HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY FULL MOON!
The moon turns full on Tuesday night in the UK and US.
I hope everyone has a good week.
LINDY, I know what you mean about the changeable weather. It was 80 degrees here this past week, but today everyone with a garden was scurrying to cover the plants because we have a hard frost coming tonight.
It's a shame because we are in the middle of our wild mushroom season, and people have been foraging everywhere. The wild morels are selling for $30 to $75 per pound, depending on the size and quality!
Love and hugs to all!
Wishing you a Very Happy Birthday AQ!
AQ - A very happy birthday. Hope you have a lovely tea with the family, and lots of treats!
DIANE, ANNETTE, KATE, HARELADY & PAT – Thank you very much for your good wishes and kind thoughts. I had a fairly quiet day. Dau & Trio came, the latter with their own personally made cards. MissL loves cats and, guess what, every “O” was a wee cat face. Miss J found some new items in our toy box (I have been culling cupboards), including 12x12 dominoes. MissS fetched the ladder and changed our smoke alarm batteries. (Another task ticked.) Now I must stop waffling and be away, I have a new book from Dau to read. Good night from DownUnder.
So nice to have family to share your Special Birthday AQ

We only have one AQ, Annette! So she must be special! :-}
Pleased that you had family round for your celebrations, AQ - Nothing quite as precious as a home made card or two. Enjoy your chocs. And a book! What a great gift. Congrats on reaching the great 80 - it doesn't seem so long since we were at school does it, or a geeky teenager? Time flies by - "Life is what happens when you are busy doing other things" someone once said.
I just finished a book I was half way through when on our holiday, and then put aside whilst I picked up the threads of home. Now I've started reading another one, although its difficult as whenever I read, I feel I should really be doing something else. And I get engrossed in them and read for ages, till my eyes start feeling as if they are going to fall out - perhaps one day, they will.
OG Many thanks for the lovely card. AQ Happy Birthday.
A belated Happy birthday AQ. Nice that you had a visit from the family, home made cards and a new book! Good that you have a g- daughter who can climb up steps and change batteries for you.
Lindy, I also think I should be doing something else when I read a book during the day. I have just returned "The Door-to-Door Bookstore" to the library, which is our book group's choice this month. There is a waiting list for it apparently, so finished reading it last night. I also had to wait for it.
LIMPY Sorry to hear that Clare is having a bad time.....both of you take care.
Sorry I have been absent. I will be back tomorrow. Meanwhile a very belated Happy Special Birthday to AQ. So pleased the family could come.
WENDY, DIBNLIB, ROSY, RUSTY – Thank you for your comments & wishes.
I fell asleep last eve “watching” TV, then couldn’t sleep in bed, so I was boiling the kettle at 1 am for camomile tea. That worked! Plus a short read. I cannot survive without regular “fixes” of reading!
LINDA - !!!!
