Friday Greenery


Well it's the time of week again when I have t0 say - yay it's Friday :))
 I will be finished work today by 6pm and then there are two whole days before I go back. 
It is a lovely feeling. :)

Even better, in two weeks I stop for my 2 weeks annual summer leave.  Not that we are going anywhere but we will probably do a few day trips. I am fair looking forward to it and it can't come quick enough.  

Well with it being Friday it means it is also Green Day  at Raindrops and Daisys.  So here is my offering for today.


And it's also time of the week for Weekend Reflections so sharing this one there :))



I also spotted this old car (I've no idea what it is) but I really liked it, and I love the colour too. It's not a great picture because it is a big zoom but I wanted to put it up. 
We don't see that many vintage cars around here - and I think this one is a cracker!!!

As some of you may know, I am trying to lose a bit of weight and get healthier. 
Well I'm pleased to say that I have finally lost my 1st stone - yay go me!!!!  
Can you tell I'm feeling quite pleased with myself :))
I already feel better for it but I do have another couple to go. It may take me quite a wee while to get there, but I'm feeling quite pleased with myself - 'cause it's not easy.
Anyway I promise not to go on too much about it :))

Have a great Friday everyone!!!!

Big congratulations on the loss of your first stone! Well done. I know hard it is to get there! I like the "green" photo. There's plenty of green in Britain this year with all the rain! It's the same here too!

Ellie,
Well you admirable girl, you, losing so much. Good for you. And I love your green pictures.

It is hot, dry summer time here, and much of our surroundings are "golden" as in light tan and dried out. the only things still green are those we water several times a week.
Happy weekend.

Oba zdjęcia są bardzo ładne, a stary samochód rewelacyjny. Perspektywa urlopu, to wspaniałe uczucie. Wreszcie będzie można odpocząć. Pozdrawiam.
Both pictures are very nice, and amazing old car. The prospect of leave, it feels great. Finally, you can relax. Yours.

I have no idea how much a stone is either....but since I am going through this right now too...it doesn't matter. What matters is that you did it and did not give up! So proud of you!

1 stone doesn't sound like much, but I read your earlier post and know it is an accomplishment! Congratulations! Love that old blue car.

Hi Ellie

Greetings from Ireland (where the sun is shining
I can hardly believe it - no rain!)
hope it's the same in Scotland!

Thanks for joining up with "Green Day" again Ellie,
it is great to have you contribute.

I am sorry that I am so late in visiting you but I was on holiday and only arrived back in the early hours of this morning, so lots and lots of catching up to do!

Lovely photos.

Wishing you a happy Thursday

Take care

Fiona x
ps
well done on the weightloss!

After being on hols
I am afraid to stand on the scales!
