Slightly Under House Arrest day 90

I woke early, partly because it was already starting to warm up and partly because my legs had gone numb because Willow was fast asleep on them, these days she's no lightweight.

I got up and sat reading for a bit until Kev got up. 

After breakfast I nipped some card making stuff over to Anne's, she was sat outside in the shade, it was good to see her being able to do that. 

I did my dialog (practising the class pages) before it heated up. 

Kev did the main wash and I did the hand wash he put the towels out to dry on the rotary and I added the hand wash stuff. I cleaned the bathroom and then we nipped to the shop as I didn't want much for dinner, I never do when it's this hot. 

We didn't do that much later on, Kev's easel came so he put that together. I then came outside to read when the football came on... It was a lovely evening to be sat in the fold away chairs with a g&t ( I normally sit in the bedroom but it was way to warm) and it was peaceful for once as I had my don't bother me look on my face. It's nights like this I miss the swing seat, but at least you can fold these down. 

By the way, when I was talking to Anne and Joe they told me Barbara had gone into a nursing home. I'm not surprised, but I am relieved... It now means there are two empty bungalows in our little group. 

Sitting in the garden as the sun sinks, I am reminded how lucky we are, I wouldn't swap this place for anything, despite the drawbacks of nosy neighbours and it's travel problems, it's a lovely place to live and we've made some lovely friends here. As well as having the peace and quiet we deserve after all those years of upheaval and uncertainties... I do so love my life now, and our little slice of paradise. The bungalow is comfy ( thank God for the air con) and has everything we need. We have full stomachs ( too full sometimes, but we are more sensible than we were) and we still have each other. When you think the hell that we went through, it could have torn us apart, but I'm glad to say both of us know where our bread is buttered. And we are stronger together. I wouldn't wish what we went through on anyone, but I'm thankful it showed us the way to a life we can now enjoy for as long as we have... Anyway, that's all my musings for now... Catch you later...
