Thursday 22^nd March

Very busy day today, visits from two friends this morning,  a welcome ‘pick me up’ and a third much smaller, younger visitor who along with her brother feels relaxed enough to leave me a ‘present’ in a nappy sac!! Actually I think her mother took that particular specimen home ;-)

Red riding Hood (disguised as a neighbour) arrived with her basket full of a delicious chicken casserole- which promptly got devoured this evening with all the ‘wolves’ in this house!  (Hubby did a good job of peeling the potatoes), followed by a fresh fruit salad made by a very kind sister-in-law :-)

After lunch I had a much needed nap (take note, I am doing as the doctor ordered!) My daughter kindly made a sign on the door to warn people I may be asleep, she says you have to look after the elderly nowadays……….. Bless her.

Four more visitors this afternoon and more cups of tea, I felt the need for a little fresh air, and the sunset this evening was beautiful , even if I do live on the ‘wrong side’ of the island….and I found a job I could do…….weed the gravel!!!! No heavy lifting there!!

Accompanied hubby down to the harbour this evening to move the boat- (I obviously was not needed as First Mate) Son no 2 and daughter were the deckhands, It was very calm and I managed not to fall off the pontoon!!
