Grey.

A very damp grey morning today left the garden plants glittering with water filled crystals. The sun never really came out at all today, just unremitting greyness. I was scrubbing out the waste food caddy on the main grass (not wanting soap and bleach over my garden) and a neighbour commented that we were supposed to have some sun. That was a dud forecast.

Tuesday's Pilates made itself felt today so I was happy just to get through my daily routine. I put the green glasses up for sale on Gumtree before anymore of the glasses get broken. Later I had another go at altering the crop top taking out my last set of tacking and trying a different approach and taking in the side seams instead of tightening up the lower edge. As I know there is no chance of getting back to a trim tummy (I must have had one once) I won't ever wear the crop top without the over vest but I still like things to fit.

Speedy had a bit of a shock when his metal water dish got caught in the plastic cone and flipped up over his head before clanging to the marble floor with much noise and water everywhere. I give him time to drink and wash when I take the cone off so that he can eat but the minute he licks his foot the cone goes back on.
