Blue Jays and Computer Problems at Yew Court

Last week was about new baby and new career at Yew Court. This week it has been all about shopping for baby strollers and baby clothes for the new addition to the family.

It has also been about computer problems too. The other day I was busy working on my computer and drinking a cup of tea at the same time. This combination can be fatal. I lost concentration for one second and the next thing I knew I had knocked the cup of tea over my keyboard and killed my computer!

I did my best to mop up the tea and dry out my computer but to no avail. Luckily enough I have my computer insured and sent it off to be repaired. If I hadn't had my computer insured I would have had to find a local computer repairs company, which would have been a nuisance. You just don't realise how much we rely on our computers. I was lost without mine. But thankfully my computer was soon repaired and as good as new again in new time!

On a happier note, we have been seeing lots of Blue Jays in the garden this year. We have seen them around other years but this year they seem to come into our garden more and stay for longer. I think they must have a nest near by as we have also spotted baby blue jays too. Richard says he sees lots of baby blue jays flying around in the mornings. They seem to gather around the same time each day and then fly off.

New Baby and New Career at Yew Court

It's all happening at Yew Court lately. First of all Richard's daughter had a new baby boy. His name is Jayden and he is only one week old at the time of writing. Isn't he sweet!

Richard went round to see mother and baby to take some photos. He has decided that as well as doing nature photography he now wants to be a Professional Portrait Photographer.

On top of that my Nephew Graham has decided to become self employed and now has his own Carpentry and Joinery Business in Lincoln where he lives. I think it is very brave of him to go it alone but then he is a first class Joiner so I am sure he will do well.

The weather here at Yew Court is at last beginning to brighten up and we are seeing some sunshine during the day, although the nights are still fairly chilly. But the birds are singing merrily in the garden and are busy nest building and looks for a mate.

To cap it all, next week is my birthday. And please no guessing how old I am lol!
