MAE ALL...

Mick...you may have to hold off on posting pics till you're back. Just googled Tobermory, wow. Are there all those coloured houses along the water? Is this close to where you are?

Googled Isle of Mull, you know it's Scotland's Eagle Island right? Glad your weather is behaving and I hope you two have a fabulous time.

Lav...you'll probably be posting as I type. Hope you had a good day and that all your crafts are done.

TG...hope you're having some down time. Not checking back as I don't want to loose this post.

Shout out to everyone else. Have a good night....PPQP

Good evening friends,

Cold & blustery today - WTH? It is supposed to be spring, right? I have to go out & cover up my baby herb plants so they don’;t freeze overnight.
Still catching up on last minute embroidery things but nearly done

Mick, I hope your day was enjoyable, thanks for the pics

PQ, hope your day was good & you’re not getting snowed on or anything, LOL

Hello to Cyn, Pauly, Det & Sam.

Have a nice night all!

Mae all -
PPQ, I have taken to copying my words before I hit “post”... just in case... I’ve never needed it yet, except for the day that I didn’t copy, and then of course I lost the post.

Mick, okay, I will open up my device where I can see things on Messenger... it all sounds gorgeous. So glad you can still post! Enjoy, and I hope the weather holds for you.

Lav, I am thinking of you, I know you are working hard to get ready - that’s great. Well, yes, we could use your moisture here. I don’t remember in my youth ever seeing fire danger warnings here in the city and environs... no rain, but at least the huge winds have died down. I go walk by the geese every day, cheering in the goose mommas sitting on their nests... it seems like it’s been weeks... today I saw one momma stretching her legs... that must have felt good. We reached 78 degrees today, so maybe they feel like the eggs will stay warm enough if they wander a bit. The dads are always watching out...

Okay,,enough nature reporting... 😉

Here’s hoping all are well - hi to Sam, Pauly, Det and anyone dropping by -

Hiya all. How are we today then?hope everyone is ok.the signal over here is very weak, and I can't get the Internet properly .that's why I sent pics earlier. We are just outside Tobermory. Where ppqp put the pic up..saw some seals earlier we are on the trip tomorrow. It was supposed to be Saturday but the weather is supposed to be bad so they swopped the days over .hope everyone is doing ok..

MAE ALL...

Sunshine today and warm in the morning. Then the wind kicked up and coming from the north it had a bite to it. Productive drama free day, the way I like them. My smoking cession appointment got moved to next Tuesday. Not real upset about that. Haha

Lav...did you cover up the baby herbs last night? Hope your weather was warmer today. No snow in the forecast, rain and that's ok. The irrigation system was turned on today and there were 4 gardeners out at there plots. I hope they're planting seeds as we could still be in for it. Hope you're nearly finished with the embroidering, sending good vibes for Saturday.

TG...I'm pushing my luck here just typing directly onto the post. Lots of times I'll type it in Word and then paste it here. I will copy it before I hit post. LOL Glad you're enjoying the geese. Don't get too close and get those Dad's upset.

Mick...glad I was close when I chose that pic. Hope the weather for your trip is good.

The oven just told me it's time to feed it so get the mac & cheese cooking. Have a good night all....PPQP

Greetings friends,

I am actually all ready for the event Saturday. Everything is packed up & ready to go, woo hoo!!!
Nice day here, sunny & dry. I did cover my baby plants last night & just covered them again for tonight since the low temp will be 34 degrees. Winter just doesn’t want to quit.

Cyn, I think the winds have died down here too, it was crazy for a few days. Glad you’re getting some nice outside time with the geese. I lost one of my oldest chickens today, she’s been unwell for about a week, felt sorry for her. The 8 young ones are doing well but one is definitely a rooster so he will be rehoused. Don’t want another 4:15 am alarm clock, haha!

PQ, looking forward to some more spring-like weather, someday, Lol. It will get here when it gets here.
Glad your day was good & drama free. Start thinking in terms of ‘not having to smoke’ anymore. Changing your thinking about stuff like that really helps you succeed when the day comes.

Mick, glad you’re enjoying yourselves & I hope the weather holds up for the remainder of your trip. Thanks for the pics, really enjoying them

Hello to Pauly, Det & Sam, hope all are well!

Have a nice night everyone.

Lav...Good that you're all ready for tomorrow. Here's wishing you big sales.

Looking forward to putting my feet up. Have a good night all....PPQP

Good evening friends,

All set & the truck is packed up. I thought we were going to be able to get into the venue tonight to set up but apparently I misread the instructions, haha. Will have to haul myself up & out early in. The morning I guess

Mick, your pics today were fabulous, thanks so much. Keep on having a good time

PQ, glad you had a rather decent sounding day. Nice when the boss is off & no one is getting in your face haha! Hope your weekend is fabulous!

Hello to friends, Cyn, Pauly, Det & Sam.

Have a nice night all!
