such a boost today… flowers everywhere I was…

quick peek at the pond and as I backed out of the driveway the sky cleared and the flowers in the front garden all smiled at me…

at the office, there were violets, two different orchids and cyclamen…

all that flower power certainly helped offset the occasional computer difficulty that I came across throughout the day…

frustration…

fun and frustration today…

spent some time cleaning off the deck and then sitting out reading and listening to music… warm enough to just have on a long shirt and culotte jeans… 

heard and spotted geese flying overhead and managed to catch them on my phone…

my daughter was working but all the boys came over and we headed out to do some shopping… except that my car wouldn’t start… the boys pushed it out of the garage and into the street where my son-in-law boosted it…

we went to the first grocery store and when we came out the car wouldn’t start again… found a fellow leaving his car and got a boost… went to two more stores and we ran in and left my son-in-law in the car to drive around while we shopped… by the third store we all went in and rushed through to be sure the car would work… 

on our way home we went to Canadian Tire and picked up a battery charger…

while supper was cooking, we charged the battery so it should be fine tomorrow…

when we were out I picked up a purple hyacinth and some purple flowers…

the funny thing was that when we arrived home from our vacation the kids’ vehicle wouldn’t start… then, this morning my son-in-law’s car wouldn’t start;-(… but this was the third, so we should be good, lol…

boost…

aquasize, big girl pants, boost, leftovers, lunch, sky, treadmill, under the weather, widow

feeling a bit under the weather and had a very hard time getting out of bed this morning…

so slow that there wasn’t time to walk on the treadmill… that is a rare occurrence…

as I turned onto the road at the end of the street I saw this beautiful sky… luckily there was no one behind me so I could stop and get a photo…

did give me a bit of a boost…

then I had lunch with a dear friend… lovely treat…

picked up and taken to aquasize by another friend and afterwards had a bit of leftover dinner from last night’s meeting…

now watching a bit of tv and thinking of a short nap and a hot tub…
