Inspiring lady

 Good morning. First coffee drunk. Birds and ducks have been fed. Cats been fed. Mayze snoring her head off by my side as I type. Looking good outside. The garden is taking up more of my time. I want to keep on top of the work, keeping things tidy and not let it get out of hand. I was out trimming bushes until 9pm last night. 

Anyone watching Brenda from the Boro? She hasn't posted for a long time and I was worried that she might have stopped. Nope, she has not and is back with a new post. 

Brenda is my inspiration. When the going gets tough, she carries on. I have happy memories of Brenda when she invited me into her home in 2013, when I was on a long walk. 
She called into my house another time when she was on her way down south. Brought me some crafting supplies as I remember. 
Then a surprise in 2021 when I was in The Outer Hebrides. I was at a campsite and Brenda was there on her bike with her hubby. Amazing coincidence. 
Brenda is a survivor. So what has she been doing these last couple of months? Getting on her bike of course. Check out her blog to see where she has been. 
Now to enjoy this sunny day. Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona

    1. Nice to hear from you Jo. All it takes is a bit of effort to make the most of the life we are given. In Brenda's case she is a shining example of what can be achieved, even when things are not going too well.

  2. Aww thanks Ilona. So good of you to mention me. Yes I’m still cycling and camping and hoping for decent weather for the bank holiday weekend.
    This just reminded us of when you walked in rainy weather and we were able to assist you. That’s what friendship is all about.
