A slow start to the morning after a busy day the day before gardening but with that came exciting news that Myles was coming home!
So after watching my program on the TV I was up doing my normal morning things cleaning, tidying, eating and singing. 2 loads of washing done mine ready to go once Myles arrived and with a bit of time before he was due to arrive I decided to make use of our Costco trip and make some more brownies as there is still 5 bags of mix! All great water & Oil added went to get eggs from the fridge to find.. none. Bugger. Couldn't go out and get any as the rear tyre of the car needed air so I was stuck. Last hope text Myles and hope he reads it before he gets home & brings me eggs. Brownies on hold I pottered into the garden deadheading all the dead flowers that I never got around to the day before. Then a car noise.. OOH could be him.. Nope more workers for next door! This is teasing them having people turn up all day. He was later than his ETA so I could only hope he was buying me eggs when I could hear another car.. (Yes it is that quiet that you can hear cars coming from quite a way!) Assuming it was another person for next door I carried on trying to get as much as I could done before Myles arrived when a Subaru went whizzing up the drive way. HES HEREEEE!!! I jogged up the drive way to meet him to be given a bag and some water to hold very useful. He unloaded the car and we took his stuff down to the house where Tara had seen the car and me jogging and had got herself out of bed and was barking away. Soon as she caught glimpse of Myles her bark changed from there's someone here I'm not sure whats going on to OH MY GOD MYLES IS HOME!!! This was followed by a lot of howling and her running at him. (For an older dog with arthritis she sure did shift!) Myles was very excited to see her more so than seeing me and they had a bit of a reunion. I started to unpack his things to find my eggs! YES brownies were mixed and ovenated followed by clothes being washed. Whilst Myles was giving me dirty clothes I also got my present.. It was described as a small present and it was a size small present. I have got my very own Foti Fireworks Pyro Team shirt!! Hell yeah I was excited! We had a bit of a catch up with whats been going on whilst he has been away and shared photos of what we have both been doing. Whilst we had left over lasagna I informed Myles that we were going out for dinner at the local pub as it had been recommended by Deb. With that sorted Myles wanted to see what I had been doing in the garden and was pretty impressed with what I had done and with my ant bites!
With this he decided that he was going to do the mowing. I offered to help rake after I had sorted some washing and the dishwasher. This was fine and lovely as it was sunny. Whilst I was raking there was a noise followed by no more noise and dust... Lawn mower stopped and Myles looking under it I went to investigate. Belt had come off to back up to the garage to fix it. I went ridies and stood on a bar at the back which was good fun. After a long while we managed to fix it using a crowbar and some brute force. All put back together and he was off again more ridies and a trailer to put the sticks in Myles finished the mowing whilst I tided the sticks and rocks into the trailer. After this showers and a bit of TV time. Not long after this Deb was home and off again as she was going to a tennis comp with Ian.
With that we got ready and went off in search for dinner. Myles ordered Flat fish and chips and I had pork and chips! Both very lovely and 2 very full people we went back home for pudding (Brownies and icecreaaam) With David Attenborough on the TV we had a watch, well Myles did Laura fell asleep pretty swiftly after a very exciting day. When she woke up Myles declared bed time was it was 9:30 and we did just that very.
