Welcome to blog! I started it in 2020 to chart my recovery from breaking my ankle (hence the name). I guess no-one saw a global pandemic coming. It's turned into a place where I can talk about the things happening in my life, my horse and my cats. Enjoy!
This poor little chap somehow managed to get trapped in my greenhouse today. Poor thing couldn’t work out how to get out and was flapping about. The kittens were rather interested in it all – thankfully they couldn’t get in.
After a lot more flapping and me ushering it towards the door, off it flew. Not a clue what type of bird it is, but hope it stays safe.
I filled in my census online today. The census is a valuable source of information for those looking back through history. It features heavily in ‘Who do you think you are’ – one of my favourite programmes.
It got me thinking about what my history would be through the census. There’s a big differences I can imagine. Even if I think back to the last one!! I had a different name then. Maybe one to take a look at one day.
After spending this morning on my laptop, I thought I’d try a different exercise with Buddy. This square is an exercise that we did with Caroline Moore. I’m pleased to say we’ve massively improved on that particular car crash!
It may look easy but it really got Buddy focused and I had to plan ahead.
Then back to my laptop for a networking meeting this evening. I’m a bit zoomed out now.
Today I gave the Buddymobile a good spring clean. The living is sparkling, the lockers are all tidy and everything is back where it lives.
As the lorry was out, thought I’d take the chance to load Buddy. It’s been a few months since we’ve been anywhere so always good to keep our hand in. He was fairly chilled and loaded several times.
Just need somewhere to go…
Happy St David’s Day. My Nana was Welsh so a quarter of me is celebrating.
I got this stunning Amaryllis for Christmas. This first bloom popped today and I’m blown away by how beautiful it is.
It’s called Double Dragon. Which is perfect as I have a love of dragons. And it’s one of my nicknames.
I’ve spent most of the day outdoors. And loved it.
Started with breakfast on the patio with the boys. It was a beautiful way to start the day.
Then mowed and scarified the back lawn. It desperately needed it. I may have overdone the scarifying as I have a couple of bald spots. Whoops!
Then finished with a long hack in the afternoon sunshine. We weren’t alone as everyone seemed to have the same idea. Saw lots of cyclists, walkers and tractors out and about.
What a glorious day!
The moon was stunning this evening. I really wish I could take a decent photo of it. This came out better than I expected. The sky really was that pink!
Look who are 1 today! 😻😻
