Puddle Watching Is a Rare And Noble Art

Sometimes life is just about looking and if you think that by just looking you're doing nothing then you're wrong . You actually being proactive honestly I promise you are , life is about time and how you choose to spend it can seriously impact upon you . I don't really really like a change in my routine but sometimes it's the better the devil you know . On my way home after work I decided to go straight down the lane instead of going right . Feeling a little like Alice in Wonderland in my choices ..

 


It had been raining cats and dogs so puddles of course were the prerequisite, I do love how a puddle brings out the depth of colour in the world in particular making the greens ever more lush.

I wasn't dressed really for puddle watching that day but instead opted for that rare and noble art of puddle watching. You can find stars , galaxies, planets and burning suns in a puddle there really is another world in them.

How To Bond With Your Cat

How to bond with your cat....

How to bond with your cat is an age old question that has puzzled us human beings for many millennia they demand our attention and when we give it to them they ignore us ! Make your cat feel safe is part of the bonding process and then they make sit on your iPad to demand you worship them ....




Give your cat the space it needs.

 


 Obviously your cat is going to be mightily ticked off with the snap election and subsequent weeks of political wrangling not knowing if they're coming or going. So to appease and bond with your cat why not let it watch bird videos on youtube complete with a giant squirrel thrown in and no your cat will not get square eyes.

 



 

While your cat is relaxing watching the YouTube video you could pot up a strawberry plant ! Red Candy have a really sweet cat planter where a felt tongue is soaking up some water in a little dish and priced at only £10 it's not exactly going to break the bank.


 


And with Father's Day coming up also you could also order this comical cactus desk organiser that's also magnetic to hold paperclips perfect for any stationery lover and priced at £12.99


 


Disclosure I was sent the strawberry planter and desk organiser , the black cat however is my own and subject to doing what ever it likes

I said "Good Morning" You'll never believe what happened next !

I said

"Good Morning "

You'll never believe what happened next ...

Yes that's right I got various "Good Mornings " back on twitter - amazing in this age of pumping out the content. Saying "Good Morning " particularly on Twitter is the retro equivalent of playing Frogger on social media. I feel as is I have explain Frogger basically it's a game where you direct a frog to cross the road ~it's kamikaze. Health and safety would have a absolute fit as there is no sign of a safe crossing anywhere.

Will I have as much look as I say " Good Afternoon "?

Time will tell and I will back in about 3 minutes to update this blog post , I haven't had this much fun since I discovered a Freddo Frog in my coat pocket and you know how much those things costs nowadays. OOOh the anticipation is killing me ....


Update ...

I said

"Good Afternoon " and not a dicky bird but that's probably because it it wedged between a blog post titled "Here's one you missed " or "What I wore to the park " where none of the park is actually featured.

You know all those other tireless adverts that pop up to fill ever cavity of the internet ..


"You'll not believe how Cruise ships fill their ships "

"She looked gorgeous then but it's jaw dropping how she looked now "

There is no expectation to reply to a greeting no expectation I mean I do have better things to do with my life than worry if someone is going to reply to my hellos, afternoons or evenings . The world won't stop if no one replies a little sad perhaps as you'd hope that there life beyond the sponsored content or reviews and don't get me wrong these are great in their own right but it can be overwhelming. I think this is why I love to write about anything an idea can just spring into my head and I will write about it and this is what happened when I said ..

"Good Morning " on Twitter.


I think somalia media is good although you have to be careful as it can be like a drug , you can find yourself looking for the next hit if you are not careful. I write on a whim and on a hope and on a dream * sort of sounds like a rousing speak from the film "Gladiator " ...


I don't let myself get bogged down by social media nowadays I have been there and got the t-shirt and blogged about it ~ I rise like the proverbial phoenix from the flames go and FYI I have never been the subject of Mumsnet expect that post I wrote about "Gnome Knickers '

The New Neighbours

I'm not sure about the new neighbours now I know they're not vampires as they appear in the bright sunlight. They do like to party somewhat and they dance about the place in their stripes .

They are of course the ever so beautiful Bumble Bee , they've built their home in the eaves of my human neighbours house.

I'm really enjoying #30dayswild and I was further buoyed when I found a childhood book "Fabulous Animals" by Sir David Attenborough.

 


Here are my new neighbours the Bumbke bees and aren't they marvellous !? 


 

Oh and here are my other neighbours who quite literally are hanging outside my window !



 

With all the nature close at hand I decided to strike out and be an explorerer so much so that when I saw a little girl with her grandma she said 

" That lady is on an adventure too "





 


I'm going to keep adventuring and be myself ...



 

Going Wild In June

I have the whole world at my feet , this is why I love to wander I wander with and with out a purpose , I burst with excitement to see what is round the next corner. I am especially excited as in June it is Go wild month a scheme with encourages you to get out there and connect with  wildlife, countryside and the whole shebang. Sometimes in life I can't cope with all the noise and hustle bustle round me and I just have to seek the solace of the wild and listen to the world song. It's not that I tire of listening to people but sometimes the sound of us humans can just start to sound like television interference.


I have to see the sky in the many myriads and hues it throws out , the world is your oyster they say and it really is . Wherever I walk sometimes people say "Hello , Good morning whatever is contrive to the time of day or the weather perhaps , Gosh don't us Brits just love the weather . I think I must tea about the weather every day even if it is to myself .


I just forever feel the need to walk and explore I am not the sort of person to keep still and I have ants in my feet instead of my pants. The affects of talking part with wild life and the surrounding is so brilliant it is the simple things in life. Listening to the bird song first thing in the morning as you sit outside and just looking at the the clouds is engaging , everyone can engage with it from family to friends to strangers.


If you do something wild every month it can make you feel happier healthy and more connected go be a caterpillars cheerleader !
