It was so nice to go to bed in our own bed last night and be able to sleep and not worry about having to wake and go somewhere or be at an airport - bliss!
I managed to hang out the two loads of washing I did last night and after 'trying' to take Tot out, I really think she is agoraphobic, I went off to my aqua aerobics class.
I had to stop at the level crossing for a train and as I was a little late anyway, as I had to stop for fuel, I got very impatient with the train which decided to stop 'on' the level crossing and kept everyone waiting. Schools are also back this week so the traffic was heavy anyway. I arrived late for my class and it just happened to be the one teacher who only does 50 minutes anyway grrr!
It was good to be back into it again and is the first class since Christmas and I more than need them with all the eating I have done over the last two months. Time to take myself in hand, I have a wedding to go to this year!!
After class Les, Carol and I had a catch up while still in the pool and then we went for coffee with some of the other girls and had a good chat. It was so nice to be in some warm sunshine which was sadly missing in Hong Kong and has not been wonderful here so far.
We arranged to go and see the new George Clooney film next week and will have lunch first so I look forward to that.
On my way home I stopped at the supermarket and bought lots of vegetables to have a stir fry tonight with the pork loin I am going to cook.
Back home I made myself a nice salad for lunch and sat reading the paper and no TV on - bliss.
I managed to get another two loads of washing done and out - sheets and towels from Heather - and brought the first lot in. While out there I suddenly heard a cat hissing and Tot running and saw her chasing the cat down the garden and he went up into the tree and she tried to follow and as there is a lot of leaves and roots at the bottom she managed to get up a little way! Very funny. It was the cat that we don't like, the one that got in and sprayed in Heather's room when we first moved in so I was not bothered about it. It needs to realise that a dog lived here now and it can't come and go as it pleases. I then went and sat in the garden to read my book and enjoy the sun for the first time in this garden. I got onto the hammock and was enjoying the sun and Tot decided to join me and so we both ended up on the floor so I tried the sun lounger instead. It was really hot so I only lasted an hour.
I am enjoying Anne of Green Gables at the moment. It was one of the free books that came on my E reader and I am really loving it and can't put it down.
Jon came home and we had dinner and were all washed up by 8.00 and watched another episode of Coronation Street. I have so many Ellen programmes and Neighbours to watch and will need to get stuck in to some serious ironing to catch up.
We tried to take Tot out again tonight but she got to the end of the drive and then refused to move. I don't know what to do about it, maybe she is just happy running in the garden now?
