A better day for me than yesterday.
I'm not a morning person at the best of times and there's nothing pressing these days so I didn't do much in the morning. Was thinking quite a lot about how I should have been flying off to Cyprus today for a fortnight's holiday.
Made sure I went for my walk before lunch, the sun was out but disappearing behind some clouds when I came back. I usually walk fast to get breathless but don't run. My brother is quite a bit older than me and last night he told me how far he ran, I thought I'd see how I got on, I alternated fast walking with running. Will try and build that up.
Home for lunch then made some pasta sauce, put in lots of cherry tomatoes and peppers, put it in the slow cooker so I didn't have to keep an eye on it. Then out in the garden to remove the bits of ivy that my neighbour has killed, when I'd done that I put the plastic sheet across that bit of fence and nailed it on. It wasn't long before I was aware that what I was doing was being investigated. Put a trellis across it and pulled the surviving ivy across that so that it can't be touched from the other side of the fence. The clematis is looking worse every day, I'm still upset about my garden being vandalised in this way.
Cut the lawn and tried to get the cuttings into the bin that's already stacked with weeks' worth of garden rubbish and all the bits of dead ivy. I hope the collections start again soon. Washed out and refilled the birdbath so the little tweety things can have a drink or a bath.
Came indoors and had a look at Rootschat and emails. Cooked some pasta, mixed it with some leftover chicken from the freezer and the pasta sauce, it was lovely if I say so myself. Will freeze the rest of the sauce for another time.
Watched TV, had a glass of wine because I fancied one. I'd made a lsit of things I wanted to do today, I didn't do any of them but nevertheless I felt my day was quite productive.
Over to you
