Saturday Morning

June 2023

This morning I headed off to our local farmers market and bought myself a cappuccino and a pain au chocolate to stay warm. I carried them over nearby to the grounds of our local U3A Community Village Garden.
I decided to sit here which is my usual lunch spot every Tuesday when I have my French and Ukulele classes. I watched people, their children and dogs wheel their trolleys to buy their organic produce.
I sat down and pondered what I could do today as I drank my coffee. With hubby at his golf club, it meant that I had the entire day to myself. Of course, I could play golf too but as I don’t have a membership to play on Saturdays and I’m a fair weather golfer, there was no way I was going to hit a little white ball in this freezing weather.
I continued to chew and contemplate the question.
Reading Pride and Prejudice? Doing the washing? French been exercises? Knitting? Oh CRAP! Magpies. They’re eyeing off my food.
Wandering around the garden, I contemplated for a split second about joining the club…until I realised that my parents have a great garden and I get all that I need from there. I don’t need to fill my time with yet another activity. I have more interest in building myself a wooden table like that in this picture as I need a potting table in our back yard. Mmm. I could join the Men’s Shed (Women go on Tuesdays) to learn how to do carpentry. 🤔
I like how they have planted flowers under all the trees however it prevents anyone from sitting under them.
