The moment that Jill found herself in her own this morning she was off...and not just a gentle stroll up the road.....no, she embarked in a not so gentle walk down to Le Saie....down through our woods and on to the footpath...it's not flat...it's not even uneven...at times it's almost Randolph Fiennes, or however you spell his name. Can't say I was terribly a amused....she was home when I returned from St. Catherine's Sailing Club this morning...and she had that smirky look on her face....We suspected something was up, mainly because the dog was collapsed in a heap under the table....and said dog only collapses after she's been chasing pheasants....and I had got back from her "morning walk" at about 930......little Miss Sneaky will need constant supervision....and also handcuffing if she doesn't start behaving.
I'm going to hand over now....her improvement continues, and our reader will know that from the fact that I'm not getting so much "air time".....Jill has far to much to say to allow me to carry on blogging at lib......so here she is...
Think I've proof read the first half of the blog, and at least dealt with the most glaring of errors... Tempted to leave them in as they make me laugh!
As for the constant referrals to 'she' and 'her', I take umbrage at those remarks , and I am seriously worried about the use of 'handcuffs' I'm not even going there!!!!!!
Anyway, I didn't sneak off for a walk, I left a note saying I was going for a little stroll in the meadow, ( realised halfway down I'd forgotten my phone and couldn't call for assistance even if I needed too! )
I also managed to make some Jamie Oliver "quick tomato chutney", just two jars, but with our tomatoes, onions and chilli, so be interested to see what it tastes like.... Also a ratatouille ( my boys fav dish.....) and cooked three good sized beetroot, so all in all a productive morning.
Had two neighbours pop in with some delicious homemade tomato soup, and two other friends pop by late this afternoon, offering warm hugs and not so well received ' sensible advice', fortunately I have selective hearing so I don't know what they said.....
After a long rest this afternoon, helped by watching 'Saving Mr Banks' ( thanks for loan of DVD SC ) however I'm not entirely sure of ' feel good movie', it made me cry!!!! Still, a very good film though!
Bex and I went for a walk through St Catherine's woods and up past the parish church to the village green, they are building a new pavilion/ tearooms and it looks brilliant. It was lovely and tranquil up there, with a few families enjoying the green area and pathways with their small children/dogs. I did need to phone Dan to come and pick us up, I couldn't manage the walk back, much to Jessie's disappointment, but to use one of Dans, well worn phrases ' to be fair' that was her third walk of the day!
The new pavilion
Happy daughter, and disgruntled dog!
Painkillers still working, although for some reason I am uncomfortable at night, and find difficulty sleeping, I know I could 'up' my medication but am reluctant to use it. I will have to call the hospital tomorrow and get an appointment for a check up.
A polite reminder for Wednesday Morning ....
Coffee and cake at the Squash club down in St Clement, in aid of Macmillan Jersey. If you fancy trying out racquetball turn up with trainers at 9:30am, if you just fancy a lovely cup of coffee and a piece of cake come at 10 and meet my lovely friends!!
