Hello everyone, and at last something came along that made me giggle. At the weekend, Alan had gone off to work, and I decided to go for a walk, as I’d been having a bit of a lazy day. I went down the road, past the houses, around a triangular field, where I passed an old man walking a small dog.
As you do, I said, ‘bit cold isn’t it?’ he did a swiveling action, that caused his dog to wrap around his legs, and looked me up and down.
‘Anyway, what are you doing wandering around on your own,’ he stated. I found myself answering him as if I was about ten.
‘I’m only going round the block, and then I’ll be straight home.’ I said.
‘Make sure you do, then,’ he replied.
How funny, and I could have said the same to him as he was ninety if he was a day.
Nice to know that he was bothered though, and as I walked home, grinning to myself, I put it down to my new head gear. Our Son’s girlfriend and her little girl came down to see us over Christmas, and she had a hat affair, with ears, and a scarf attached and a place to keep your hands. I said,
‘Oh, I’d love one of those.’ The fairies must have been listening, and I had one for my recent birthday. Who says you can’t wear kiddie things when you’ve turned fifty five?
Until next time, hope something makes you smile today.
Here’s me in my funky head gear.
The book clearing is going well too. We took a big box and several carrier bag fulls to the hospice shop today.
I’m in the library, as my computer is still in hospital. Hoping it comes back soon, and glad our library is buzzing with things for us to use and all for free as well.
