Settling in

We've had another busy day on the home front.

After breakfast I did more sorting of the cupboard in the blue room (that's the downstairs bedroom, it's painted blue, and that was what the key was labelled).  I've managed to get all three kiddy car seats into the bottom of it.  There's still "stuff" on the shelves above - awaiting further production from the workshop.

I then did a session on the exercise bike - way down on fitness as a result of the back problems, but gradually improving.

It's been a lovely day, I sat out for coffee after my shower, and although we're inside now, the patio door is open and I'm enjoying the bird chirping.

And I've washed, dried (on the line), ironed where essential, and put away two loads of washing.

This is a tiny fuchsia.  Each of these flowers is no more than 5mm.  It's well travelled, and has spent the last year in Scotland.  We brought it over to Ireland a few weeks ago, and potted it up in a plastic fake half-barrel with some underplanting.  It is clearly happy, and now producing lots of flowers.
