Recent stuff - Easter Monday

Went to start this posting, and then found I hadn't the photos ready - talk about a senior moment, but then it is a while since the last time I went through this process!
Back later - well here are the images. Didn't realize there were so many, so will have breakfast (1230) before I write the notes.

1420 Isn't is amazing how long it can take to have breakfast - of course, I was sitting on the swing-seat in the sun, and I did take some more flower pictures, as well as emptying the small compost, soaking two buckets of laundry, and doing a pile of dishes!
Anyway, here I am, despite the glorious sunshine outside ....

This first image is of a small swivel mirror which I bought my husband so he could apply drops to he eye after removal of a cataract.








The next image shows the bag and box off the vitamin B12 injections which I have three-monthly as part of treatment for overactive thyroid.

This is my chocolate 'store', gifts I received during Lent when I was abstaining from my favourite addictive substance.
Later on in this post you will see that this box is now empty!

A few items that were on the table in my office.

Actually I have no memory of what this paper refers to - obviously I was calculating something, but no idea what.
It is now in the WITOT box.

This is the Novena of Grace prayer leaflet. This Novena (a novena is a commitment to pray for nine days, in imitation of Our Lady and the Apostles praying for nine days before they received the Holy Spirit at Pentecost) Fr Joe Kavanagh OP preached the novena and was very inspiring.

This is a serviette I got at the free breakfast before the Alpha course I attended in the Methodist church in Jobstown. (Alpha is a course for opening people's minds about Christianity. ) My interest was to be part of something run jointly by seven Tallaght churches. A great bunch of lovely people1

This pack of plant labels is nearly all used up - that means I've planted nearly 50 items since I bought it back in February. When I went to replace it, I found they were selling wooden labels instead. I'm hoping the wood was treated against the dreaded botrytis.



Another group of items from here and there.

I remember buying this packet of small notebooks. However, I don't remember what I used this one for. These senior moments are such a bother!





I recently gave myself RSI (repetitive strain injury) from using the secateurs too much. This wrapping is off the support I used while it was still painful


This red ribbon marked AVOCA is off a plum-pudding we got as a Christmas gift, but are only going to eat today. It is tiny, and will just do the two of us nicely.


This other red ribbon is off those lovely heart-shape sweets mentioned above. They got a quick death yesterday, Easter Sunday.



Nice to be back - see you soon.
