Think I'm caught up with any of the photographs I'll post from Bewdley, that I've taken so far..

There is a tiny signet next to the parent here, if you can see it?

Don't know where they've gone now..

More wild garlic!!

The beautiful River Severn..

The source of the River is 2,000 ft high at Plynlimon, mid Wales..

Hares from Jubilee Park... Should have been a video but can't load it.. so many times I've forgotten to load them differently and can see in my mind's eye people clicking in the play arrow.. and nothing!!

Today the weather is a bit gloomy... We'll still be out for our walk, and hoping by my break I can take a stroll to the river or park and sit and read my book out in the fresh air..

So many more people here at weekends though, not sure yet..

Went along to a forest nearby yesterday on my break, was sooooo very busy!

It's not been easy on placements, during these days, lonely enough the life of a lone worker, but feels even worse somehow...

I was so lucky being able to stay with my oldest son and his family throughout April.

I have over eight weeks left to go.. Keep thinking - along of course with everyone, I want my normal life back, but then think, what's normal now anyway? I've not really been living a normal life for about four years.. it's been completely not normal! Lols, when have I ever been normal!! Ugh!! No!! What am I thinking!!

It's okay, I'm okay! Just being me!

It's just sometimes, I have too much time to think, and should instead fill my head with knowledge; I keep getting back into my Spanish then forget I'm doing it!! I have three books I'm reading instead of focusing on one at a time!

I have crochet hook and wool and an adult painting by numbers! But saving for my next placement breaks.

Beautiful Bewdley

I am reading a book I picked up from a phonebooth library!

And I shall return after I finish reading it! Lols.. with a note therein!

It's called To The Moon and Back, by Jill Mansell.. I'm loving it; it has started out sadly, hoping for a fairytale happy ending.. being a born romantic and ever hopeful..

Ha!

Beautiful lambs..
Beautiful day for walking...

Saving the day for the poor duck being chased by drakes!! She came to me to save her!!

My walk along the Severn River last week..

Was one long walk! 7.3 miles!!

Walking every day with the customer too, which is really lovely.. bit harder going supporting someone to walk.. but nice to get out and about every day.

Was going to write more, but tiredness taking me over..

Been up and outta bed by half six every morning.. and not sleeping too well last few nights..

Wanted to link to a video by Roo Panes.. There's a Place.. but can't find one with lyrics.. so linking to lyrics if anyone can be whatsit to check it out! Hope so though.

I'm a very bad Blogger!! Bad bad!

Okay! Since May 9th??

Left placement.. spent 8 nights in an Airbnb in Bewdley..

Feel like a local now! I know the walks, the rivers, the forests, the wildlife, the dogs, even some of the people!

Some familiar faces from when I was placed here earlier on in the year.. January 7th for two weeks!

Now I'm back.. in time of Lockdown...

A few pictures for now.. and more later... I am in work..

All beautiful Bewdley...

Stranger than strange photography this evening, Blogging from Kindle, so forgive any auto correct errors!

Above little macro shot of morning dew on a birds feather the other morning...

Could probably fancy it up a bit, but it's late the day has been hard going to say the least... if only I could even begin to explain!

And above turned back to my gloves midway through washing up to find the right hand poised, poetically! As I snapped this quickly the finger dropped back down...! LOL!!

Tomorrow is my last full day here, it has been head work from start to finish, an extraordinary five weeks.

Wednesday at 2pm I shall be running (screaming), down the drive to freedom! Friend picking me up, a couple of hours in Neath maybe, then to Cardiff for the night.... have I told you this? After meeting Franco off the airport coach we'll catch the train to Nottingham, looks like the journey will be broken by a coach ride! The Severn Tunnel is closed while they electrify the line!! Firstly, how backward is that, the Euston line has been electric since the early sixties I think? I remember when mom married my step dad in 1967 I was warned to keep away from the tunnel, don't go under the fence... it's electric!!

Oh, and secondly, I didn't know there was a tunnel under the Severn! Oops! How have I travelled from London to Wales by train and not noticed!! Heck...

Journey will be so much longer with that bus change, I don't believe it, only started it today for goodness sake!

I better sleep, I fear tomorrow will be long...
