What a morning!

My Tesco delivery came at a quarter to nine this morning.Since then I have taken everything out of the fridge and washed the fridge.   Then I have gradually unpacked the bags of my order, disinfected everything one by one and put it away.   It took me until half past twelve because I walk so slowly.   By the time I had cooked my lunch (jacket potato stuffed with cheese and streaky bacon and eaten with two fried tomatoes and a handful of sprouts (the cleanings out of my fridge!) I was very tired.    But I needed a dose of fresh air and it is just not quite warm enough to sit out for half an hour (for me at any rate).  So I had a gentle stroll round the block with Percy (two socially distanced chats in the way round), watered my two tubs by the front door and am now in and intend to do nothing else all day. I am 'leg tired' and I don't think that does me any harm at all.

Now that I am back home of course (sod's law) the sun is out and the weather is beautiful.   Although my gardener cut my front and side lawns yesterday already three dandelions and eight celandines have declared an interest in it again.  And. speaking of my front lawn, most people do not care for starlings and I must say they are not my favourite bird but two of them, who must surely be nesting somewhere near, spend a great deal of their time with their beaks deep into my front lawn searching for - and obviously finding - some tasty morsels.   I suspect they are doing my lawn a lot of good.   My gardener is intendending to scarify it again shortly.   It is on a steep slope and you would imagine it would be well-drained, but every Winter it gathers moss.

Enough for one day dear blog friends.   I shall make a cuppa, put my feet up and have a look at a couple of magazines friend W has just dropped off on my doorstep.   Happy Easter to you all.

It sounds like a tiring start to the day, but what satisfaction in having achieved all that PLUS your daily exercise already.

Maybe a nice sit out in the sun is called for ... if you can stay awake :-)

Happy Easter. xx

I have to day, it is hard not to give everything a wipe down with soap and water (for bottles and plastics here, 20 secs)before putting in the Quarantine Fridge. Tins, lasting vegetables like spuds, sweet potatoes etc wait it out, along with tins and dried packaging. After a week I deem them fit to touch. I have been known to rub some things down with an antibacterial spray (which probably does no good at all apart from in my head!) and then the soap and water.

Glad that you got a walk in and sorry you couldn't sit outside (until this afternoon, hah!)

I cannot go outside for the next week or so as the pollen had gotten so bad that even my steroids weren't helping, so I have had to concede defeat. It is so frustrating though, and although I am keeping busy indoors, I understand fully the frustration of people in flats and housing without a garden . . .

Smiling at your three dandelions and eight celendines already declaring an interest in your lawn again!!

You gave been much busier than I have today. Apart from putting away the clean laundry that had dried overnight all I have done is sit out in the garden reading. I have just made a pot of tea and cracked open my Easter egg!

I'm just sitting down with a cup of tea after my morning walk IN THE SNOW. Yes, it's snowing here, which doesn't seem quite right for Easter weekend, but then again, this has been a very strange year.

Lockdown with W sounds a hoot.

About birds. On my walk this morning a green woodpecker illuminated my woodland path taking off and landing - away we went from the madding dogs barking loudly somewhere in the trees.

I had my first delivery of food from a local store last week and I like how it works. No need for me to drive there and no need for me to mingle with people in a store. That is a lot of work you did cleaning each item, it does need to be done.

gmv said...

What a lovely morning you have enjoyed. It makes me feel good just to imagine it from your words.

Your starlings might be looking for crane fly larvae, the larvae of the Daddy Long Legs. They do dig them up in the summer. xx

Happy Easter you've deserved a sit down in the garden with a cuppa.

Sue said...

Happy Easter Pat x

Heather said...

Your lawn will certainly not need aerating after those starlings have been all over it. I had a busy day yesterday so rewarded myself with a couple of hours sitting in our garden this afternoon. Ten minutes in the sun, then a retreat into shade - it was so lovely out there. I believe in making the most of it while we have it. Enjoy the weekend whatever the weather.

Thanks everyone and have a very happy Easter - and let's all be hoping John has not got the dreaded bug and if he has that it let's him off lightly.

Bonnie said...

Getting groceries cleaned and put away is quite a job these days. It's good to have it behind you. We are also back to cool weather here although it was nice to have a few days of sunshine. Enjoy your evening!

I think of Dandelions as Free spirited Coreopsis

my alabama bears home said...

Hello, found you today on my scroll of blogs and glad I did..so nice to read blogs from other countries and spots on the web. I am in the U. S. in Alabama, Huntsville to be exact home of the Space Camp.
I haven't wiped off groceries. Most of what I bought today will not be used today and I believe it only lives on surfaces for 24 hours. Honey Bear wore gloves when he bought it. I did use gloves to browse through some catalogs earlier in the week. Isn't it lovely to walk outdoors...
I'll be back soon.

Tom Stephenson said...

Joanne Noragon said...

Putting groceries away is tiresome. So is getting them in the house.
A happy Easter to your.

Love the birds on the lawn ! Aerating the lawn and getting rid of bugs !
Son just finished washing my fruit but we have been doing that for many years already. Washing or wiping down the other things is something we have started to do. We always wash hands change shoes and whip down phones. I am trying to stay alive. New will gets signed on Monday.
Be well

I cut my lawns one day, and the next they're covered with daisies. What a shame one can't eat them; I'd have food for an army.

Penny said...

Happy Easter. Your lawn looks far better than ours. Stay safe.

thelma said...

Happy Easter Pat, take care. Fight on dandelions you know the bees need you;)

The Weaver of Grass said...

Cro - I love daisies but their stalks are so short you can#'t even pick them and put them in a vase.

English Rider - brilliant description of dandelions!

Enjoy the warm sunshine while you can.

Its a pleasure for me to write this testimony about how i got my Diabetes type 1 cured a month ago. i have been reading so many comments of some people who were cured from various diseases by dr ovia but i never believed them. I was hurt and depressed so I was too curious and wanted to try DR. Ovia then i contacted him through his email when i contact him, he assured me 100% that he will heal me, i pleaded with him to help me out. My treatment was a great success, he healed me just as he promised. he sent me his medication and ask me to go for check up after 2 weeks of taking the medication. i agreed with him i took this medication and went for check up , to my greatest surprise my result was negative after the treatment, i am really happy that i am cured and healthy again. I have waited for 7days to be very sure i was completely healed before writing this testimony. I did another  test one week ago and it was still negative. so i guess its time i recommend anyone going through diabetes Herpes HSV-1 or HSV-2, HIV, HPV, Hepatitis B,Cancer reach him through his ig link @droviaherbalhome or on whatsapp +2348117923986 his emails address droviaherbalhome@gmail.com
