Day 1618 a very productive and restful Sunday

It’s only 2.20pm so far and I’ve already had a lovely day.

The sun hasn’t come out yet despite being forecast but it’s stayed dry.

I had a lie in until 8am. Check me… 😆

Craig and I sat and had coffee…

I commented on this lovely Coffee & Quotes post that I am not ready for Autumn yet but I’ll try and embrace it! 🍁🍂🍁🍂 where was our summer?!? 🤷🏻‍♀️

Craig was wood cutting with the Village Woodcutters this morning so I took the dogs up the hill. Our regular field was being muck spread so I avoided that like the plague and went a different way. We’ve not been up this path for a long time and it’s become very overgrown. I didn’t take photos but have done 3 reels today. You’ll find them on my The Rambling Sloth Instagram.

I did take this one heading home.

I loved watching them exploring and sniffing out new scents. Playing with sticks and stones… yeah not great and you have to watch them carefully, but they love it.

I then took Miss Khaleesi out for her 10 minutes…

Some fangs she has… munching on grass! She was in good spirits on her walk today again..

I came home and made a Peanut butter curry with chickpeas. (Click the link for the recipe).

It is LOVELY!!!! So good. It will last a few meals this week.

I also made a pot of lentil soup with my new Chopper from Amazon. It’s the first time I used it and it dices an onion like slicing through butter. It chips a potato in the same fashion. I also grated my fingers but hey… 😆

We then went to Mocha Jak’s for lunch.

I had the veggie haggis and Siracha toastie, Craig had a BLT triple stack!

With a lovely iced oat milk coffee…. I forgot to ask for DECAF…. Buzzing….. 😆😆

We got home and I ironed some more holiday clothes and really feel like I’m ready for my holiday now. We leave at 3.15am on Thursday. It’s nice to be organised and in control… for now. 😆

We then popped into the pub for a couple. Our lovely neighbours are looking after the puppers when we were away and will move in. We are so lucky that they will do that for us. My inlaws are very good too and will come and stay when we need them.

We hate leaving them…. Craig will worry about them a lot when we are away. I will just be drawn to any dog that I see!!

So I’ve had a lovely weekend! A perfect combination of action and relaxation for me.

I forgot I’ve done all the housework through the weekend too…. I was hoovering before the dogs were up this morning. I can’t leave the house in a mess. 😆 it’s hard work being a woman sometimes. 😆

Hope you all had a great weekend too!

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
