Just Another Day

Nope, nothing to do with Jon Secada’s hit from 1992. I bought ‘Angel’ on a cassette years later and this was on the B side, though I think both were considered ‘A’s.
Anyway, today is just another day, except I am one year older and need a bigger extinguisher.
When I woke up it was raining.
Not the horrible torrential stuff of a couple of days ago, just a gentle smattering of pattering raindrops on the roof with its unique melody.
Hubby got up and left me to have a lie in (special day and all that).

A good hour’s snooze later and the rain had stopped so he took the dog out.
I stretched and got up, padded about in my bunny slippers and did the usual things every morning brings.
The rain started again, and I thought oops. Hubs is not going to be happy caught out in it, though I knew he’d taken the backpack of waterproofs, so he’d be OK.

I was pleasantly surprised when he got back laden down with breakfast!
And a card.
And flowers.
Also he and the dog were both dry as he’d taken the car to do his shopping and she had performed when requested during a dry bit.

Bacon rolls and latte coffee started the day off brilliantly (and no washing up, yay!!).
The card made me feel young and carefree (he couldn’t find a ’60 minus 1′, so opted for 21 and wrote ‘again’ on the front).
The flowers……. a bunch of ten roses of various colours (payday yesterday) .

And there were more to come:
You had to be there……………..

Note:
We walked the same route on The Malverns afterwards, then went for a carvery on the way home (no washing up again, double yay!!).
