A bit of Waffle - 9/3/26


And it is Monday again.  We had a fairly quiet weekend - I was babysitting for my daughter on Friday evening and both children went to bed without too much fuss so that was good as I was on my own.

Saturday morning was an early start to accept deliveries at the Foodbank so after that I relaxed at home doing some reading and some knitting.

On Sunday I did manage to get out for a walk around the local lake which is still soo muddy.  But the buildings that had been subject to an arson attack have now been demolished and the debris removed so the walkway at the south end of the lake has now reopened.

Although it was dry it was cloudy and grey.





Lots of tufted ducks at the south end of the lake.

This is the site where the buildings were.

Today I spent quite a lot of time searching for a puzzle board I bought recently.  I have an older folding flat board for keeping puzzles safe but I also have one that rolls around an inflatable tube.  I was pretty sure the new one was out in the garden room but despite searching for it and around the whole house it took me ages to find it.  Of course it was in the garden room I just wasn't looking properly!  I wanted to lend one to my daughter as Nathan has a large puzzle he wants to do.  Annoyingly thought, having spent so long searching for it she then went home without it!

Now I'm off to collect some donations for the Foodbank from our local Tesco as the usual driver is unavailable.  Busy, busy busy!

  1. Bless you for working so hard for the local foodbank. I am still looking for something I put away a few months ago and can't find it anywhere. Making me a little nuts!! Glad you found the puzzle keeper. She will get it next time. Have a great week ahead!

    1. I know it's so annoying when you know something has to be in the house but you just can't find it!

  2. It sounds like you had a lovely weekend.
    That is a shame about the arson attacks but it's good the walkway is back open.

    1. Hopefully the site will be redeveloped into something all the community can enjoy.
