Webby

 


How awesome does this web look! I like seeing webs and think spiders are really cool! I doubt I'd be saying that if I lived in a warmer climate mind you haha! Took this a few weeks ago!

A Shy Squirrel

 


I spotted this squirrel hiding in the trees. He was very shy. I only see grey squirrels these days, never red anymore. I think the last red one I saw was in the mid 1990s! 

Hope you are all well.

Photos From My Walk Yesterday - 18th Oct 2022

 






These are all photos from my walk yesterday! It was a good walk. My friend and I went into the forest and explored all around. We found so many interesting things. AND it was a decent day, sunny and no rain! 

I was waiting for my delivery of cat food to arrive today. It arrived early afternoon, so managed out for a short walk which was good.

Purple Bee

 


This bee was very happy on this purple flower. I like how vivd the yellow on the bee is! This was taken on 31st August.

First post in a few days. was exhasuted with work over the weekend. Has anyone noticed that comments from the past are jumping into the spam folder? I noticed some on all 3 blogs from end of September and one tonight from early October! Some are my own replies and other Bloggers. I always check the spam comments when I first log into Blogger these days!

Shaggy Inkcap

 


These 2 photos are the same mushroom, but at different stages! It is called a Shaggy Inkcap and from what I have read, it is edible! I only took photos and left it be haha!

Been out 4 days in a row and have to say the prolapse is a lot better - not giving me any pain or issues like before when I was rested after the eye op! So all good. Tomorrow they say rain, I really am hoping to get out. We will see!

Busy Flower

 


Well isn't this a busy little flower! This was taken on 5th September.

Got out again today and another 10 miles! It did rain and I got wet haha. My plan is to get out the rest of the week too and aiming for 10 miles each day. I feel fit enough and my eye is so much better. I honestly think missing the walking had a major negative impact on the prolapse. 

RIP Angela Lansbury who sadly passed away today. Loved her in Murder, She Wrote.

I Hope He Did

 

This was taken on my older phone: HUAWEI P20 Pro. Date: 19th July 2021.

I saw this last year and thought it was so cute! I really hope he did ask her out <3

So today was a good day! I got out and did 10 miles and got lots of photos. I need to transfer them from the phone to the laptop. It was sunny but chilly. The first day in over a week it wasn't raining! I am hoping it will be dry tomorrow. I felt so much better getting out too. Hope you are all well and have a good week planned.

A Woodlouse On My Arm

 


This little fellow was in the bathroom and I worried the cats might get to him, so decided to put him out in the garden. By the time I walked to the back door to open it, he had crawled up my arm!! So I decided to get a photo....as you do ;-) This was taken on 7th September. Interesting fact - here in Scotland we often call Woodlice: Slaters.

So in other news, I managed to get out for a walk! I was so happy. Didn't over do it. It will probably take me a few weeks to get back into the swing of things.

These were all taken on my older phone: HUAWEI P20 Pro.

So back in time we go! A year and half in fact! The little green fellow who is starring in a few of the photos is Trevor. He is a turtle and we adopted him from London Zoo. I named him after a famous British actor called Trevor Eve!

Yes Dearie, Things Were Better In Our Day

Thanks to everyone for your kind words, feeling a lot better today :-)

Colourful Berries

 



I spotted these interesting berries on a tree! I like the fact they are all different colours! All at difference stages of development! Not sure what they are or if they are edible, so I left them! These were taken 31st August.

I have been a bit under the weather lately. Eye healing isn't happening :-( I still have hazy vision and in a lot of pain. Prolapse has been acting up and just generally drained! I am really trying my best to get on with things. But sadly not been out walking for a while and it is driving me mad!

I hope you are all well.

Going Back In Time - 3rd December 2021

These are all from 3rd December 2021. 



So yesterday was okay but the evening and today both have been a write-off. I inadvertently gave both myself and my partner food poisoning :-O At first when we were both ill, I thought it was a bug but my daughter was fine and we usually get things altogether! Then I realised it was my fault jeez! I had made soup in the slow cooker and had never used a slow cooker before....it was a vegan lentil soup. Well needless to say I won't be making soup that way again! I was reading up on the dangers of slow cookers and apparently if not used right....you could end up ill.....I am testament to that. Never have I been ill with my own cooking!!!!! I ain't the brightest am I :-| Over the worst of it now thankfully!
