I have to work today as I did last Friday, but I had Saturday and Sunday home.
Yesterday the birthday boy made a big pot of vegetable soup in the morning, then did an amateur chimney sweep in preparation for the approaching cold weather. The weather being warm at the moment, I then looked into the two beehives at 'Sunset'. There's still nectar coming in when the weather's good, they haven't tossed out the drones yet, although broodnest size is reducing considerably. I'll have a final extract of honey when I pack them for winter soon. I hope the good weather holds for a bit.
We had a little present opening celebration with a bottle of bubbly when Lib got home from work, and a some good red with roast beef for dinner. My presents were all well thought out which touched me. Lib gave me a pair of new pyjamas and a bottle of Southern Comfort, Gord and Rob a set of much needed pouring funnels, a travellers bathroom kit, and a pedometer, Meredith and Roger a book on ancient American civilizations and Elvie a set of greeting cards with birds on. And Jod gave me 3 tins of curried lentil and vegie soup last week.
I've said it many times, but again, "Ain't Life Grand".
