Tranquil morning ....
14th
November 2017 (Tuesday)
.... 10.30 I enjoyed my walk along the
beach, and ‘roond the Chapel’ this morning;
the auld place was serene. The sunrise
sky was bonnie .... there are clouds, drifting over on a light
breeze, to make it interesting.... yes... it was very enjoyable: it is good in the “Owlbert” world. It would be really good if the wind was to
get up a wee bit, to make this into a drying day .... I have a washing on
the line.

20.00 I’ve been really active today, having had a
walk in the morning, and afternoon. In
the afternoon I went up to Shell Bay with Jim, who was taking “SD” (Sooper
Dawg) for his walk. It never ceases to
surprise me the number of people that walk their dogs in shell Bay woods’
.... then again, it is a perfect place
to walk dogs; sheltered from any wind
and even light rain, with plenty paths to bumble along. Today we came across a woodcutter clearing
old trees... presumably so that they can
plant new ones.

Before
I went out with Jim, and “SD”, I’d cleared the moss from along the bottom of
the front wall of Ivy; where the wall
meets the pavement. Ivy now has a
spotless pavement; because I hosed the
whole pavement down. The plan is to touch
up the front wall, hopefully before Christmas, to make it, the wall, and the
front of Ivy, ready for painting ....which painting will probably happen in Spring.
This
has been a better day for me; that said,
I had two mugs on the worktop at 10.30 before I remembering that I only need
one now. Our wee villages are ‘old
fashioned’ when it comes to caring about their ‘own’.... very supportive. Then again, not only do we live in a bonnie
corner of Mother Earth, our villages are populated with, thoughtful, caring and loving folk; as when I lost Maggie this support is very
much
appreciated.... a big “Thank you” to all for your kindness. Although ‘Love’ seems to be in short supply
in many parts of the world, we have it aplenty in our wee corner. Xx

Our
weather is forecast to be dull and overcast mostly tomorrow, with the chance of
light rain in the late afternoon /evening time. Jim and I are taking “SD” out in the
morning; “Puku” is not enjoying this
exercise!
