Hi NIRDI’s!
@canuk-gal and @Jimmianne glad you ladies didn’t divert my earrings to your house. Good plan though. Thank you both for the compliments.
@bling_dream19 thank you. I am pleased with my earrings. The perfect size. Nice you woke up happy and rested; sweet. Good plan to organize the basement; that is Marty’s mess so I just ignore it.
@Jimmianne your garden is gorgeous and what a difference. You put in a LOT of work on it but wow what a view.
@missy yes I’ll work on more pages for seniors this weekend. I love the Snoopy t-shirts. I might get one of those anniversary ones. Wow that is quite a walk; I bet you guys were hungry and did get quite a workout. Gorgeous photos though.
@Niffler75 we are overcast right now; it’s pretty dark out there. We have the same weather. That’s great you are enjoying the colored gemstone course.
@Austina I was leaning towards the bezel style band too and had it narrowed down to the 2 ruby bands so I asked Marty which one he liked and he’ll always go for the unique one. I do think the earrings match my pendant really well. Nice you went for a drive and walk today; darn you punctured a tire. Glad you can get it fixed on Monday. Auctions can be strange; things go really high or for a great deal. The right bangle is out there for you and it will work out perfectly when you find it. I totally agree movie a dog that far would be traumatic for them. That puppy is a cutie.
@Mamabean enjoy Shatzie’s visit tomorrow.
Today went by tortuously slow for me. I was a good girl and didn’t hit the snooze on my alarm. Work wasn’t super busy so I just watched for the FedEx truck. They showed up about 2:30. I made peanut butter cookies which seem to be all I ate for supper so far.
Take care.

Here is an ear shot - blurry though. I have an awful time getting selfies.
Marcy, look how pretty you are. Beautiful skin and hair, and those earrings!
You must be over the moon. I’ll bet they sparkle like crazy when they move.
Enjoy in good health!!!
Thanks for noticing that I put a lot of work into the garden. Easy when there is nothing else to do LOL
Here is the new gate. It’s a bit funky and rustic! He usually does more formal work, often using manufactured stamped parts, but for some reason, he made mine on the anvil. I was happy when I saw the flowers, each one is a little different.
It suits my personality.
Here is the formal gate he made for my neighbor.
More coffee needed! Back later. xx

Happy FriYAY friends! It's a gorgeous spring day here I started my weekend plans early @Austina and @missy I went to bed at 11pm last night and woke up about 10:45am and I feel much happier. After my awful day Tuesday I knew I couldn't pull a regular working day on Friday. So I just worked today 1230 til 2pm. My husband said I looked so much younger and happier when I woke up. So, this weekend I'll be doing what I do best....sleeping It will be a busy weekend, maybe we will get to organizing the basement? Still trying to figure out what to do regarding my dad's birthday.
@missy I LOVE the pic of the heart with yalls shoes, very sweet. And I just love seeing Bubbalah - the green pastels are so pretty, she loves being outside! And I LOVE the patriotic cat leggings! Hugs to you friend, I'm so happy you're at the beach.
@marcy I can't wait to see your ruby ring and maybe an ear shot of your gorgeous earrings!
@Jimmianne thanks for the beautiful magical pics!
I hope everyone has a wonderful FriYAY and restful weekend - love and sparkles to all
Loving all the photos @missy, I wish we could be at the beach with Dottie, it was her favourite place to run and splash in the sea. So glad she had that last holiday and beach walk before she died. Wow, you certainly got your exercise in yesterday, no wonder you were so hungry It certainly looks lovely and quiet there, and so relaxing to be able to walk without running in to other people. Did you sleep better after all that exercise?
If we’d known this pandemic was going to happen, we might’ve made enquiries about getting another rescue @Mamabean, but we’d decided to wait until we moved because of the transportation issues. Much as we miss Dottie, we just don’t want to have to air freight a dog, so we’ll just have to wait and perhaps get a pup or 2 once we’ve moved (if that ever happens!).
Hi to everyone amd thank you for remembering who I am LOL
Mamabean, when I read what you were having for dinner, I remembered my favorite saying...
Good shot of the egret, Missy!
Marcy, have you put your fluffy boy on a special diet now that he is lifting?
Your earrings are really super beautiful! Hope they arrive very soon.
Wow Marty France. You would come with??
Tekate, the good thing about not getting to France this year is not missing anything. To get the same effect as being here, get in bed and pull the covers over your head. Voila! The 2020 France experience!
Thank you @Mamabean and @bling_dream19
@bling_dream19 my pendant is a .75 carat. I think the size is a personal preference. I tend to like the pendant smaller than the stones in my rings but larger than my earrings. My ear lobes are small and I don’t like stones larger than 5mm on them when I wear studs.
@missy What a sweet boy! He is totally trusting sleeping like that. He must be use to Oliver so he’s not sleeping with one eye open anymore!@Mamabean hope you have a great visit with your DH today! Hugs and love.
@Niffler75 hope the weekend is nice and that you guys get to enjoy fresh air and sunshine. Hugs to you all.
@Slick1 thinking of you and Chase and sending hugs and healing vibes. XOXO.
@junebug17 hope things are relaxed by you and that you can enjoy the company of your sister while social distancing and that your kids are doing well. Sending you hugs and wishes for a happy weekend. XOXO.
@AV_ how are you dear AV? How did your week go? Any writing? Weekend plans? Hugs and love across the miles.
@Daisys and Diamonds hello Nicky. Hope life is going well and things are proceeding smoothly. Any baking this week? Hugs.
@Scandinavian how is your mother doing? And your grandmother? Hugs and happy Caturday Saturday.
@springerspaniel hope you have a lovely weekend. XOXO.
@Poodles4me hope all is well and happy Caturday Saturday and big and small dog Sunday. Days are speeding by. Hugs.
@Keeliamira any updates re the doctor appointments? How are you feeling? Sending continued healing vibes to you and gentle hugs.
Hello to everyone else. Hope all is well this Caturday Saturday. Speaking of cats.
Oh if only we could relax like they do.
Have a wonderful Caturday girls. XOXO.

Sharon, Nice try...wish I’d thought of it first.
Oh, whoops, I see you diverted the delivery. “There is no try, just DO”, right?
But be careful...have you ever been disciplined by a teddy bear??
My garden is really coming along. It’s all I do. The new gates are being installed today, so I can finally lock up my tools and garden furniture, and maybe even keep the badgers out. The garden is a two minute walk from my house up a steep ruelle, good for cardio. In these times of things feeling like they are not moving along, I am happy to remember that the garden was a chest high weed patch a year ago.
Here is before and after, with the old broken gate.
And the flower garden. The vegetable garden is the round patch at the back in the second photo.
And, finally, the walkway to the garden.
Have a good day, dear NIRDIs.

I always loved this @Jimmianne! I love whimsical art...I would really love to have a print of it...I would hang it in my kitchen!
That is sweet @canuk-gal that you had a good long ride yesterday. I am getting impatient to go cycling but Greg is still working on the bike. I swear he's rebuilding it. I tell him perfect is the enemy of good enough but then he tells me it's far from perfect and needs this overhaul because of all the cycling we did in 2019. Meanwhile we are mid May and no cycling in sight! Yesterday was in the mid 80s and I thought of you. I know you enjoy the heat and sin and it was both that yesterday. It was warm for me but it sure beats winter lol. Did you hear that there are no sun spots and we are in for an extended cooling period? I am not happy about that and sure hope it doesn't become an extreme weather event. Hugs and have a happy Caturday Saturday Sharon. XOXO.
