Cockerel On Time


 
Where has the day gone? 
It’s 6.30 and the bantam rooster has just tapped on the window for his supper.
I’m not going to choir
It’s been cancelled again 
More covid.
Sigh.
Greg, my little bathroom man came this morning and has arranged to start work, the week after next .
His quote is well under what I expected 
His electrician will repair the faulty cooker extractor fan too.
We talked a lot about dogs.
He also suggested that I book a skip.

I went to see our work counsellor this afternoon. 
She will support my counselling course and will supervise me in practice 

Everything seems to be slipping into place

    Mr. Cockerel seems to be quite happy with your yummy hand-outs to him!
    So glad to hear all is working out well for you and your plans for the loo work and counseling course.
    Hope all in the choir and area survive covid and that it doesn't spread.

    Hugs!

    Serendipity has played an excellent part in turning your life around for the better, all that's missing is that elusive other half. I'm so happy for you.

    There are various degrees of Covid so I hope your fellow choristers don't suffer too much with it. Fingers crossed.

  16. We used to have a rooster who would come up on the back porch for a snack. We called him Corn Flake. The children thought he looked like the fellow on the cereal box.

  17. My last Cockerel was called 'Big Business' (named after the Bull in Cold Comfort Farm. He was an absolute bast*rd.

  18. Well it sounds like the universe is finally delivering some good stuff your way. The Counseling course sounds right up your alley. The work you did with the Samaritans was a pointer in the right direction. Once you have qualified will you go out on your own and leave the Hospice work behind or will the Hospice be the integral part of your work?? Lovely Rooster; as Debra has said he has you well trained.

  21. He's a beauty isn't he, I do love it when they are in their prime and before some young whippersnapper comes along to push them off the top perch.

    It sounds like you are well on track for the counselling in the future, hopefully it will lighted the workload in some ways.
