This and That day

 I could have done without going out from home today ..but needs must. 

The vase necks and bowl rims got cling filmed...packed lunch made....and out!!

Shopping...I'm glad that I can do that at the most once a week ....then eat lunch sitting in the car. Drive two miles and park in a convenient place..that is also free and unrestricted and pointing in the right direction !

Enquire at the bank about my travel insurance as I haven't been able to phone or go online...no, I don't need to say that I'm going....no change in health and it is less than a month. No extra payment needed!

Waterstones bookshop for a hot chocolate...relax!!!

Then French Conversation..discussing such words as Bah! Alors! Du coup!...en  fait ! Bof!

words that sound similar..but aren't..

Boeuf....Bof....Beauf.....how to learn a language...have fun!!

I had to leave half an hour early to travel to the Artists Collective AGM...which was relatively painless and was over in an hour and a half!! Aided by homemade cake of course!!

I came out of the glass artist's home..an old school..and the sky was dark and the stars shining brightly...it is dry tonight and will get down to freezing. Over to the East it will get to about -5⁰

The vases and bowls are totally wrapped now as I wont get to them before Sunday.

A million years ago when I was taking French in school, our textbooks were from France and always had this phrase as an expletive -- "zut alors!" Of course no French speaker in Canada would ever be caught dead uttering anything so stupidly lame.

You really get out and roam around.

zut and alors separately now..not together!

That sounds like a busy day. Cake always makes things better. You have been busy with your pots.

That's a lot to pack into one day!

gz said...

too many different things!!

Susan said...

You have very full days and many tasks to keep you busy.
As the weather starts to warm and improve, being outside will be more enjoyable.

Cake although it depends on the flavour is always good, my favourite is carrot cake.

I didn't do very well in French at school, think I got a CSE grade 3.

...travel insurance seems to be important with universal health care!
