  • Starting the Summer

    It’s the May Bank Holiday Weekend – although I will admit that I woke this morning wondering if it really was a bank holiday or should I be getting up to go to work, but I think that’s a normal reaction.  Anyway – May, Summer – I had a productive day on Saturday – I… Read more

  • Encounters

    Why did I let my neighbour erode my joy? Ok – scene – my apartment faces out to a carpark – that’s a spot of exaggeration – my apartment is built behind a row of houses and all the houses have their parking spaces at the back – so the view from one side of… Read more

  • Frosty Mornings

    For the last few days it’s been a bit cold – not as cold as it could be in fairness. There is something so delicate about frost, everything looks blasted and could snap if you touch it. This was taken this morning Read more

  • I’ve Been To The Library

    I always thought that I was bad at blogging because I had a boring life.  Well recently I’ve been doing THINGS so it seems I’m just really rubbish at writing about it!  I’m not going to list off all of the things I’ve been doing –  in fairness it’s not really a long list, but… Read more

  • Sitting in the Shade

    It’s just after 8am and I’m out in the garden with the laptop and a coffee.  I think this is the hour that everybody seems to emerge – I can hear windows opening and voices – chattering about what needs to happen in order for the day to start.  The dogs have been left outside,… Read more

  • Rainy Days

    This is probably a post that should be over on the blog with the photos, but I decided that this was the place I wanted it to be. I love nothing more than a rainy day.  It’s even better if I’m sitting inside – a cup of tea in hand, cosy socks and slippers –… Read more

  • 4 on Instagram

    Every Saturday morning I go through my instagram feed for the week, this is no small endeavour!  Here is a selection of 4 – I love the way they dress their photos and their lighting is exquisite, they make me smile 🙂 @localmilk @silverpebble @zynp @permillion44     Personal blogs of the ladies above: Zynp365… Read more

  • If I Was A Cat I’d Purr

    There are two things I love about getting my hair cut:-  Somebody washing my hair.  As the title suggests it really would make me purr, if I won the lottery this would be my luxury – having somebody wash my hair.  There is something so soothing about it. I no longer do a rather good… Read more

  • Cake!

    I read in a book recently that it helps to make lists of things that make you happy in an effort to boost your mood.  So I thought that as this blog is about things that make me smile, why not use it to boost my mood – your mood even. Today is Thursday.  For… Read more

  • A New Book – Météores

    Today started rather good – himself has had surgery and it appeared to have gone well.  However, later on it seems that there will be yet again another side effect we will have to possibly deal with 😦  It’s not a biggy as such but it’s disappointing that this has happened. On the other hand… Read more
