Been for root canal treatment today, it was really quick and painless. Two hours on however, it’s starting to feel a bit sore 😟

When he did something to upset her and she threw a teapot of boiling tea at him! Good for her! She saw out her days with her brother Harry in Wareham where she caused some embarrassment by going out in food stained clothes. I love her.

Today I learned I had a great great aunt Rachel who was apparently red haired and feisty. She ended up with the role of caring for her mum and never married. They spent some time in the US with family, whilst there, Rachel worked as housekeeper for a single man. This employment came to a swift end..

I’ve decided wine is a good idea. It’s definitely not but I remain optimistic. Fuck it.

It was a bit windy up the hill the other day 💨

Beautiful autumn autumning very efficiently.

Delightful conversation with my 76 year old mum and her 78 year old partner today. Apparently, in the last elections, she persuaded him to vote differently with the promise of sexual favours. I mean good for them but bloody hell, I’m definitely filing this under TMI.

I made a lovely pie for my lovely family. My mum said I’m very uncouth. Result!

The other night, I dreamt that I flat shared with Ian Brown and Howard Donald and they had stolen my frozen fruit that I use for smoothies. I’m still feeling quite cross about it now.

I definitely thought it was Thursday today, just logged on to a meeting for tomorrow and wondered where everyone was 🙄

Will someone else just come and make this roast dinner, I can’t be arsed.

Had my hair done today, this is definitely not my natural hair colour. I can feel purple hair coming at some point. I’m planning on growing older very disgracefully.

Two new acquisitions, blue calcite and citrine. Beautiful.

Tonight’s Strictly snacks involve some nice pink wine and a bag of salt and pepper combo mix. Keeping it classy.

My 16 year old played ‘Voodoo Ray’ and asked me if I’d heard it before 🙄😆

There’s something about September and the return of strictly that makes me also drink wine and eat crisps. Tonight it’s walkers smoky bacon. Classy. 😆

Donkeys at my local animal sanctuary having a party to celebrate one of them living there for 20 years.

I just made my first crystal bracelet! I’m really pleased with myself. It’s a random selection but I like it. There’s malachite, rhodonite, pink opal, sunstone, labradorite, blue calcite, howlite and celestial.

Gift from Eric the cat this morning after a hard night’s hunting. Actually, I’m not sure if it’s a gift or a threat 🤔

I pierced my own ears today, as you do. It didn’t even hurt.

Beautiful autumn day yesterday, a walk around Entwistle Reservoir. Slightly fully than last week thanks to torrential rain on Saturday.

Crazy looking toadstools found in the park, they look like pies!

Plumeria Champa flower, smelt amazing.

Early morning traipses in the hills that blow away the cobwebs and clear the mind. And for Bob, the added bonus of getting a nice breeze on his tackle 😃

My favourite 50th birthday present, from my mum. This was a charm from my late Auntie’s bracelet, my mum had it cleaned up and made into a pendant.

This is Romsai the elephant he is blind and this kind gentleman Paul Barton is playing one of Romsai favourite melodies… Thank you for making Romsai feel special.. 🥹 🐘

Didn’t want ornamental grass anyway! Minnie, 13 years old and pretty feisty.

The quite terrifying ‘monkey bridge’ near me. Me and the dog cross it to get to the reservoir. Some of the planks are a bit wobbly and the trams run overhead. I run every time! 😃

Relatively recent blue skies in the north of the UK. Seems a distant memory right now!

He has as many brain cells as it looks like he has. Eric.

Moody morning up the hill, and evidence of the recent wildfires. There were a few blades of grass starting to push through the ashes 💚
