I feel like I have lost control of my days (and my mind!!) - each day seems to rush to a conclusion and I feel like I have a million things still to do and a million things to think about and I just need to catch my breath.
Tonight after a typically bizarre day at work - I nearly broke my neck running from one place of work to another to meet someone at 1.30pm only to get there and find out it was only 12.30pm. Which meant I had to hightail it back to the other place of work at 4.30pm to finish off the work I couldn't finish because I ran out of time because earlier on I had been an hour ahead of myself. What??
Anyway, I digress......tonight I announced an urgent need to go for a hike up a track to a bridge I thought would be covered in primroses and would make a lovely photo and if we didn't go now when would we ever have the time. Mr M ever obliging and living up to his saintly status agreed - perhaps I was slightly unhinged at this point! Typically at this point the heavens opened and it poured with rain.....someone was trying to send me a message......undeterred we headed out.
The herd of cows all had that look about them.....couple of idiots out for a walk in this weather.
I forgave them especially when I saw the wee calf. Isn't it cute....if a little stroppy too.
The weather was clearing, but as you can see it was hardly a return to spring sunshine.
The track is an old Parliamentary road and dates to the start of the 19th century.
It was just one of those days. When we reached the bridge there were hardly any primroses to be seen. Mr M ever the smart one, declared that as it was North facing there was little chance of there being many primroses out yet. Good grief. A tree at the bridge was absolutely buzzing with bees the sound was almost deafening. We headed back down the track and stopped at the cairn to admire the view.
On a sad note the cat that was visiting us was knocked down and killed on the road and I've been heartbroken.
Oh dear, I was going to sympathise with you over your mad/maddening day when you mentioned the cat and my heart sank - having lost two in quick succession last year to exactly that, I felt your pain. So sorry x
