Walks

Got up earlier, & feeling chirpy, managed a bit of yoga.
Had a few people tell me I'm smiley & friendly & they'll miss me.
Glad it was sunny & I got a walk & a chat in with someone I like.
Also glad it was sunny & I had plenty of time to walk down to the docs & returned library books, & picked up my request.
Thankful there is a shop close by, so I can easily pick up basics, & treats for the bunny.
It was still dry & light enough to sit out with her for a little bit.
