What a quiet day today.

Bama, I hope your DD is home by now. I don't post often but I read how difficult and challenging it is for you these days with your DH's situation, I hope you see progress soon, what with his health and paperwork and other worries I suppose.

Hi L.Ann, interesting to see Little Bit is now at camp instead of school, is it the same as last year ?

helia I have no idea about Mother's Day in Germany, I may google it. Good luck with your very social Sunday.

Kittykatt I didn't know about the male flowers starting before the female flowers. Thanks for the info, I won't feel as frustrated this time as the previous years - sometimes you think it's a pity the plant took so much energy to make this big large star-shaped flower, only to go to waste because there is no suitable "partner" for the flower at the right time... I hope you've had a peaceful Sunday, your menu sounds delicious as always - although the dessert wouldn't be my favorite I'm afraid. But your DH and you seem to like coffee cakes and coffee desserts.

Well I was productive part of the day. DS7 woke up late, with a headache, didn't eat lunch, slept in the afternoon on the couch (very unusual for him), and then was sick... some stomach bug and fever. He ate a tuna sandwich around 7pm and is now asleep again. I hope he can go to school tomorrow.
We have to get up early to drive DS10 at the 6.15 departure for his 5 day school trip. He was very excited this afternoon. We packed his bag with the list the teacher gave us. It took us a long time, but I guess it's important he sees what he packs, and he's learning travel skills probably.

TODOs before sleep :
list for the week
before bed usual (short) self-care routine
HRT
pick clothes for tomorrow, set alarm for 5.15am

Have a peaceful evening and night, everyone !

I hope he has fun, FFB. Little Bit’s school runs 8 different 4 day camps over the summer. She will do two of them. This week’s is Make Believe.

Hello Helia, L Ann, and FFB!

Helia, you certainly have a busy day ahead! You're right, and Beryl Cook did have several cats. Her most famous feline was a beloved Siamese cat named Cedric, who frequently appeared in her artwork. She also owned a well-known tuxedo cat named Ruby. Her affinity for cats inspired many of her iconic, "chonky" cat paintings, such as the famous piece Four Hungry Cats.

L.Ann, Little Bit's camp sounds fun!

FFB, what a good idea to pack with DS10 - that way he can be sure he has every on the list, and, as you say, he is learning life skills. I hope DS7 feels better soon.

This afternoon was hot and humid, but the evening has been beautiful - lve tidied the back garden, sowed my seeds and tidied and watered the front garden

Hello, all. I wandered off yesterday to lounge and play games, and today was weirdly tired. So I'd get up for a bit and end up back in bed. I hope that this time will take, and that I get my shower done.
