Good Morning: 10 March 2021

Good Morning everyone,

Hope you all had a lovely nights rest. I woke up with a bang in the middle of the night. The wind was howling and I thought my roof is busy blowing away.

Today I am posting from my desk. I wanted to walk on the treadmill but I have a runny nose, sore throat and my chest feel tight. I will rather play it safe today and pump myself full of vitamin C and Tea.

It is raining outside, a real Wintersday in the beginning of Autumn. According to my weather App it is only going to be 20°C today with 100% rain during the day. That is great for the garden and I am very grateful for every drop of rain.

On my To-Do List for today:

  • Go to shop for bread and milk
  • Edit
  • Read
  • Prepare dinner

With all my heart, thank you for your ongoing support and taking the time to read my post.

May you have a day filled with laughter and love.

Good Morning: 6 January 2021

Good Morning everyone

I woke up early this morning and decided not to go back to bed for that extra hour of sleep.

Instead, I got dressed, put on the kettle to make coffee for myself and Mornè. As soon as I enter the kitchen, Ogies goes on like she hasn’t been fed in ages.

Like every morning, I go outside and have my quiet time in the garden. Then I go to see if the birds’ water bowls and feeders are full. I water the plants that need to be watered more regularly.

The wind is cold this morning, but I am grateful for it. The weather app says we are going to have another hot and windy day today. Yesterday the wind blew us away. But we have to look at the bright side of things. It cools down the earth and makes the hot temperatures more barrable.

All my morning chores are done. Now I can focus on the rest of my day. I have to go to the pharmacy today for some allergy pills. Then I have to go to the pet shop to get food for the birds. In between, I have to edit, post some photos on my social media and here on my blog.

Photos taken with my Huawei P30 lite and I used the Shadow template of Story Maker.

I hope you all have a wonderful day. Thank you for your support and taking the time to have a look at my post.

Shadow in the garden: Part 1

Hiding behind the Habanero plant.

Since Ruby’s passing and Buddy following me around the whole time, the garden is mainly unoccupied. Shadow now spends most of his days outside in the garden.

We live next to a busy street, and every time a big truck passes he’ll run inside. When we got him at six weeks, he was very skittish. If he hears a plastic bag or you put something down to hard he will run away.

Don’t think you can pick him up and calm him down. Oh no he will come to you if he wants to be picked up. I was the first one who could pick him up and cuddle with him. Every morning when Morne leaves for work, Shadow will jump on the bed and then it’s our cuddle time. He gets very upset when I also get up and start working. He will sit on the bed and miaau till I go and lie next to him for a few minutes.

Will share some more photos of Shadow at another time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and look at my photos.

Till next time, stay safe and healthy.
