Another lockdown (not that its any different for me) but the weather is very mild for the time of the year:0)

Well i was looking at putting them in their box this morning and low and behold another was laying.
It will be interesting to see how they lay next year as they have gone mad this year.

All fine here too. Crazy busy but although we're in lockdown, it's going fine and isn't really affecting our day-to-day lives all that much. Main difference is that my two adult children still at home are working and not furloughed this time and eldest son is with his partner and they're both working.
Just a bit of moping from my son and daughter who can't see their other halves although they have the power of FaceTime.
And we're all ready for Christmas of course!!!

We're still jogging along in our new house not going out very much even having the shopping delivered. All my Meds are now in hibernation and the Browns have a new insulated shed and enjoyed their stay with Gordon. Still have lots of sorting out to do as we are still trying to get the contents of our old house into our new one which is much much smaller!

I'm getting back to normal after having fractured my right kneecap and left wrist. Each day is better than the last.

I was walking back towards the gate in the pasture after having completed my laps, and didn't lift my foot high enough when stepping over a downed branch. Went crashing down! Had to have surgery to put a plate across the bones in my wrist. It was too hard to type on the computer, so I've been using a Kindle to get online. But i thought I'd try the computer this a.m., and while it hurts, it seems to be working ok!

Now I'm going to go back through the posts and see how Gordon is doing.
