6/6~6/7

Day Eleven/Twelve

I can almost feel your betrayed emotions towards me. I know, I know. You're disappointed in me for not posting yesterday, I get it. But I have a very good explanation why I did not write.... I was playing with cats until 10:00.

Let me go over both days for you, then. Well YESTERDAY morning, I got up, had breakfast, and went to go get my nails done! OH my goodness, it is SO nice actually having nails. I've got to break my habit of chewing them, and I think this may help me tremendously! We will see, won't we? After I got mine done, Nanna got hers done as well. Then we took Agnes and my dad and got lunch at the Badger's Holt, giving the dogs a little walk around before the meal. I had a chicken breast wrapped in bacon in a cream sauce that was SO GOOOOOOOD!! Then we took Agnes home, and gave the dogs a longer walk around the moor. We came home after that and ate dinner, which was a mixture of a bunch of things--called "batching it"-- with some potatoes. Then I went around next door at 8:00 to cuddle Frances' cats until 10:00. J'ADORE LES CHATS*; GIVE ME A BREAK.

THIS morning, I ate my usual breakfast (I think by now you should know what that is...) and went into Buckfastleigh to shop around the stores for a bit. We went into quite a lot of antique/junktique shops and charity shops. Some may call it thrift-shopping, even. Whatever, I just call it browsing. Then we went to Newton Abbot for a bit more of that, and had lunch at this cafe that serves TONS of G.F. foods. I had a Greek salad with  pita bread, hummus (over here, it's spelled 'humous' or something), black and green olives, and feta cheese chunks. MMMMM. Next, we went to pick up Jessica from school for a mini-birthday treat from us to her, for we won't actually be here for her REAL birthday, sadly. We went to the cider press, and she played around in the park for a bit and got some mango ice cream, her new FAV. We took her home, and we all had our tea. WE had spaghetti bolognaise (G.F. of course), and it was GREAT! I absolutely adore spaghetti.

Changes...When you want a big change to happen in your life, you ask friends or family for guidance. They may not give you the answer you want, but it may be what you should do. You think about maybe just doing what you want, because  oh what the heck; it's YOUR life, so you should totally be able to do whatever the heck you want to do... right? Not always right. I will keep this in mind for the next month or so, and I hope you do too.
