Wide awake at 5am which is fine because I was in bed at 8.15pm!!
I was shattered yesterday.
I read for a bit then was off to sleep before 9pm. Apparently I missed a beautiful sunset!
Up and out with the dogs before 7am for a bit of a dog jog though way more walking than jogging.
It was lovely and sunny to the north and east.
And really dark and cloudy to the south. This photo doesn’t do it justice.
This seagull was the goalie the whole time we walked passed.
The sun looked amazing in the clouds.
I was helping out in The little gift shop today and, as usual, it was so lovely. It’s lovely to catch up with so many people that I’ve not seen in ages. I get so much out of helping people choose gifts when they have no idea what to get.
One lady said I was very good at what I did and it was a real talent. Kindness costs nothing and the shop is all about kindness, every step of the way. ♥️ Her words will stay with me.
I love this next one….
I’ve felt good again today. Calm and in control.
For dragonflies ready 2 Blue Merle Border Collies!! Craig is away camping this weekend with Calaidh…. Leaving me with these two beauties 💕
I’ve just looked at the weather forecast and we have strong winds and torrential rain overnight so I hope the campers are ok.
Hope you all have a great weekend! Was about to end with my usual “stay safe everyone” when I remembered that COVID really seems to be kicking back in at the moment, I know 6 people who have got it and it seems like they feel pretty rotten. I got a text about my 4th vaccination and my flu jab and I decided I wasn’t going to get it this time. I kinda feel enough is enough. I never wanted it in the first place but got it and I just don’t know what to do. Now that people are sick again I’m undecided. Will take any advice anyone has. I’m easily persuaded!
Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️

I would definitely have flu jab and Covid if offered but I thought the age 50-64 year olds aren’t included this time round, maybe it’s different in Scotland..? X

No idea why I’ve got the text. I’ve been so apprehensive listening to too many scare mongerers. That’s not even a word!!! Thanks for the advice, I think I just needed to hear someone say that. Xx

I think there’s a lot of people feeling injection weary. But it worries me as this includes people in their 70s I know who pre Covid would definitely have got their flu jab and now saying they’ve had enough of injections and don’t want it..

Actually that’s a really good point. No one batted an eyelid about the fully jab and in fact it was seen as a bit of a privilege at one time. Hmmm it’s scary times. I don’t want to be taking anything I don’t need, I’m scared to take it before my holiday in case I’m ill before I go. Yet I know that we need to just get it! X

I received a text appointment too Julie and I’ve decided not to take them. I was surprised to actually be given a date and time.
The last time I got the flu jab I had a painful shoulder for about six months and my mum was very ill with her last boosters for both flu and coronavirus.
I had coronavirus in November last year so hopefully this gives me some natural immunity?
Take care 🙂 x

That’s where my head was but I’ve actually had a lot of lovely messages encouraging me to take them both. I had talked myself out of it but now I think I will get them both. I’m sorry to hear the flu jab affected you that badly. I was actually fine with the last ones but just got the fear. Sorry to hear about your mum too. Do you have any other trips planned? Xx

That’s great you’ve decided 🙂 I’m too scared now lol
No planned trips, but I’m hoping to finish walking the River Ayr Way walk when we get a decent day at the weekend. I still need to write about where I’ve walked so far and created more videos which should keep me busy for a while lol
But … sometimes a spur of a moment mini adventure will pop into my head, like a wee day trip to Arran or a walk somewhere. I just need to motivate myself! 🙂 x
