Saturday was a no pressure day. I was on top of watering at Pinecone Park and at Ali and Pete’s place, so there was no rushing to water or do anything at all. We went for our morning walk at 8:30. It had warmed up from 12° to 15° and it was a bright and sunny day. Once back home, I tried to do a bit of my SPACE homework to ensure that I didn’t forget all that Aidan had taught me about the software I was to begin using. And then we went into the village to go to the big Saturday morning Farmers’ Market. I hadn’t been all year.
It was busy at the market. I didn’t buy anything; we just walked around and then we came home for lunch. After lunch, I got myself onto the recliner in sunshine to warm up. I think I had a wee nap, and when I opened my eyes, the sky had completely clouded over.
The afternoon was spent reading and doing domestic chores as the cloud cover thickened. We went for our afternoon walk and encountered a lovely group of four women cyclists with whom I had a really lovely visit. Then we came home and I lit the fire to offset the gloominess of a dark and cool Summer day.
I went to bed very early. I was very tired, and just before turning off the lights I heard rain falling on the roof. It was a brief and gentle rain, but it was rain and I was thrilled because today, My Day, is a watering day at Pete and Ali’s and here at home. But I’m Zooming with John and Bunny this morning, and I’m meeting Eoin and François for fish tacos at Silva Bay at 11:00.
