My normally deserted view.
It's one of those days today, you know the ones, those where despite every effort that squidgy thing inside of our skull just doesn't want to operate at anything like normal speed where blogging is concerned. All day long nothing came to mind, nothing happened and nothing moved me to put my finger tips to keyboard.
This evening things have improved a little, the stable out back has some sort of small event going on and my normally deserted view has turned into a hive of activity. I have been treated to a show of smallish children proudly 'doing their stuff' over low fences (do they call them fences?), on a variety of horses that arrived in varying size of very expensive looking horse boxes.... dragged by even more expensive looking four wheel drive vehicles.
In the process of watching these goings on I finally got to meet my nextdoor neighbours new lady. She has lived here since winter but somehow we never really had a chance to say more than 'hi' until now. Annoyingly she is very nice, sat on the balcony in the sun we chatted away like old friends and discovered we have quite a lot in common. I say she is 'annoyingly' very nice because along the way I learnt that they are moving any day now and quite a distance so sunny afternoon chats will be a very short lived thing!
Whilst this conversation was in progress and with reference to yesterdays post regarding cats misbehaving, Poppy, yes Poppy, decided to take a little exercise, out of the front door she wandered, sniffed the air, turned on her heel and marched straight across nextdoors threshold and in....not a by your leave, no hesitation just in. She took her time having a good look around, checked out every room and then helped herself to a leaf off a house plant!....oh the embarrassment.
Thankfully aforementioned very nice neighbour saw the funny side.
