I wanted to pick some of our daffodils from the garden, its always nice to have flowers when you've had a good clean. I walk around the bungalow on the path that goes all the way round and call that exercise! Its a lot easier now on the north side, where Dh put some grab bars and patio slabs on the two very steep steps as the back is lower than the front.
So what have I actually done?...
.....I have answered emails, done my Welsh homework, learnt a nice new long word. gwyddoniaeth= science! Isn't that a great word?
I chatted to a friend on the phone.. looked at FB..so more or less have done 'dim' ..nothing.
Sometimes isn't it nice to have a nothing day.. but tomorrow I'll have to pull up my socks and clean, clean, clean! My new Thursday routine starts with a hairdresser.. she is one of those women who says everything is lovely. She reads a lot and started a book group, where members meet once a month for coffee and talk about the book they're presently reading. Last week she was delighted to take 6 books we'd read, saved us a trip to the charity shop.
I've made time to visit your blogs, hope jabblog, is better soon, pain is no fun. Love reading your blogs and comments.. so many of us remembered the start of covid, doubt we'll ever forget. I can see it in history books, but will people in the future really realise how it affected the ordinary every day person, I doubt it.
Happy days, today the sun is shining although the grass was covered in frost our daffodils are blooming lovely.

It's good to have a nothing day sometimes. I didn't do a lot yesterday, but I've just finished this mornings cleaning and might pop out this afternoon. Your daffs look so cheery. Enjoy your day
That definitely is a welcoming sight. Follow the yellow border to the door!
Isn’t it great how the blogging world brings us together. I always look forward to updates from fellow bloggers like you, Chris.
I am envious that you have daffodils already.
I miss having a good house cleaner. We have a monthly cleaning here in the independent living complex whether we want it or not but she only does the kitchen and bathroom surfaces and the floors without moving a single stick of furniture. I suspect it's more for tracking to make sure we old people aren't hoarding or having unregistered pets or doing dangerous stuff like burning candles than it is about the actually cleaning.
I love that you call those days Diane days! Good to have a sense of humor about her cleaning. :)
It sounds like you had a good day though and the daffodils are beautiful!
Ardderchog! O how I hear you about things being left "not quite right!"
I have tried to leave you a private message but there is no way I can find to do so. I really like your blog.

Ardderchog! I hear you on things being left not quite right! A frustration I am learning to live with. I do enjoy your blog, and am trying to send you a private message but cannot find out where, if you have a way could you be so kind as to let me know? Thanks, Diolch, Debbie
The daffodils are amazing. Mine are still just inch tall leaves. But we've had good weather this week and I've walked 5 days in a row. Long time this winter since I've been out to do that. Otherwise, reading and crocheting.
I find a doing day is often followed by a nothing day... it all evens out
Well, it sounds like you had a good day.
Your daffodils look lovely.
All the best Jan
A nothing Day is good for you. Sorry to hear you are in pain. I had pain for nearly 12 months until the doc got my medication right. Now I don't feel much pain thank goodness. I hope you keep improving. The daffodils are beautiful.
Sometime a ' do nothing ' day is just what is needed.
Your daffodils are so pretty!
