Clocks took a step forward, I took a step back...

What a glorious day!! Wall to wall sunshine and it's only just got dark :O)
Today was full of lovely scenery on another fab walk in the countryside. Hubby and I took off to a local nature reserve and reservoir for a stroll in the sun (even got my arms out, that hardly EVER happens). We saw a huge heron, 2 grebes flirting on the water, 2 swans serenely swimming and sadly a squashed mouse :O(

On the way home we stopped in at a plant nursery for some seed potatoes and herblings for my newly dug veggie patch. I spent most of the late afternoon potting, trimming, digging and watering...bliss. Soap making is on the agenda for tomorrow, it doesn't get much better than this ;O)
I have told myself this is the first small step towards regular time out to relax, step off the treadmill of life and find the real me. One can only go hell for leather for so long...it does nothing for ones creativity and inspiration. Pics will follow shortly...
Till next time ...

Guilt free me time...

Today I thought I'd take advantage of the fantastic sunshine and get oot there...I've just returned form one of the most lovely walks in ages!! I've been out since about 11 this morning and took my self off for a long stroll along the river. Along the way what should I see but 5 or 6 swallows (already!!) 2 herons, about 10 huge cormorants and...wait for it...a kingfisher, I know I couldn't believe it.

 I've also had a bit more of a tidy up in the garden whilst being serenaded by the first frog chorus of the year. For the chop today, the clematis and willow which were both overhanging the pond. My froggies can hapily bask in the sun now, I think their singing was a thank you.No doubt the harsh treatment my shrubs have had will make them all go mental in the summer, anyhoo i'm of for s sit down and a well deserved cup of tea, sayonara for today peeps
