The negatives
This bloody weather, geez winter clothing on Monday and localised flooding and by Friday back into spring and this weekend it'll feel like we've moved back to Dubai.
The positives
A lovely relaxing week with exercise, friends, family, coffees, time in the garden and video calls with the grandchildren.
Saturday 6th June Off to Seaford Parkrun, bloody hell it was so wet and windy, I was drenched through before I arrived and it was so windy I nearly took off having my photo taken with the sign. The rain felt like I was being pelted with needles. 2.5km out and a turn round and back. Then back the same route into the wind and rain again to the town to meet Peter for breakfast, then off to visit my 94 year old Uncle and raid his chocolate tin. Back to my Aunts for a shower, lunch get into our wedding attire and off to my cousins wedding in Eastbourne. Another cousin was there in the evening with his wife. We usually only get together at funerals these days so it was nice to see them at a happy event. We were back in Seaford by 9pm with aunt and mum.
Sunday 7th June we left around 9am to beat the traffic and as we had a 5 hour drive ahead of us dropping mum and aunt in Lydney before driving back to Malvern. We were 2 miles short of the M25 on the M23 and came to a stand still for almost 2 hours due to an accident. We got home at 4.30pm. Chilled out watching TV and reading and had an early night. I also hung the summer curtains to block out all the light in the bedroom.
Monday 8th June Staff meeting after work, home and changed and off to the gym to legs, bums and tums. I was early so had a coffee first and a long chat with my niece on the phone. Home to dinner, bath and bed after I spent time photographing items to upload onto vinted.
Tuesday 9th June Peter out for the day visiting child 2 and family. I came home from work, had dinner then out to the gym for a spin class. I then spent some time in the gardening weeding the raised bed and weathering out some plants I'd grown from seed in the raised beds.
Wednesday 10th June After work I had dinner, got changed, met my friend for a coffee and went to a new class at the gym 'stretch and mobilise' I spent over an hour talking to my cousin on the phone in the states, had a bath and got into bed at 11pm. The squirrels are digging up their nuts and leaving holes in the lawn.
Thursday 11th June Coffee out with a friend straight from work. Home via a food shop and I didn't get in till gone 7pm. I put the fridge stuff away and just left the rest on the dining room table and was in bed by 9pm after a quick dinner and a bath.
Friday 12th June Peter collected mum and aunt as we're all off to the Three Counties Show in the morning. We met in town for a coffee, did a bit of shopping while Peter went home to cook dinner and after a bath and watching some TV I had an early night. Checking out the weather for my trip to Paris.
