A Feast...

...for the Dickie Birds!
We've got a sack of bird food and also a tub of Flora marg which I thought was vegan but I had mistakenly bought the one with buttermilk in and I also had 1/2 a tub of cocunut fat so I melted the fats, added a load of seed and porridge oats and made lots of fat balls for my little feathered friends. There are more of them in tubs in the fridge!
It's tough for them when it's frosty and the soil is so hard, they can't dig up worms and grubs.

It keeps trying to snow here but the flakes are tiny and not lying. After lunch we watched a David Attenborough programme about sea life which was really good and snorkelling used to be my favourite thing to do. Anyway, I fell asleep and missed it.

Sabrina's hubby John works as a carpenter/set bulider on 'Outlander' and all the workers get Covid tested once a week. Yesterday - their first day back at work - his partner tested positive so they were both sent home and had to stay off. However, Chris said he couldn't possibly have caught the virus as he hasn't been anywhere or visited anyone over Christmas so he booked himself an NHS test and that came back negative! So they're back at work tomorrow. A relief for them both as they are self employed and don't get paid in absence.

I couldn't believe what I was seeing in the Washington this morning. Why is he not out of the White House immediatley?
Is it because people are scared of a backlash and what he could do to them and their jobs afterwards? It beggars belief.
I hope those thugs look back on their actions with shame.

Well, I'm not sure what to do now.
Even though I've got so much time on my hands, and I don't have to do something if I don't want to, I feel guilty if I don't use my time productively. It's like I've wasted my precious time but sometimes all I want to do is think. I've never allowed myself that luxury before so it is quite alien to me.
I do have a long list in my head of things I could/should do but there's no rush these days.
I think I'll make a proper list anyway so I can tick things off as I do them.

Time for another cuppa!

Thanks so much for comments, stars and hearts.
Stay safe and healthy :-)X
