The Stay Safe Board / Diary - Sunday 22nd November
« on: Monday 23 November 20 00:06 GMT (UK) »
Well today was a bright and sunny day... when I pulled up the blinds it looked like had been a very light frost....
Amended my Waitrose order for the last time and looked again for a slot nearer to Christmas week... the latest I could find was Saturday 19th so I booked that one..
As it’s Sunday today I read the papers after breakfast... not much in them really...read an article in the magazine about Dolly Parton at 75 she’s still going strong unbelievable woman.. the next article was about a Danish chap who owns a fashion brand but has bought up huge areas of Scotland with the intention of rewilding the areas... other than those nothing else of note... the main paper I’ve almost given up reading as I don’t believe most of what they write and too much news isn’t good for ones nerves so I just skim read...
Finally went to get dressed and continued making cards...
OH made lunch and as it was such a lovely afternoon we decided to go for a walk...it was quite bracing and I definitely needed my gloves...
We met quite a few people on our rounds doing just what we were doing and it was pleasant to chat to them .... no sign if any dogs so I think they’ve got the message!
On our return had a cuppa and went to do some more cards as I’d decided this would be my last day for the moment...I’ve managed to do about 90 so not too many left to do and special ones for the family...
Prepared dinner loin of pork, roast pots and parsnips, make my own sage and onion stuffing, carrots, leeks, beans and cauliflower...
Took a tip from Viktoria and for last 15 mins I sliced of the skin lay it on the top if the meat, turn up the heat and result was lovely crackling...
Watched some tv... read whilst OH watched end of snooker ...
Tired today as I’d woken early too.
Hope others days have been pleasant... as they can be at the moment... another week coming and we’ll find out what scheme they’ve come up with to appease people with for Christmas.... if we have to stay at home to be safe for everyone then that’s what we’ll be doing!
Thoughts with Carol... Annette too with her neutered to worry about...
Night all
