You don't have to be mad to be a Nesbitt but it sure helps!

Welcome to the house of fun
Now Ive come of age
Welcome to the house of fun
Welcome to the lions den
Temptations on his way
Welcome to the house of fun!


Jon had a lovely birthday yesterday and I cooked a lovely meal last night.
I say lovely as for once I did not prepare all of the veg myself, I bought a vegetable bake and a layered veg selection bothfrom Marks & Spencers. This is unheard of in our house but there was a reason...Jon had got up with s dodgy tummy, so I didn't want to spend an age preparing stuff which at the last minute had to be changed. Whilst i was in the shop I was thinking about tonight, our Wedding Anniversary. We had talked about going out for a meal but Sunday night can be a dodgy night to go out and we have work tomorrow. We talked about getting a take-away.....In the end I bought a M&S Indian Meal, which we will have tinight. No preparation needed, so I can get on with my jobs today, take Wilma on the beach, spend time in the garden and then enjoy the meal tonight.
As it happened, Jon took the afternoon off yesterday and we spent the time in the garden.
I did my hanging baskets and worked on the patio...pictures later, when all looking nice.

We went to the garden Centre and chose a rose bush. I chose the rose "Compassion" it seemed so appropriate.

19 years together...how time has flown!






Compassion
by Bernard Howe

What makes us feel so nice,
and everything feels so right?
Remember when we get some praise,
and it fills us with delight.

When someone showers us with love
or treats us gentle and kind.
To the troubles of our daily life
this will often make us blind.

If everyone would show more kindness
and practice it every day.
There is no telling what would happen
if we would be careful of what we say.

A smile will go a long way towards,
making someone feel at ease.
Another simple little thing
is to always use the word please.

And Thank you is another word
that lets people know you care.
Every little deed like these
does not go unaware.

Lets try to make the world
a better place to live within.
Those who show love for one another
usually don't live with any sin.

This month both my husband and I will have birthdays. We usually celebrate just one day. I have oft wondered if being born under the same sign makes us alike and also makes it harder for us to 'get along'...but we have been getting along for 36 years so I guess it as my Dad always said...signs are meaningless.
