Bonnie morning ....
24th August 2024 (Saturday) 07.00 .... This is the first morning I've been up and active, at
what I call my normal time (05.30) for about three months; and I'm feeling bright eyed and bushy tailed. It's a pity I can't go biking! Anyway, though I haven't been anywhere, I've put on a washing and even contemplated going to the beach, but decided to leave that until another morning .... and I'll use the 'hurdy gurdy' cos it has a seat! Unfortunately the sun isn't high enough yet, so too cold to have breakfast outside.
20.00 I've had a long and busy day: 'long' because I got 'up' at my 'normal time'.... and busy because I went to Elie picked up my prescription, went to the 'paper shop' and got the paper, then decided needed to go to B n Q's (Leven). So I set off for Leven immediately after I left the paper shop. Instead of going to B n Q's I went up to Methil to see how Alice was (she had been baking),; we had a cuppa then went to Sainsbury's and B n Q's, then back to Alice's to catch up with all her 'local' news.... and scoff the lunch that Alice had prepared earlier. A mug o' coffee and another blether, and I was soon on my way home to Ivy. I arrived home 13.50) as the edge of a shower passed over but it didn't last long. With the messages away in their appropriate places, I was soon sound asleep in front of the tele!
The next couple of days are going to be spent catching up with the bedding washing that I couldn't do because of the short washing lines. That said the weather forecast for the next few days is mixed; sunshine and showers mostly. Anyway I hope to do the big downie cover tomorrow (it takes up a whole line) and other bits and pieces. If I get up early and get the downie cover out early, it could be dry before the light rain, mentioned in the weather forecast, arrives in the afternoon.
