Restful holiday

dog walks, puzzles and snoozes

batteries recharged

Night off

.

Food tastes much better

when someone else cooks for you

this was my moment

.

by Scooj

Being still

.

Nothing organised

a few small jobs here and there

taking time to rest

.

by Scooj

Seven o’clock

.

Thank God it’s Friday

there is time to decompress

temporarily

.

Afternoon dog walk

.

On a damp hillside

I sit while the dog works hard

top dog, under dog.

.

by Scooj

Interesting fact… the terms top dog and under dog are derived from (woodland) saw pits where the worker at the top end of a double ended saw was called the top dog and the worker in the saw pit underneath with all the sawdust dropping down was called an under dog.

Nose to the grindstone

 

It’s almost as if

there wasn’t a Christmas break

nose to the grindstone.

Fixer

 

Shower door, loo seat

mirror, mirror on the wall

deserved cup of tea

Rest

 

Glorious respite

travelling away from home

no housework to do.

 

by Scooj

Rest permitted

 

On doctor’s orders

taking it easy today

an afternoon snooze.

 

by Scooj

Distracted

 

Planning for Monday

seriously interferes

with weekend downtime.
