I didn’t feel particularly rested after last nights’ sleep. I woke with a clenched jaw and still a bit irritable.

It’s really hard when you do everything you can to not feel like this but some days it’s hard.

I’m finding I have a few days a month where everything irritates me. I am on a very short fuse but I’m trying very hard to be aware of it and trying not to snap. When I feel overwhelmed.

That doesn’t mean there’s anything bad happening just that I am way more irritated than usual.

I was straight out on the dog walks by 8am. It’s much milder but still a cold breeze. It’s good to be out in the fresh air.

I take Calaidh, Bhru and Freya up the hill first and give them a good run around. I forgot to take my phone so there are no photos!

2nd walk with Khaleesi and I take Calaidh with me again.

Khaleesi sniffing the daffies.

The sun has finally made an appearance.

She’s stopped to take photos again…..

I love this tree with the wee gap for cows to come and say hello.

I love this row of daffodils. They are there every year. So pretty and always my first real sign of spring.

Never work with animals!!!

Calaidh always knows how to pose like a lady.

The deck is covered in leaves and twigs again so I swept it all, I forgot to take an after photo but I enjoyed being out in the garden.

I also repotted a house plant. The root bed was soooo dense I broke the pot trying to get it out.

It was bloody hard work.

Then across the road to the hairdressers…. Got to love village life when your hairdresser is directly over the street from you. Before and after shots.

I didn’t get it coloured but it looks completely different! The blond ends are all gone.

I’m so pleased with it. It will be so much easier to manage in the summer.

So I was just about to leave for a wee afternoon in Largs, when Craig came home between jobs and I marched him out to Mocha JaK’s for lunch. (Again! Second Friday in a row…. 🥴😬)

Needless to say, we won’t be having dinner tonight!

When I got back I helped my neighbour, Kenny, plant onions… as you do! He’s giving me a bed to plant some of my own as we can’t really grow onions in the garden as they are toxic to dogs.

I thought I’d do a Spot the Collie on this next photo taken from the sunroom window!!

Freya loves to be outside, keeping her eye on everything. 😆

I also planted my Valentine’s Day Irish Oak tree today. Not looking very exciting for now but it’s a start….. 😆

So here’s the answer to Spot the Collie!!

So yeah, that’s my day today.

I’ve been ok, I still feel very tired and drained but hey, I have the fire on and candles lit and will search for something on the tv now that we finally have internet! Though my book might just do me. 😆

Have a lovely Friday evening!

Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
