Morning all. After a busy couple of weeks (beaver camp at the museum one weekend followed by March recording that I have taught more children this year so far than I did in the whole of 2015, followed by working at the NEC practical classic car show the next weekend, followed by last night learning to ice skate with scouts... amongst all the house / job stuff) I have taken today and tomorrow off to ground myself.
I was meant to be going to beamish for the steam weekend but I think, unfortunately, that sorting shirts and cleaning the bathroom and working out just why my freezer is full yet we never seem to have anything for dinner are higher on the to do list.
Unfortunately ice skating means my knees are so bruised and sore I'm not sure I can get trousers on so shopping and other leavjng the house type activities need to be reassessed.
Keep the kettle on! My to do list currently sits at 22 things, non of which are quick to do for that smug satisfyingly tick.
I have a feeling I'm also about to erupt with a bad cold so if the weather today could be glorious to speed up any germ killing properties my body may still have I'd be grateful.
The knees; we were going well til right before the end a nervous scout who had been clinging on to the edge all evening suddenly managed to get everything to click. She was doing really well... then hit the floor.
I rushed over to make sure she was okay and while trying to avoid someone else then fell... only to have a beaver who had been watching it all come over and crash in to me.
I don't unfortunately have the option of keeping the curtains to the front of the house closed! Currently sporting rolled up pj bottoms.
Laptop is hopeless so I've not been around recently. Battery doesn't charge so it has to be plugged in all the time and I kept catching the cable and pulling it out. Hopeless mare. It shuts off if you look at it the wrong way. It's now held together with gaffer tape. The thing the charger goes into is bent...more innuendo for you Hosta
Good to see you back Clari - burst knees and all! I've no chance of catching up with everything else - too much to read -so I'll wish everyone well and hope all those with lurgies are on the mend.
Very cold wind here for the last few days - I was almost forgettting what that was like. Spring is springing a good bit though.
I'll have a quick look round before I go- laptop permitting. Have a good day everyone
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
There's been a big hole in the road at the bottom of the rise for the past week - men in hard hats have come along every day and leaned over the barrier with the No Smoking sign and drawn on their fags contemplatively ... Today different men arrived nearly an hour ago and started digging !!!

Good morning Clari
Bruised knees!!!
All I can say is prioritise and pace yourself ... But you know that already

Clari, do what we do: have a cuppa and then procrastinate a wee bit longer.
Oh I know it Dove, never stick to it but know it.

Hosta; I think of my tea drinking time as "looking for inspiration online"
Oh.... I like that one.
Morning all/afties Pat if you're still around.
