Better together

Another beautiful sunny autumn day.  We both woke feeling a bit rough, not helped by Merlin barking from 6am.  Andy was kind enough to get me breakfast in bed and after a leisurely few hours trying to make ourselves feel more human, we took Merlin for a walk.  It was the first dog walk we have done together in two weeks - work and illness getting in our way.  The field where we walk is filled with teasels.  Their spiked flower heads and stems looked especially dramatic against the blue sky.  

This afternoon has been one of rest.  Andy sat and listened to the Ryder Cup and I slept for several hours.  We managed another dog walk together before dinner.  Hoping you have all had the day for which you wished and your Monday goes well.
