Day 2025 the clocks have gone back and this has been the longest day with the most amazing sunrise 🌅

I was in bed early, so naturally, woke early and not a cough in sight!!! Thank goodness.

I still feel exhausted but I’m not hacking my lungs up anymore.

I saw a strange light on the bedroom wall and I jumped up, got changed, grabbed the dogs and ran out to experience this.

The sky was stunning. I think Claire and Rachel met out in their respective back gardens, and the sky was purple and orange before I got out.

I was literally running to try to get to the best view point before sunrise.

There was almost a red rainbow 🌈 but I was in too much of a hurry to stop… 😆😆

We are heading towards sunrise.

The sky is burning 🔥

This guy cycled past me and gave me a fright!! I took a photo of him cycling off into the sunrise.

(I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve typed sunset instead of sunrise!

Isn’t it stunning?

These lovely trees on the sunrise horizon… these used to be the trees I drove past when I first went to counselling when I was off sick… my counselling trees.

There is a thick band of cloud over the rest of the sky so the sun is only visible for minutes.

And there it goes already.

It was raining by the time we headed home and it’s rained all day.

This little robin flew across the road in front of us so many times.

There could have been many robins but I like to think it was Khaleesi, joining us on our walk. 🫶🏼 Bless her.

I went for a healthy food shopping in our local Tesco.

Tesco has been completely revamped and it felt very strange being in it. I’ve obviously not been for a while. 😆

When I got home I felt completely exhausted.

I got changed into clean jammies and sat down with puppy Calaidh. It was only 11.50am and I was done for the day. I was yawning my head off.

I felt much calmer when I made the decision to relax and stop trying to do housework etc

Toe beans 🫘 🐾

So I’ve done nothing really in the house this weekend… and that’s ok.

I decided to watch Cekebrity Traitors on BBC iPlayer.

Then Gayle messaged to ask if I fancied a trip to IKEA.

Yes

Yes

Yes

Yes

And yes please!!

I jumped up and showered and got changed and was ready to go.

I spent £1.50 on this mat for the dog’s water bowls, it matches the kitchen perfectly!!

And so I’m back home after a lovely wee afternoon out.

I’m back in jammies and I’ve had more chickpea curry.

I’m relaxing with the pups and it’s soooo dark outside.

Craig’s still having a great time, training and exploring Doha. I am fairly certain there’s going to be a trip for me on the horizon.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Stay safe everyone 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✈️🇶🇦
