Windfalls

I was in a really deep sleep, and I was awoken by TT shouting at BB to wake up.  It sounded like TT was struggling to rouse BB.  There were a couple of disasters this morning, first my toast got stuck in the toaster – totally jammed .  I was alerted to this by the smoke coming out of the top.  No damage done, except to my toast – which was the last piece of bread!  Then just as I was heading out to meet a  friend, I noticed that one of our window boxes had been blown off and smashed on the ground.  What a  mess.  I had to leave TT to sort it out – after he had unjammed the toaster.  Both distractions form work for him!
I had a nice catch up with my friend.  We had to wait a while to get a seat in the café, so it all became a wee bit rushed in the end as she had to get back home for her wee boy.  I then did a bit of shopping and picked up lunch before racing up the road to feed the boys.  My afternoon as spent doing housework, unsuccessfully trying to buy a bottle of gin and cooking tea.  I decided to go for a  wee walk before I ate, as it was still daylight.  Bad timing – it rained.  Never mind, I picked up some ice cream for a very grateful BB.
I tried to find something to watch on TV and having just finished The Dutch House, I tried to decide what to read next.
It’s been really windy here this past week.  Today I walked past all these windfalls.
