Something Different

 



 I am going to try to write a post on my iPad this morning. We will see how that goes! A learning curve for me for sure. It won’t be my usual post or very wordy, that’s for sure, but maybe that’s a good thing! Are those sighs of relief I hear from the peanut gallery! lol 

These last five years I have done all of my computer work sitting on a dining room chair pushed up to my desk, an actual computer chair being somewhat out of my budget. I have never had a computer chair to be honest, it’s only ever been a simple kitchen or dining room chair. It may be time to change that. They say change can be a beautiful thing and I have found over these past days that I am unable to sit for very long before having to getup and walk around or lay down. Hence not really being able to sit at the computer to do much in the way of work.

It is frustrating to say the least. I am a person that likes to keep busy and to be doing. Sitting and watching others doing is not my cup of tea.

But it is a beautiful morning out there this morning. The sun is shining. The sky is blue. The frost is melting off the rooftops across the way. Birds are chirping. The cats are watching, with great interest. I can hear the gentle hum of Eileen’s breathing machine, and I am wondering what to have for breakfast.



This is a colouring picture she did for me last night. She likes to color using a colouring app she has on her phone and she knows I like toadstools so she shared it with me.  She finds the app very relaxing. I can see where that would be.

I have an appointment at noon for the latest Covid shot. I am going to drive my car to Cindy’s and then she can drive the rest of the way. Hopefully my back will be okay. You never know unless you try. She and Dan managed to get my car to its appointment yesterday and my car is now sporting its summer tires. Two new ones at the front. It was an expensive appointment but you have to do what you have to do. How grateful I am for my little job which helps to keep this roof over my head and pay for all the other things I need. The tender mercies of the Lord. I could not make it without them. 

The goodness of God surrounds me. I see His abundance in my life daily and I am very grateful.




Eileen and I watched a really good film last night on Prime. I couldn’t find a proper movie poster to show you, so this will have to do. It is leaving Prime at the end of the month so if you want to watch it, yiu will have to do it soon. We both really enjoyed this very much. If you like a feel good movie that makes you think and is inspiring then you will enjoy this.


One pan Sausage and Sweet Potato Bake


I did manage to cook a new recipe yesterday and even posted it. One Pan Sausage and Sweet Potato Bake. I am not sure how to link it on the iPad. https://www.theenglishkitchen.co/2026/04/onepan-sausage-and-sweet-potato.html   That is the only way I could do it for now. It may not look like much, but it was really delicious. We enjoyed it with some steamed rice and a salad on the side. The sweet potatoes just melt in the mouth. I adapted the recipe from an old cookbook that I have of my mother’s. She gave the book to me many years ago. I suppose she got tired of me wearing a hole through its pages every time I came home for a visit! It is one of my treasures!

And I think I will count my blessings and end this now, grateful that I have even got this far! Have a great day everyone! Don’t forget!
