Spread your wings and fly away

Spent the best part of this evening sorting out files, putting some photos onto flickr, burning others onto a CD, losing some files - which I might add I am not happy about but the computer started to have a fit and I think I pressed something I shouldn't have, and generally clearing some space on my memory card before I put it back into my camera.

Shattered now with a massive headache to boot so I am going to leave you all and head up the stairs in a weary fashion and crawl into my bed.

Good night all, see you tomorrow

Near to us is an area of natural beauty and part of the Chiltern Hills called Warden Hills and Galley Hill (Galley hill used to be used as a site of execution). We don't go walking there often, mainly as I went there a few years ago and the car got broken into, but once in a while I will take the kids and dogs there for a walk on a fine day - or as today turned out to be a misty day.

We used to have a leafletwith all the walks detailed on it, but we tend to make up our own walk depending on how much time we have.

Now walking with two dogs, one of which has to be on a lead at all times, and two kids who think that you are totally barmy walking around with a camera and taking photos of trees isn't easy, but I ignored their laughter, their groans of "oh mum" and their cries of "What the hell are you taking a picture of that for" and tried my best to take a few snaps of our leisurely stroll over the hills.
Scruffy

It looks quite tame in the photo, but you get halfway up and realise you are unfit and it is quite steep!

After a while the children began to get into the swing of things and start pointing out what they could see:

Boobies

Lovers

Woodland flowers

Blossom

Ivy

A Bumble bee, as close as I could get before it flew off

Are we home yet?

What is over there?

Upon checking my emails I have:

1 claiming to be from Barclays wanting me to activate my e-banking account
1 claiming to be from Nat west wanting me to activate my e-banking account
1 claiming to be from LLoyds to confirm my e-banking details
1 claiming to be from Halifax with a e-statement notification

None of which I bank with - good job they are all being deleted unopened then aren't they lol

Not that I am bouncing of course, afterall I am far too tired!!

I had strange dreams last night, one of which set off a panic attack - fortunately Nig is used to them now and just lets me get on with it, holding me to him until I calm down again. If I visited the toilet once in the night I must have done half a dozen times, no idea why just felt like I had to - then of course there was the usual turning and moving around until I settled and the dreams that made absolutely no sense whatsoever!!

So today I lazed in bed for a little while listening to the radio droning on until I decided to struggle my way out of the duvet covers and make a cuppa as by this time I was thirsty. So having had that cup of tea and a couple of toasted fruit muffins for breakfast I am feeling a little more human.

Saw someone I haven't seen for a while when I was out last night. He came and joined us for a while, sat there chatting about nothing much. Turned to speak to hubby, when I turned back he noticed I had caught him looking down my top and went bright red! Didn't say anything but found it amusing, there isn't much there to look at lol Hubby found it amusing as well lol Friend went not long afterwards - think he is a little wary of Nig, not sure why as he is quite harmless really and likes people admiring me - he does it all the time lol

No sun this morning which is a shame though it is still quite mild out there. There is a lot I need to do but haven't done yet, might try and get myself sorted so I can do

Right better go and get a move on, want to do some pilates later!¬

Have a good day everyone

Hugs
