Cocooning.

Hello Friends!

I had my morning visitors today!

Yesterday I rescued my red robin who bumped into the window and was on the ground not feeling well. I put it in a card board box a little one that was containing my sweet potatoes. I have kept him on my side talked to him for about one hour inside . Before it was dark and by the time birds are going to sleep I have put the box open outside and I was happy to see him flying away.

He cooperated and was very calm listening to me.

It was a nice time in my day! 

This afternoon will be calm knitting by the fire and drinking my coffee with a Fall chocolate from Belgium 

This is one of my favourite cups and saucers

The weather becomes colder and I lit the fire this morning the temperature inside by the fire is 21.5 degrees C and about 19 in the rest of the house.

At the same time I am watching the midday news of my country!

I wish you a nice day. 🥰

What do you think of that? 

 Today I had workers at home.🏠 the ancient owners had left the gas bottles in the garden I always thought it was not very nice in our backyard. So here it is I have now a little cabinet to hide the gas bottles with some tiles on the roof. Now I will be able to arrange the garden.

I wish you a good week enjoy!☺️ 

A Fall weekend

Hello friends 

Yesterday we tried to go out despite all the problems here and road blocked.

We went to a little town in the country where it was safe.

We were looking at the shops and heard a crowd screaming we thought it was a  demonstration

We were surprised and a little scared 😟 

But it was a big wedding about 200 people and as there was a carousel in front of the church the brides went on the carousel and the family laughing and waving at them. About 200 people make noise!

I took a picture from far not to disturb of the ladies in their beautiful dresses and hats and men  most of them in their tailcoats. A very nice wedding!

We walked a little this afternoon and saw the Holly already in bloom for Christmas!

We try to keep positive despite the situation in our country at the moment. Fall is my favorite season!

Watching TV by the wood fire before our supper.

I wish you a nice week.

 

This and that.

Hello Friends 

Not feeling too well these days we are tired because our dog is ill and we have to take him outside once or twice during the night and it’s difficult for my husband to wake up in the middle of the night as he  is still working but it will be a relief when he will retire end of December.

Last  Saturday I had a voucher in my favourite shop so I tried to get a pair of jeans but I finally bought two of them one beige and one black

They are warm but light with hood but no sleeves

I found some beautiful pictures of my favourite season Fall!

It’s sometimes difficult to post with blogger!

The reading list doesn’t work most of the time.

A new weeek.

Today’s Autumn weather.

Hello Friends!

Today is a new week and Bandit is smiling 😊 

Not feeling too well , sometimes he gets better and sometimes not… he will be 13 in December he is an old dog now! We love him !

Our two grandsons at Sea World Abu Dhabi with a friend.

A little bit of fun! Yes it’s difficult to see the years  go by when you have to scroll to your birth date!

Sometimes it gives vertigo!!!

This will be my motto: don’t watch the news and avoid the scale!

Happy New Week!
 

This and that.

 Hello Friends !

It is cooler  here 13 degrees C, rain and wind but Maxime uses an umbrella against the sun and heat! He saw one of the guards at his school entrance with an umbrella to protect himself from the sun and asked dad to get one for himself! But he des appears under this big umbrella. He is going to school with it!

The weather actually is very hot and damp with fog. They really need rain to cool down the temperature.

Tomorrow Mr L is home and we will go out to the supermarket and go for a walk if the rain is not too heavy. 

The five pigeons are having their breakfast in the garden, Bandit if feeling a little better today he went for a little walk with his dad.

This morning I put the AC on warm ( it can do cold and warm) to warm up the house this morning. This winter we will use wood in the stove and AC instead of our oil heater oil being very expensive at the moment. With the stove in the fireplace it was about 22/23downstairs and now I am testing the AC downstairs we will see…

Mr L buys a lot of food for birds and pigeons so we have a lot round there! 

I wish you a nice weekend!

Autumn has arrived!

He was in the dog hotel he had a room with heating if cold his own bed and had walks during the day.

Our miserable garden under the rain.

 Now Bandit and I are sitting by the fire 🔥 it’s warm and nice!
