I was working away in my sewing room/office today with my latest quilt on the design wall. Things were a bit slow at work so it was nice to have a quilt on the wall to look at. I was really looking forward to my Friday night in front of the telly stitching. The evening finally rolled around and I got myself settled and started stitching then pop the bulb blew in my lamp. Cant see the stitches. We don't have a spare bulb so I had to improvise. Running headlamp and a clothes peg did the job. So hope you are doing just what you want to do this evening and I hope it is all going smoothly. If not improvise.

Prayer Friday evening 🙏

"How do you spend your Friday evening?"

"Oh, I don't know... Drawing a bounty hunter with psychopatic tendencies, painting figures and building a Star Wars armor. How's your wild evening?" (Make no mistake, it has been a very good Friday. :D )

Korean pancakes (this time with shrimp, spring onions, and carrots) + a bottle of Czech beer = mouth orgasm.

I am so fucking happy with myself right now...I may also be slightly inebriated, so I'll hand you over to my queue and wish you a lovely Friday evening.😘

Edit: Oops! My queue is empty again, so see y'all tomorrow. 😂

🦉 This could have been the same owl I saw the other night.

Alone all weekend

I didn’t try to find somebody to fuck, I don’t really care about that

And I am happy because

I received a Lacoste hoodie in the mail, sent by my Welsh lover

Raccoon shared his Snapchat

My best friend fka Daddy is online

I am drinking Jameson Caskmate Stout edition

Daddy Chicago is serial blogging like it’s a normal Friday

A California friend is sharing jazzy hip hop beats with me

Did I say I am home alone?

So international. So online.

28/10/2022-Part 2 of 2: Lakeside evening walk and bits at home 

Following on from my previous post, with the clocks going back at the weekend tonight was the last of my Friday evening Lakeside walks in addition to a lunch time one this year this evening as my early finish at work that facilitates it will be close to darkness and then at and after it falls for a bit as the weeks go on. The walk was a perfect ending to another fantastic year of these. At lunch time whilst working from home I usually ensure I get at least half an hour of fresh air they often become 45 minutes or more of my lunch hour. Due to other things the Friday evening walks this year have mostly all been within half an hour and it amazes me just how much I can see across the year in that time. From blossom on one of my early editions of these walks this year to mushrooms and autumn leaves on tonight’s, from inspiring and year defining butterfly sightings of my first Large Skipper of 2022 and Purple Hairstreak, to cracking summer views of a Coot and hot summer days allowing for memorable photos; these walks this year have been amazing for me and I shall miss them. 

One of the best things about these walks for me are the peaceful entry into the weekend to have some calm after finishing work to ease into the weekend. And tonight had that so well, perfect in the enjoyable walk in the lowering sun evening walks I just love taking being out in these conditions seeing that sweet and precious light that is extremely beautiful. Seeing the pine trees lit nicely in the lowering sun was a sight this day had last year too which I really enjoyed tonight. This could become a scene I associate with this moment in a year. I took the second, fifth, sixth, seventh and tenth pictures in this photoset of views tonight there were nice frizzy cloud scenes too which I enjoyed at home before as well. I did enjoy seeing some lovely little mushrooms in the eastern meadows where I had this walk which the eighth and ninth pictures in this photoset shows. A lovely moment with a Robin and another butterfly after lunch time’s Small White were great sightings on the walk I saw the butterfly quickly in the well vegetated eastern meadows I couldn’t quite tell which it was either Peacock or Red Admiral. The thistle in the third picture in this photoset another straggling flower seen today on the green outside Lakeside and many glorious coloured red rose hips in the sunlight including the ones in the fourth picture in this photoset were great plant sightings tonight with the reeds in the eastern meadows seen well too. I liked seeing Jackdaws flying over and calling from home as we headed towards evening.

It was something of a lull in autumn leaf photos today with a lot of them blown off but I enjoyed some at Lakeside tonight especially still, and I loved seeing the tree visible from my room that goes nice and yellow in the autumn in the first picture in this photoset looking stunning in the delicious afternoon sun today it’s interesting it has a few red leaves at the top this year too. I hope you all have a nice weekend. 

Full Wildlife Sightings Summary for today: Two of my favourite birds the Jay and Great Crested Grebe, Mallard, Coot, Moorhen, Greylag Geese, Black-headed Gull, Magpie seen well, Jackdaw, Woodpigeon, Feral Pigeon, Starling hearing them well out the back today too, Goldfinch looking great in trees out the front tonight, Robin, Dunnock, Wren, possibly a Grey Wagtail at the brook, Small White, the other butterfly, Grey Squirrel, some nice little spiders in the area by Monks Brook and carpet beetle, spider, moths and grey silverfish at home.

Prayer for forgiveness sins before Christmas 🙏

Matthew 6:9-13

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, As in heaven so on earth, Our daily bread, give us today, And forgive us our mistakes, Just as we forgive our wrongdoers. And lead us not into temptation, It saves us from the evil one, For Yours is the Kingdom of Glory and the power in the name of the Father of the Son the Holy Spirit now and forever and forever and ever. Amen 🙏

Psalm 51

In the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, I ask you in prayer to save the peace of my soul from my sins and mistakes with thoughts, actions and words. Amen 🙏
