ODAT - Saturday

[Bessie]

Morning all - fabulous morning here. Going to get out with the dogs when I log off here.

I can sit at my laptop and look out of the window across the fields ... though mostly I look out on an area of weeds and scruff land between the house and the holiday let. We were going to level it, sow some grass seed and maybe plant a couple of fruit trees but I've been watching the birds attracted to the different weeds and insects and realised that we need to make it a wild flower meadow area. They are harder work but it would be so worth it to see all the beautiful wild flowers and grassed and the wildlife it would attract.

There is already a rabbit living out there! It must be nuts, 3 rabbit killing dogs and one rabbit killing cat in this house and most of the holiday home guests have dogs too. Maybe it likes living dangerously?! :H

My BGPs had a hole in yesterday so I'm putting on a fresh new pair today and my cap from Greeny to remind me all day not to waver. We're out to dinner tonight and I am driving so there's my BFZ (Big Fat Zero) all set in the drink tracker.

That's me done - ready to take on the day.

Love to all to come.

Hi Bessie - :new: Just had to say, i love your idea of the wild area - if you want to help things along, you can buy packs of wildflower seeds and just chuck em around - beautiful - mine include Corn Cockle, Poppy, Cornflower, Ragged Robin, Gilia, Marigold, Chrysanthemum, Linum, Daisy, Nigella, Cowslip, Campanula, Feverfew, Larkspur, Borage, etc - just gorgeous - it'll look gorgeous wild and plus be a haven for wildlife :h

Yes, sounds like you have the Rambo of rabbits living there lol.

Have a lovely day

ODATERS!!!

Hi bessie, ellabella (welcome!) and firefox and all to come.

Having recently (this week) limbed the trees and hung feeders in the front yard and , I look out the window from the computer and watch the songbirds, hummingbirds and one determined squirrel. I know he hates it when I knock on the window right when he's precariously hanging by one foot nibbling away at the suet cake. Ah, life's simple pleasures:H:H

It's a relatively coolish morning and I think I'll jump in the shower, the car and go visit the zoo. There's a wooded trail between the botanical gardens and the river that I can walk and that sounds like a good way to spend the morning (instead of washing the car or mowing the grass). I didn't have nice mornings like that when I was drinking.

Let's all toast to an AF day with a club soda and lime in our BIG GIRL PANTS!!! And bessie in her cap.
