Two video calls from my son in New Zealand. One last Sunday and one just now, both occasions, as I answered my 4year old granddaughter's beautiful smile saying Hello Nanny. This morning for me was her opening parcels, book for her and the jumper for her brother.
This is unexpected too!
My friend knows I love Amaryllis bulbs. Big blousy show off of the bulb world.
This poor bulb had a bit of a rough start
I opened the box to find it had been packed upside down.
Spent all day Wednesday sorting out the Freeview Box. I rang my provider, who came back my phone line is OK. I quite clearly said You View, then my husband's cousin rang we nattered for about an hour or so. When I put the phone down from her I rang my provider back, answered the questions hopefully clearly as I could and then the question is it about the problem already in hand, answer Yes! I got a voice I could just about understand and she said can you do this and and this with the box, I obliged. After about and hour she said I needed a new box. I knew I needed a new box, I needed an upgrade as it had been on its last legs over the last couple years and gave yesterday. I had had the box since day one of Freeview. It made me think though. There was someone taking control of my telephone, internet and TV at the other end of the phone line!
Thursday morning off to the hospital.
I was OK. Found I couldn't sleep on that side but other than that fine.

Starts with W
This one was quite difficult so I'm afraid another lesson..........
W for Wisdom
Athena
Goddess of Wisdom. war and the craft, and the favourite daughter of Zeus. Athena was, was perhaps, the wisest, most courageous, and certainly the most resourceful of the Olympian gods.
Minerva
Roman goddess of Wisdom, medicine. commerce, handicrafts, poetry, the arts in general, and later, war.
Frigg
Goddess in Germanic mythology. In Norse mythology, the source of most surviving information about her, she is associated with foresight and wisdom, and dwells in the wetland halls of Fensalir.
Owl
The owl was a symbol for Athena, goddess of wisdom and strategy, before the Greeks gave their pantheon human forms. According to myth, an owl sat on Athena's blind side, so that she could see the whole truth. In Ancient Greece, the owl was a symbol of a higher wisdom, and it was also a guardian of the Acropolis.
According to ancient folklore in the West, the owl is considered a wise, silent and solitary bird of prey associated with lunar deities - symbols of wisdom, wiser even than the eagle - the totem bird of the Sun Kings.
It goes back to the ancient Greek goddess of wisdom, Athena, having an owl as her symbol. I had one Naturalist tell me once that owls came to represent wisdom because of their large eyes and their success in hunting at night and catching creatures that humans weren't able to detect.

First of all I would like to say a BIG Happy birthday to my youngest son 35 years old today
It snowed this week, but nothing spectacular. I helped a friend to make marmalade. It would have taken her all day if she'd attempted it on her own. I'm part of her bubble as her husband has Parkinson's so she needed help. I just helped to peel and squeeze the oranges she did the rest in the afternoon. I haven't done much else this week just knitting and sewing.
