This morning's sunrise. Just so beautiful and it reminded me of Gone With the Wind. I am having to rest a bit this afternoon - my poor brain just keeps saying "sleep" but I am listening out for lot numbers at an on-line auction. The first lot went over what we wanted to pay, but the lot WE were selling, failed to make the reserve. Sod's Law at work!
Husband has taken daughter to the GP as she is unwell (on two fronts - such a worry) and to collect her car which had to be rescued with steering issues on Friday. 'tis an "intermittent fault . . ."
So apologies for being quiet - a busy weekend has caught up with me. Off for a nap now and hope to post something more exciting later.
Nap interrupted before it started, by the Agent booking in another viewing for this week - so we have one on Thursday and one on Friday now. I have been cleaning windows, touching up paintwork, tidying things away etc. Please send positive thoughts our way please - for poorly daughter.
Well we seem to share the same sunrise today. It was absolutely beautiful, shading down to soft pink/soft blue and then cream. Hope your daughter is not too ill for long.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovelly sunrise. T has had one problem for quite a few months now and has gone privately for treatment, but problems still continue . . .
DeleteHope all gets sorted and you as wellx
ReplyDeleteThanks Jill. Time will tell.
DeleteThank you for sharing the beautiful photos as ever, and here's hoping all health issuesare resolved soon and the viewings are fruitful
ReplyDeleteThanks Tanya. A worry on all fronts though.
DeleteThoughts for your daughter, and thoughts for you as well...….
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Thanks Jackie - feeling a little frazzled, I will confess!
DeleteSo sorry to hear your daughter is unwell - sending positive thoughts. Good Luck with the viewings!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a worry RR and I seem to have mislaid my magic wand . . .
DeletePositive thoughts for your daughter - I am sure you would rather be ill yourself than worry about your daughter so hope all is well.
ReplyDeleteHope the viewings go well too
Oh gosh, you know exactly how I have been thinking - I would lay down on a train track to make her better! The viewings loom . . .
DeleteMy daughter has had health issues similar to Tam's--on at least one 'front' as you put it. It can be discouraging to go through a course of antibiotics and have an infection making a return visit.
ReplyDeleteHouse viewings: how we labor for them--hours of work to make things look just so and the viewing over so quickly. Did I ever mention the time that the realtors failed to notify me of an early morning showing: I was in sweat pants, at my sewing machine with the breakfast dishes still in the sink--felt quite flustered by the unannounced arrival on the doorstep,but the couple bought the house!
Tam's spoken to her (PRIVATE!!) Consultant now - and yes, she did have to go Private to get the treatment she knew she needed), and he has said what she is experiencing is par for the course, so keep taking the tablets!
DeleteOh my goodness - we had a "they're at the gate" viewing too, and they loved the house despite its untidiness. Keith always says, it's the house not what's in it, but I like to have everything just so, being a perfectionist and not wanting to be judged!
Sharon - thank you for these kind words. Tam may have to see her consultant again - a real hit in the wallet now she is working for herself.
ReplyDeleteAs for the house viewings - as you know we had a similar, an they really liked the house, but we have to see if theirs will sell . . . Ifelt a tad flustered too (with my knickers still hanging on the indoor driers!!
Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog, and I'm glad I've found yours! Any chance you could share your Pear almond cake recipe? Looks divine! And.. wishing your daughter good health and healing!
ReplyDeleteI will put the recipe up later Karen Ann, an lovely to have you visit. Thanks for your kind thoughts for Tam.
DeleteHugs BB for you and Tam. Just take it steady. Things will happen when you least expect them to - tiz always the way. Too beautiful a home my sweetheart. Wish could oblige. But fingers and toes plaited for you in this regard, and for both you and Tam with the health issues. Be kind to yourself for a change. Take care Tricia x
ReplyDeleteWell, all we can do is wait Pattypan, and Lord knows we have been patient . . . I have the gut feeling the London Lady ain't gonna come up with the money, so that's one out off my list . . . Having some me time now!
