LAZIN` ON A SUNNY AFTERNOON!

            

Hello everyone and welcome on this beautiful sunny Sunday.  It has been the most gorgeous day and I have been making the most of it.  We put all the garden furniture out today, then sat out there ourselves getting some much needed sun. Not for the purpose of tanning, but for wellbeing.  I always find it makes me feel terrific.  After doing a huge pile of ironing this morning it was nice just to sit out there and read the Sunday mags and do the the crosswords.  Later , I just lay on the recliner/sunlounger and contemplated my existance and had all these questions buzzing round in my brain....... Why is the sky so blue ?  Why do some clouds look like animals ?  Why do some birds have beautiful throaty voices while others just squawk ?  Why are wood pigeons so fat they can barely get off the ground?...........Why does that horrible family up the road have to have there music so loud while they have their BBQ?

This afternoon we took Jake on his country walk.  So armed with a doggy water bottle we set off along the country lanes.  When we reached St Mary`s church Jimcaught my arm, saying ` Shhssssh!`  I looked over and there, on the edge of the graveyard, grazing, was a young muntjac deer.  He didn`t know we were there so we stood by the hedgerow, and watched him till he finally slipped from view into the field that would take him home to the woods.  He wasn`t timid as they usually are but that was probably due to his tender age.  Jake watched him with interest but just sat and watched as well.  When we finally got home we were exhausted by what is a normal walk for us, but the heat made it seem twice as long. We went into the garden, me on the sunlounger and Jim sat at the table reading, whilst Jake found a shady spot under the magnolia tree, where he curled up and slept soundly until his dinner was ready. All in all it`s just been a fabulous lazy day...... but I think the forecast for this coming week is rain!  Well, we`ve had our one day of summer so it is a bit greedy to expect more......!  lolol   Bye for now and enjoy your day...:-)
