@izzythepush,
Goodmorning, Good Avo and Good Evening around ‘t woild
What a wonderful 3 days in the garden, feeling those I love close and around me, watching over as the brook babbled along. Managed to give the garden the biggest haircut ever – Noddy would love seeing the bulbs poking up through the earth readying for the Spring. Days are getting longer… tho they pass so quickly – there will never be enough time in this lifetime.
Sitting here with my cuppa tea and it’s just started to rain outside, that will bring on more growth – the buds are appearing on all the trees, snowdrops are up and lush green leaves shooting out of the ground. Gosh, I love this time of year.
I’m totally wasted today – in a good way tho where I know I’ve achieved much.
Thinking of those near and far away, hands held for the good done in this world of ours.
Missy, darlin’ girl – how are you doing now? I reckon you’ll prolly be b-balling this weekend so will be up to your eyes – but I do hope you are feeling better in your head and that you are keeping your posithoughts going. Don’t worry Mis, all will be clear in time – meanwhile, strength and love to you from across the pond – love you much Mis xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Stormy / Mis - S-boy does get hayfever, only in the last couple of years tho – actually, we both struggle with leaf pollen and take cetirizine for a few months – with this onset of asthma, I’m not sure how he’s going to fare as Spring really does arrive – I don’t like his taking all the meds he is – but it’s better that than struggling to breathe as he does at times – both of us often end up looking like we’ve been crying a river and distant relatives of Rudolf when the leaves appear – but I wouldn’t change the thrill of new life sprouting for anything. So, cetirizine is iz!
The puffers he has have made a difference since they doubled up on the Seretide dose – his peak flow has risen to 300, which is still low (should be around 450) but much better than it was, so, they are working and as long as he’s got his armour plated puffer on him at all times, I worry a little less about him having an attack. He’s coming up 15 now (how is that possible!!!!) so he has to take responsibility for ensuring he’s carrying it, but our doc is great and I’ve got puffers at each place he spends any time at (just in case), so no worries. The biggest thing I find difficult with this asthma – is that he is not doing any sport – he was so active, but he gets so tired – sport would be the best thing he could do… it’s just not happening tho <sigh>… maybe in the summer that will improve.
It’s been a tough 12 months for him healthwise – one reallllllllly good thing tho – he’s just over 5ft tall now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY for the little fella – dizzy heights!!!!
15 – nearly 15 – gosh! Time surely does fly.
((((BEAgle))))) Boy – how are you darlin’? I’ve seen you flying about the board so that’s good. Is M coming back in soon – how’s the tuna catch going? Are you still hot out there? We could do with a little more warmth so please do send us some sunshine. Love you D-boy xx
Thanks Barry - yep, I have one of those downstairs but will get another one for upstairs at some stage. Few lights have blown recently - the whole house oughta be rewired... that'll be sometime never prolly!

Anyway, if it all goes okay, I'll post a link so you can have a listen online.
Taggers - i would love to hear you play – is the playlist one from the band or a playlist of your fave music? Either way, would love to have a listen. Do you have a link? Music is so good for the soul and making music is even more special. I'm not real good on the ivories - but I do love to play and can tinker for ages or just play the same piece over and over and over. Huge emotion!
Do hope you can put up a link, that would be great. Love to you and the Cabin Boy!

Hi everyone, I took my wee lad to see my parents in the wilds of Somerset, and I actually saw a dormouse in their garden. I think I've managed to persuade my dad to leave it alone, they're really very sweet not like house mice at all.
Hey IzY, glad you made it over there and all is OK. Doormice are lovely, you could Dad to put out a box for them – they’re increasingly hard to spot these days. They are so lovely – tiny little critters…

You can apply for a box on this website

or get Dad to make one if he’s quite handy in the workshop.
I do so love mice – unfortunately so does my black kitty but he usually has them as snacks. Murphy on the other paw, just catches and drops in the house – even tho I love them, I don’t wish them to be running around the house. I found lots of water vole holes at the bottom of the garden by the river as I was being David Bellamy in the undergrowth in the last few days – I’ve only ever seen 3 here (tho they do look like rats and one was left on the patio by black kitty a while back) – gave my PaPa a bit of a scare when we he was building the Ark at the end of the garden – fast little suckers!!!! Hope the kids are well. Back to school next week – chill for a little, IzY! x
Tulip – hoping the boyz had a good time last night – sorry about the confusion – I’m sure my ex told you what’s happening (you do know the world is about to end right
<cough> ) – anyhoo, eventually they got picked up. I’m kinda glad you’d already seen the The Woman In Black – gosh, if your two were scared, then S-boy would have been petrified. I didn’t really want him to go see it even tho it’s a 12A – you know I don’t do scary (I’m still scared of the car wash CSI episode I watched – YUK!). I know they’ll be having a great time together – ‘twas so good we managed to get them to spend so much time together over half term. Easter next… we’ll sort out the sleepovers then. Give Mum a hug from me and I hope you’re taking it easy today – enjoy and relax – we’re back to work next week so try not to do too much tomorrow, OK. HA! There’s no way I would made Thurs night – laughing – I was knackered!!!!!!! I am so going to drag you there tho – you wait and see!!!!
((((Boida, JPB, Bethie, RH, MaMaVerby, Alex et al))))) hoping all is well with all the crew.
((((((((((lyBlueBaby)))))))))) thinking of you and yours, always xox x
Onwards and upwards!
OK, gonna make a ham and cheese toasty sammich, catch y’all later xxxxxxxxxx

When they muck about – well, there’s lots of laughter… so, it’s all good. It’s kinda weird, this is the most peaceful house… love the peace, even when there’s raucous laughter.
