Quite a night

It rained heavily yesterday evening, still raining when we went to bed. I appeared to have stopped during the night, no thunder or anything, started again late morning, it a very dark sky again just now.

Week before last I bought a melon, kept it a week to ripen up, cut it this morning for our Sunday Breakfast in bed, it was lovely and ripe, very refreshing. We finally made it out of bed by 10.30am. Veggies prepped for supper, carrots, cabbage and roast potatoes with the pork I cooked and sliced.

DB is still complaining about being dizzy when he wakes up, he does sleep on 3 pillows but wriggles so much he ends up sleeping flat. I have tried getting him to sit up slowly, but it does not seem to work too well. So he just has to wait until it settles. I do make him get up and walk round in the sitting room, not moving is not good.

The rain has done the garden a power of good, everything seems to be ok, and the lavender in the front is starting to flower. I need to sot out pots for the ones in the grow house.

Still no sewing done, just cannot seem to raise any enthusiasm for some reason.

Spoke to our old neighbours yesterday, they new tenant have moved into No 16.....apparently the place is a mess already. I know the grass has not been cut. I do not understand why people take on a house with a large garden if they are not interested in gardening. The garden was one thing that sold the bungalow to us when we first saw it. They do not seem keen on housekeeping either.

  1. Sh, lovely rain!
    Thanks to you, I've just added a cantaloupe to our grocery list. Yum!

    since Db won't get up slowly, I wonder if his doing slight exercises while lying flat would get his circulation going so he wouldn't be dizzy when getting up?
    The kids have found a house they like but today went to look at its neighborhood. L flies back to Florida later today.

    Hugs!
