Something About Nothing............ #14


Beautiful morning not a cloud in the sky. Did the perimeter rounds with Louie first thing. He’s now fast asleep on my knee - as soon as I get my coffee he knows early morning tasks are finished.

I’ve always been musical. Recorder and melodica from 5. Had a piano from 7 but sadly we disposed of it when we moved here. Love all kinds of music and had thought about learning guitar in retirement but not got round to it.....yet! My old minister used to play the accordion and loved it when he brought that to services. Now we go to the Parish church we have full choir and musical group. Gets to me every time!

No Sunday dinner today as we have all sorts to use up in the fridge so will be a mixed meal later.

Hope everyone has a peaceful Sunday x
 
Good Afternoon Julie. I too have that beautiful sunny day. I like a good morning routine. Sweet Louie rests with you to enjoy your cup of coffee. Yep, we do a clean out the refrigerator dinner sometimes.

Yay, our cold front weather system won, so clear skies and 80 degrees the high. Sun is again streaming into my window. Woot!

And so, why yes,

A cup of tea is part of my morning routine. And happily, have had some tea already.

It’s that oh my gosh, how’d it get to Sunday already, but hey, it is the start of the week that changes the monthly calendar page. And a double woot woot, as many a homie can say, oh I will be on vacation this month, by the week ends. Though I am sorry Schumi and other homies had their plans for next month not to happen.

With that, besides trying to relax, it’s our grocery shopping, get the trash out, and get ready for the work week. Yep, a Sunday indeed.

Hope your Sunday is superb.

:wave2:
 
Morning all. Today is BD party proper at pool for kiddo. I’m not planning on dipping, just schmoozing. Actually, I’ll be the one in far corner trying to avoid people without masks ugh

Tom received a bottle of champagne from the hotel for his birthday, nice gesture, so we`ll have that tonight........

Diet starts tomorrow.........
Hehe
Many times I wrote geisha instead of keisha
and no one noticed.
Will take it, I’ve been called worse
I’ll have you know the accordion was the first instrument I learned...
Whaaaaaaaat?
And so the sun and hot has returned for awhile now.

My child has impeccable timing. Last week when she moved into her dorm her roommate had not arrived yet. I offered to purchase a doormat and bathmat for them if the roommate didn't bring them. This afternoon dh and I went to Bed Bath and Beyond to get some things. We were about halfway home when B texted me and asked me to get the mats for her. I went to Hobby Lobby to get a quote on framing my puzzle. I was going to get a doormat there, but the place they were supposed to be was almost empty. Note to self - buy dorm stuff BEFORE the students return to campus.

I am trying to get into a better sleep routine, but haven't been very successful. It doesn't help that I get hot even with the ceiling fan on.


This sounds like the equivalent of the square dancing I had to do in middle school. Hated every minute of it.

I did not know about that. She's amazing.

I have no musical ability at all. I have labeled myself "musically illiterate ". Thankfully B did not inherit my lack of musical ability.


Hopefully the spring break crowds will be lighter next year.

Not ready for bed yet, but need to find something to do Dh has managed to find some college football on TV. Teams I know nothing about.

Yeah, Kind of similar concept to square dancing......but worse.....lol.....everyone hated it, even the teachers!

Yes, musically I was never going to set the world alight.....but, yes, there are a lot of us around.....

I always feel so lucky when I read your posts, I sleep amazingly well......always go to sleep easy at night. But, I know so many have issues sleeping.

woohooo.....pool day!!!

I`d be in the corner too...in the shade, sounds perfect to me! Hope the party goes well and weather stays beautiful for everyone.






Finally getting around to posting today........morning of housework and then two friends popped in for lunch with a gift and card for Tom. It was a very simple lunch of grilled sandwiches with turkey, brie and cranberry and some salad. Nice chat though.......

Sun is shining but the whole of the UK temps seem to have dropped today......we have highs of 60F.....it`s nice in the sun, but definitely cooler than it has been.....

Should be watching F1 today as it`s one of our favourite places to race, Spa in Belgium.....but the whole show is a disaster now and so dull. Used to be our biggest hobby and Tom and I went to Spa many times to watch the race, beautiful place. Now, we don`t even glance at it when it`s on.

Slow cooked diced beef overnight in ale and beef stock, will make it into a steak pie tonight with puff pastry for us.......as it feels cooler today, it`ll be nice.....

Pot of tea time I think.......
 
@schumigirl Kev and Em are watching the F1 still - I’ve given up on it - only been to Monza but Em has been to others. I’m playing in the kitchen and we will eat as soon as the race is over . As Lynne says a fridge clear out.

Lots of laundry today and change and wash of throws so still ongoing.

Had a walk to our little shop for bread and milk but not planning anything else today as out tomorrow.

Would love that pool party Keisha - seems a good while since a proper pool.

We loved Monza too. We have travelled to all the European circuits over the years and enjoyed them all, some better than others. I remember Magny-Cours....fabulous track but my goodness, it was in the middle of nowhere. We bought David Coulthard a drink there many years ago. Then met him again a couple of months later in the Moat House, as it was back then in Glasgow.

Completely ruined now by rule changes and Hamilton. Cannot watch it at all.


Let’s get the bus out and all go to keisha ‘s for a pool party

I’ll bring the whistle


I`m in......I`ll sit in the shade with Keisha.....maybe drinking a Coors light 😉 Love a pool party.....and nice to know one of us actually has a pool ::yes::




lol......that`s gotta hurt!!!



I`m sure Keisha`s party is in full swing right now....she really knows how to throw a good one......

Getting dark here already, funny light outside tonight though, very beautiful. We heard music way in the distance earlier, it`s usually still and silent here so it was odd.....then we remembered our cricket club in the village were having an outdoor socially distanced event today......ooops.....completely forgot about it. Friends that were here for lunch forgot too as she`s not long text me to ask if we had gone.....lol....we will be popular!!!

Bank Holiday here tomorrow, Kyle is off too, but no plans to do much. If the weather is nice everywhere fun is busy....looks to be similar to today....60f or thereabouts....sunny and cloudy, so nothing special......

Still full from home made steak pie for dinner tonight......it was lush!!!!

Think it might be an early night tonight, catching up on sleep we missed this last week.......

Ah yes, the weekend flew by. Kids want pizza, so that is good with me. Glorious Sunday, took a walk, as was so nice out.

Hope all have a great sleep. And yeah, will be up early tomorrow. And so it goes.

But tick tick, another link off that chain tonight.
