Peace at last

Winston has gone home.
DGD Eileen is in bed and asleep.
My L&M has gone to bed with his new book, Spider Rain by John Locke.
There is just me and the quiet glug of the fish tank.

That glue from the fish tank can be quite tranquil, enjoy!!

Watching the fish tank is more interesting and more soothing that watching TV, that's for sure.

You do have a funny way of writing and I love reading it.. I hope things will get better for you and hope your hubby will improve with the time off work. I know what it's like to wonder how you'll survive to the next pay day, I was like that when I was first divorced, we lived on baked potato meals and hardly ever put on the heating, we had an open fire and the 1987 hurricane had just happened so plenty of wood around. We were warm but smelt of wood smoke as I dried the washing in the lounge at night.. now years later I am in a much better place, met my DH 12 years ago and been married 10 years, but still watch what I spend. Keep smiling and keep that sense of humour, you're brilliant!.. Bests Chris

Stew

Y'days lamb was delicious and there is lots left. So today I'm making a stew, I'll use half of the left over lamb and add onion ...
