Thursday: And the heavy sound of rain on the kitchen roof. But it is at least warmer. There is so much sadness in the air, Auschwitz once more tells us to remember the cruelty of the past. Then there is the daily death toll as the virus moves through our population. Read a wretched report about idiot people, Covid deniers who made their way into hospital/hospitals to confront the poor nurses and doctors and argue the toss. We will need the army out on the street soon, no, only kidding. Get my vaccination tomorrow.
Our doctor's surgery, is very well protected, voice opened at the door, with sanitiser inside, and then socially distanced from the reception desk you are given your orders to which ever waiting room.
I should be more cheerful this morning but the rain doesn't help, the river has still not risen which is a plus point. Lucy is the cheerful one, in her 14th year, she still bounces around like a youngster, often falling flat but it doesn't worry her. Her feet are hairy Hobbit feet but must keep her pads warm. After her supposed strokes she is starting to eat better, demanding a slice of toast for breakfast and a lunch meal of noodles or pasta and then there is tea of course ;) can't keep a greedy dog down for long.
The first photo is taken on a summer's day in Cornwall, we were at Paul's cousin cottage staying there for a couple of days in their new extension and sleeping in a gallery above the room. They had the ideal rural life so many want, hens in the garden, a vegetable garden and a pretty remote village, called I believe Ruan Lanihorne. All I can remember of our trips down to Cornwall was that the sun was rather tardy in coming out!
I am wittering on waiting for it to become daylight so that I can let out the bantams, the little cat won't be round till it stops raining.
Summer's day in Cornwall is a nice sentence to read when I look out of the window!
ReplyDeleteWell luckily the seasons always come around Pat.
DeleteHow lush and green that first picture is! When I look out my window, I see my backyard covered in snow. Glad to hear that Lucy is doing well and enjoying life!
ReplyDeleteLucy is rather eccentric atm about feeding. She expects her tiny dog biscuits to be thrown so that she can catch them, two handfuls take a long time.
DeleteI get vaccinated tomorrow, too. It will be a doubly good day.
ReplyDeleteSnap. Though now there is a lot of talk about the 'Oxford AstraZeneca' vaccine not as good for people over 65 years. But they say that in the trial runs there was not enough older people to measure the result by and according to our experts safe.
