"Industrious"...

...was the word that Hanne Lene used to describe our day so far. It is Sunday so I suppose in theory we should be taking it easy; though to be fair we spent the first couple of hours of the day reading the paper and pottering about.
Then HL went shopping and sorting out little servicing tasks on her car while I began a clean up on the barn after Thursday's flooding and friday's repair to the roof verge. The heavy rain had caused soot to leech through the lime mortar and give off a sour musty smell. It is quite a chore to scrub it all down with a strong cleaning solution, dry everything out and hoover everything but at the end it all felt fresh and welcoming and I am looking forward to working there now over the coming week.
We also put up the new all singing and all dancing bird feeding station, one of Hanne Lene's purchases from a well known four letter word supermarket beginning with L (no advertising allowed)...possibly the subject of a future Blip who knows...and even cleaned the cars, a job that I usually only do about once a year at most...there must be something in the air!
