A quiet, sunny Sunday, with cut garden roses in my favourite vase.
I’ve talked to friends on teams, doom scrolled and drank hazelnut coffee.
I’ve shampooed Mary’s old lady accidents from the living room carpet and hand washed the cushions which dried almost immediately in this heat.
My friend Polly gave me this beautiful Lino print she designed and made herself and I’ve moved paintings around to make room for it.
I ate cold chicken and broccoli for supper and the Welsh shared the white meat with eyes shut.
It’s muggy and whatever black cat is at the moment living me is asleep in the spare room
And so am I
A good relaxed day.
ReplyDeleteI like that print. Nice work
It’s lovely isn’t it
DeleteLove the roses & lady's mantle in your favorite vase!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant lino print.
Sounds like a peaceful Sunday in Trelawnyd and the Gray household.
Hugs to you, belly rubs for Mary & Roger, and gentle head strokes to Weaver & Bun.

ReplyDeleteHasn’t she just ?
DeleteBeautiful floral display and that Lino cut is stunning, sounds like you have had a lovely Sunday wind down, enjoy your evening. Jan in Castle Gresley
ReplyDeleteI’m sat with a gin and tonic in a quiet cottage. No tv no music , just Mary’s heavy breathing and the sparrows chatter in the honeysuckle
Delete"Lazy Sunday afternoon, I've got no mind to worry. Close my eyes and drift away..."
ReplyDeletePolly is very talented. I bet that lino print looks stunning on your wall. xx

DeleteIt sounds like a perfect Sunday to me. I washed my old Peggy’s pee rugs today. She doesn’t have accidents, she does it on purpose where I can’t see her, always on the mats. She goes mostly outside but isn’t a fan of wet grass near her butt so she prefers her inside loo. It is cool here today, just perfect.I hope you have two 🐈⬛ in the house tonight.
ReplyDeleteThe Lino print is superb. Your friend is a talented artist. You'll find a special place for the print.
ReplyDeleteA quiet Sunday is enjoyable.
What a lovely day you describe, John! You are a wonderful wordsmith.
ReplyDeletePolly's lino print is beautiful and what a perfect gift for you to enjoy forevermore!
Hope both cats are still home and peaceful and that Mary and Roger are equally peaceful.
Hugs!
It was a 'stinker' here too yesterday, and difficult to sleep last night. Lovely print; she's a talented lady.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever gardener your sister is (and you too!) those flowers a beautiful. And as for that print, is is spectacular, and will hold its head up high amongst your other art. It looks, on my screen, like it's a bluey-grey, am I right? I hope whichever cat has disappeared has found a home. Independent living sounds more like Weaver than Bun, but cats are strange creatures. The Kipling line "I am the cat who walks by himself and all places are alike to me" comes to mind. I hope both decide to live at your place, and to be civilised!!
ReplyDeletethat Lino print is gorgeous. what a special gift! And *a* black cat in the spare room......what could be better? Knowing *who* it is might be....but we take what we get and enjoy that!
