@squatting dog How very James Bond-ish! The spikes just need to stick out a little more😉 Congrats on getting your lawn mowed. I just mowed mine, too.

@hollydolly Really like your new nail color. I don't get to "do" nails anymore because between the garden and the bakery...

@Mizmo So how did your charity shop trek turn out? Hope you didn't get fooled into buying back your own stuff :ROFLMAO:

Well didn't stay out long..got tired quickly..(hate that now)
So I did buy something.
A very pretty cup for 99 cents.
I bought coz it has the perfect deep handle for my four fingered hand.
Getting a grip as they say.
Doing not too bad with the left hand though.
So now I am going to have a coffee and watch the recording of the Queen's parade.
Oh, I did stop at Timmies and bought 2 donuts . Honey nut cruller and sour cream glazed.
Just don't know which one to have...

Mizmo.. how DO you.. hold a mug with only 4 fingers and no thumb?.. I tried it with my empty Mug just now.. and I think I would scald myself with a hot tea holding it with just 4 fingers :unsure:

Well I do have to use left hand a little on side to balance but I have been doing it that way for quite a few years now....nerve damage etc.
It is a big step for me as a few weeks ago I couldn't even get my four fingers to hold anything.
Also the shape of the handle is important.
I will take picture of cup and post later

Bought the material and fun decorations for my fall table…. I thought the owl was so cute. Not the best pic but it gives you the idea

Autumn indoors decorations have never been a thing here.. it;s just something we've never done in the Uk at all, unlike the USA... However it has recently become a fashion, and it;s taking hold quite quickly in the last year or so, and now our stores have a lot more Autumn decor than ever before
 
I had a pretty good day. My aide was here and did some laundry and other cleaning jobs. After she left I made breakfast and then took a ride on "Jazzy" to the Grand Union. It was nice out. After I got back my friend stopped in to show me the letter her doctor filled out for a "reasonable accommodation" so she can get a kitten. Her old cat had died and then management said she could not replace it. Even yelled at her about it. She has been a nervous wreck ever since. Has Parkinson and the stress of the two last managers have affected her big time. Feel so bad for her.
 
Today I went on a Whale Watching cruise, we only saw one whale but he was as good as a show - he did innumerable flipper waves, several times rolled on his back and sort of slow-clapped with both flippers, humped his back out of the water when he dove, regularly blew spray up in the air, flapped his tail up out of the water, bobbed his head out of the water 'chin slap' (but I missed seeing that), and breached a half a dozen times.
Turns out I am not good at taking pictures of whales, all I got was a picture of a small splash of water! The cruise company said they post pictures of our experience for free but will take them a couple weeks to get the pictures published to their website.

I thought my foot had done fine going there and back and I was really happy, but since I've been home the sprained ligament area has swelled up a bit, so disappointing but it seems like the foot has made a tiny bit of progress, maybe the doctor was correct in saying it will take a month to get better.
 
Another lovely day in the neighborhood! This time I'm not gonna make a laundry list of all the things I intend to accomplish. Instead, I'm gonna start on one side of the garden and work my way across and up and down to see how far I get.

The a/c will prolly need to be turned back on today. Sigh. It was nice while it lasted.

BTW @Trila regards to🐐 and Andycat. I hope that they (and you, of course) are doing well.
 
I'm fairly irritated. I wanted to go and take some stuff to the recycle centre and also cut the lawns .. but the forecast stated rain for all morning, ...so instead I felt as I was going to be home I may as well order an online purchase for next day delivery..

Well, it didn't rain at all, and the forecast says it's not going to rain today or tomorrow.. but now I'm stuck in waiting for the delivery which is showing that it will be delivered by 10pm ..so very ambiguous . ....so I can't go out, and equally can't cut the grass because out back with the lawnmower going I won't hear the doorbell :confused:
 
Making progress on my transferring photos from the old hard drive to the newer smaller one. When the old one is on I can hear it groaning........ So need to get all out of it before it conks out on me for good. So I will be working on that this morning. Not sure what else I will find that needs to be done.
 
I realized yesterday how totally I am out of shape, and everything hurts, and I do believe it's from sitting too much because everything hurts. I will try to do more every day, including today. It's my life at stake, the quality of my life I do believe. I'm in trouble. Serious trouble, but I must try harder. Or else.
