Let me say up front: I hate daylight savings time. Why can't we just leave it alone? It takes time for me to adjust and since I really like clocks, it takes a while to change them all in my house. But since this is the second...

41Combedale I find the daylight savings a nuisance too. My problem is that my cats do not realise what is happening and they wake me up at cat time every morning for their breakfast. At present this is 7.30 a.m. An hour later or an hour earlier messes up their routine...

Happy Wednesday Everyone! snow was expected for today but a few flurries fell and then it all turned to a misty rain. Thankfully it's above the freezing mark so doubtful it will freeze and turn to ice. It's funny how when you...

41Combedale @rebelann I have solved this problem by making a list. When I am really busy I mark it with the time in which each job has to be done. I tend to under estimate this so the next job has to make up for the lost time. No opportunity to be diverted after that....

41Combedale We were told to expect snow overnight which worried us because we had a hospital appointment today. It didn't snow until about 6 a.m. and then very heavily. We are easily snowed in here so expected to have to cancel. However my husband had just completed...

Day 264 Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to...

41Combedale The reassurances and promises of God are a real foundation on which we can live full lives with with hope renewed every morning. However some of his promises are conditional. for instance the promise in Jeremiah that we will find God. The condition is that...

I had a visit from a huge bird that was chatting at my window. Just now I put a few slices of bread on the window ledge. I do hope it does not drop down in the supers lap. He has access to the backyard. I turned...

41Combedale Magpies land on our window sill, they come after the left over cat biscuits which I put out for a midnight snack for the cats. They are rather brave when they have chicks to feed. Unfortunately they are inclined to leave an unwanted present while they are...

Sometimes for breakfast, I enjoy a banana-walnut muffin with a fresh cup of coffee. They have to be one of my favorite treats, even though I didn't bake them myself. At times, I do bake muffins but I haven't done this lately. I'm...

41Combedale These are favourites of mine too. They are quite filling and we are only two people, so I always freeze half of them. They keep well in the freezer and warm up beautifully afterwards. I lower the sugar content which means we can enjoy muffins without too...

41Combedale Good idea not to go to his home, he might be wanting to do some fishing of his own. I had an acquarium when I was a teenager but the goldfish kept jumping out of the aquarium. I don't think I knew how to look after them very well.

41Combedale The friends I know who have learned Greek as adults learned it when their children went to Greek schools and came home with the language - so in a way the children taught them!

41Combedale I am hoping to be able to read Greek, I can practice speaking it but Ilelarn more by seeing it written than by listening to shows,- the people speak too quickly for me to separate the words.

41Combedale I live in Greece but I don't have much connection with Greeks who can't speak English. I think t is a drag for them to try and speak to me if they are also older people. The young ones like to use the English they have learned at school so that is nice.
