Day: July 11, 2020

Day 108 rest, relax and be grateful for everything day ❤️

My anxiety gave me a hammering yesterday so I already knew that this weekend was going to be different. I am not going to let it win. Craig’s out at work but will be home by about 2pm and we are going have a nice weekend together…. what could possibly go wrong?!?!

The sun was shining first thing but then started to rain 🤦🏻‍♀️ so I put the fire on and made some lentil soup and now it’s sunny again. Not that I’m suggesting for a minute that me making soup changes the weather but it’s just one of those little things that make you smile. (lovely warm day… who needs soup?!? 😳😆)

So I bundled the pups in Abbie the camper van to see if we could find somewhere different to walk. A change is as good as a rest and all that…

Freya’s face says it all… another picture…. just get on with it mumma
I thought this was a spot that was recommended to me but I seemed to end up on a old wood/forestry track that never led to water like I expected
I have to say my concern was how to explain to Craig that one of the dogs had been speared on a stick… although they were clever and stuck to the grass a lot of the time
Still managing to find some flooooors 😆
Not kidding was walking in knee deep grass here but it was stunning. Got the fright of my life when Bambi jumped across our path 🙈🦌
Check mucky nosed Bhruic! She found a stone and her barky stone squeak echoed round the fields 🤦🏻‍♀️ not my dog, honest
Not the prettiest location but I’m sure it will be the first of many!

So the fuel light came on yesterday so I drove to Asda Barrhead and filled up with 74 litres so will see how long that lasts. Got 563.8miles out of the last tank but it wasn’t fully empty when I filled it. So the pups had a wee jaunt. Again the first of many.

Just let me out the van…….

So we all came home and I had a lovely hour and a half Nana nap in Grans chair with my feet up. The dogs were zonked too which I love seeing, just so lucky I didn’t get any of them stuck on a dangerous stick!!!

I know I posted this yesterday but my new “stepping out of my comfort zone” stuff is really tiring me out. It’s lovely to know i have a few days of nothing to enjoy.
Lunch booked in the pub for 2pm and I am gonna be that person that posts a picture of our food…. it was soooo good!
A wee table for two! Diet Coke all the way for me!
The beer garden menu! Saves handling menus and reduces virus spreading. You have to use hand sanitiser before you come in and fill out a track and trace form in order to be contacted in future in case anyone gets the virus and you need to be alerted.
The famous enchilada!!
Craig has waited 16+ weeks for the Steak Pie and it didn’t disappoint
Sticky toffee pudding with tablet ice cream!
Caramel apple pie

As full as you are when you’ve had a pub meal just looking at these pics now I could go the same again….. I have shocked myself 🙈🤭🤣

So I’m sitting in front of the fire with my feet up and I’m going to chill for the rest of the night and it’s only 5pm.

The only COVID news I can see is that Scotland reported 18 new cases yesterday which isn’t the best news. Likely to be caused by lockdown easing but we just have to make sure we’re careful.

Stay safe everyone 💜💜💜
