2022 Project 365 // Days 267 - 273

 

24th September 2022
The lovely Ellis reopened her shop after maternity leave and being a fellow animal lover had some bits I had to grab!
Her style is so whimsical and cute and I'm loving the darker colour schemes.
I'd love to get my hands on some of Ellis' fabrics and make some bits myself!

Aurora, Zeva, Alabama, Pearl.
I am very thankful for these lovely ladies today.
On my way into the adoption centre, literally as I was turning into the gates, a car from behind me pulled onto the wrong side of the road and overtook me.
It was a close call. It mounted the pavement.
I've encountered many eratic drivers over the years, especially while living closer to the city but this encounter shook me quite a bit.
I needed cat hugs more than ever after that.

Taking in the last of the greeness before it all turns to brown.

It seems this was the only photo I took today.
Some mini garlic and chive hassleback potatoes.

28th September 2022
While up at my parents, I went to sort some bits in the loft and happened upon a bag full of my childhood friends.

The rains did not stop all day and our already full waterbutt turned into a water feature.
Complete with tiny snails swimming. I moved them over onto a nearby plant.

Think what you think, believe what you believe, this was a historical spectacle of insane proportions if ever I did see. 

I didn't watch the funeral, because I don't understand wanting to 'attend' or observe such a solum affair unless it is a close friend or relative
and you absolutely have to, but I did tune in for a short moment during the procession. 
It's literally the end of an era, it's a sad moment for those who have lost a family member yet it is also
a stark reminder of how far apart the worlds of the rich and poor are. 
It seems things are only going to get worse for a while, but let's hope change comes soon.

20th September 2022
Did I even go to Berwick if I didn't get a photo of a bird and some water?

21st September 2022
There were lots of creepy crawlies in the garden today as we took apart the cold frame and started to get things ready for Autumn.

10th September 2022
Book mail! We may have missed our 2020 Honeymoon, and may not have got to be there for the 30th anniversary, but at least I managed to get my hands on The Art of Disneyland Paris book!
I also had a bit of a carry-on getting my hands on this other gorgeous book. I had pre-ordered via Waterstones, but publishing day came and went with no word from them despite my getting in touch multiple times. I then bought it on Amazon and a few days later saw a lovely little family-run bookshop had signed editions available and so had to grab that too! The difference it makes shopping small, look at that wonderful little package.

11th September 2022
I will always take my opportunity to snap our lovely little Reepi. 

12th September 2022
This week would seem to be a book-heavy photo week!
I finished The Secret of Haven Point today and just had to pop down and get a photo of it at Marsden.
Marsden Bay and Rock are places that have featured a lot in my project 365 over the past 4 years,
so reading a book that was inspired by the area was surreal. 
It's difficult to put into words how much I enjoyed this book. The disability representation, the language used (words I say that people look at me funny for ie. Spelk, are in a book?!) and the setting made the magic even more magical. 
On the way home, we also stopped by Souter Lighthouse which was (I think) the inspiration for the lighthouse in the book. We still haven't been inside Souter, somewhere I've wanted to visit since I watched it on Most Haunted a whole 20 years ago now...maybe next year!

Bathing birdies are so cute!

14th September 2022
Back to Beamish!
We haven't been since the end of June due to the Summer Holidays but had to get one last summertime visit in.

15th September 2022
Hit level 500 on Ring Fit today! 
The times, miles and calories are off because it only counts 'moving time' within levels though I keep moving throughout my whole workout. According to my fitness app I've done over 575 miles in the past 12 months alone and I've been doing Ring Fit for over 18 months.

My misunderstood, underappreciated and underrated pigeon pals are so intelligent and beautiful.
