From Russia...

....with love. The other 'alf has been off on his travels again, this time to Russia. Keith and I spent some quality time together- snoozing on the sofa and eating chocolate. Now he's back with dirty washing and plans for the pond. We have two ponds, but one was too small (it was named the "bath" after it's rectangular shape). Now it has doubled in size and a nice selection of pond plants are settling in. Next weekend is fish buying time, very exciting.
  We had the chance to meet the newest member of the family, Youngest and her good lady wife have acquired a puppy! He is a fluff ball of cuteness and tiny paws. Keith is going to meet him this week, so I bathed him this morning. First impressions and all that hehe.
   The garden is full of birds which is splendid, I think the second brood of blue tits have fledged, as we have loads of them shouting endlessly for grub. Rather like human babies. Talking of which, the granddaughter is thriving, she does a cute little pout when she's thinking, which is adorable. She is also at that wobbly-legged shall-I-walk-or-not stage. Gorgeous girl.
   The SSRIs are doing their chemical stuff, days are calm if a little emotionless, oh well it's a small price to pay for mental stability.
  Keith with a stick he wanted to drag home!
