s very traditional and doesn’t go for special Valentine’s menus or any nonsense so we could enjoy the food and wine
Daughter spent valentine’s night doing voluntary work - rescuing toads In the spring, toads return to the pond they hatched in to mate, but many are killed crossing roads. The weather is relatively mild at the moment and the toads have started to move.
At the worst places, volunteers stand by with buckets and grab them then take them over the road. At peak times there can be hundreds of toads in some places.
Sorry to hear that Carol.Someone has damaged my passenger side back bumper by the wheel and driven off without leaving details or letting me know. Just very angry at the moment. As I seem to be a magnet for people to damage my cars . I give up. I told hubby I don't want a car anymore. I will catch a bus and he can drop the kids off. He said no.
I love Febreeze. My last one was pine but my latest is called Shimmer. It kind of smells like spring flowers. I'd rather play with animals too.The weather person told us yesterday that we will be having lots of steady rain today, so I had it all planned out that I would clean my bedroom (I live in my bedroom and so does my stinky dog) today. I've done my outdoor chores and have come back in the house, built a fire and am ready to start on my room. I glance out the window and, what the heck? The sun is shining! Oh well, my room stinks and it needs to be cleaned. Thursday when at the store I saw that Febreeze makes a freshener with the Gain scent. How many of you LOVE the scent of Gain? So I'll clean my room, vacuum it well and spray everything with Gain. Now if I can just stick to my guns. I hate housework!
