The dogs were on top of “er indoors TM” last
night so I had a peaceful night with bed space. Result!
The puppies both shoved their noses into my face at half
past seven as though to say “Good Morning” but once I’d greeted them,
they both went back to sleep.
Dogs, eh?
We all got up an hour later.
I made a cuppa (no toast) and had a look at the
Internet. A colleague told me yesterday she’s come off of social media as she
spent too long on it. That’s such a shame – I love being nosey and seeing what
others do, but she told me that she’s looked back at her posts and what she had
been posting up was a sanitized version of her life; history as she would have
liked it to have been. Me – I just point the camera (phone) and press
the button. Admittedly I do try to get the dogs to pose… but with them any old
pose will do.
We then drove into Ashford for the monthly Sunday brekkie
with friends. It was good to catch up and put the world to rights for an hour
or so. Rather than going for any of the set meals this morning I went for the “make
it up yourself” option in which you choose what you want. Amongst which
were two poached eggs. Poached eggs… oh yus!!! I shall be having those again.
From brekkie we drove out to Bybrook Barn garden centre
because that’s what the normal people do on a Sunday, and we wondered what the
attraction was. I got some lawn food (as it is food time of year for the
lawn), thought about getting a palm tree, and looked in horror at the
garden statues which were about two or three times the price of the stuff in
Whelans.
We came home just as the rain started. Rather heavy rain.
So with little else to do I watched a film on Netflix. “Superintelligence” featured
James Corden as a self-aware computer, and would have been a good film had it
been about forty minutes shorter.
By the time it finally drew to an end the rain had eased up
so I went into the garden and hacked back some the stuff pouring over the fence
from not-so-nice-next-door, and some of the stuff from new-next-door
(nowhere near as much on her side though). After an hour or so I was
rather knackered, so I sat down and researched the palm tree I’d seen earlier
at the garden centre. Apparently if you are thinking of planting a palm tree,
this is *exactly* the time of year not to plant one. Early to mid-spring
is the time to plant them apparently. Oh well… perhaps I won’t get a palm.
After all, the last three I’ve had all died.
I then alternately read my Kindle (Game of Thrones books)
and had a kip whilst “er indoors TM” painted the back bedroom
we’ve recently had plastered.
Over dinner we watched more Lego Masters: USA…
We didn’t do much today, but I’m worn out from having done
it.
