Where does the time go? Every day I wake feeling there's a whole untouched day in front of me, but although I feel I am busy all the time I never get through everything I intend. Yesterday we shopped around for an archway on the internet after a leisurely breakfast, found one at B&Q and went off and bought it. It only fitted in the car because I don't mind sitting upright - well, a few degrees forward of upright if the truth is told. We happened on a 20% off garden sale, so that was good. Then we went to Taverham for jam-jar labels and fruit and veg, and found gorgeous cheeses in the farm shop as well as elderflower wine and natural liquorice. We had coffee and cake there, so when we got home started work on building the arch. It was divorce material in the style of erecting the caravan awning, but we thrive on argument and we got it done in time for drinks on the patio, where we were joined by Steve and KAte. They were gratifyingly impressed with our work, and invited us to their BBQ on Sunday. When they had gone it was time for promised drinks in the summer house with Dot and Rodney and Anne and John from the new bungalow. Then Dave made curry, we watched the beginning of Phantom on DVD, fell asleep and went to bed.
This morning I picked a big bowl of blackberries from the fruit cage after breakfast. After church Dave cut back the forsythia on the pightle that hasn;t been touched for years and filled the two brown bins, while I pitted the last 2 1/4 lbs of cherries and simmered them before going to Steve and Kate's. We had a lovely relaxing afternoon there, then came home and watered the garden and pulled up some weeds.
No word about symptoms, because there aren't any. We are enjoying the rest of Phantom. A lovely weekend,
