I looked up last night & saw the evening sun hitting the bottom of the garden…just above was the moon.
A minute later it was gone!
Three good things:
1. We have been to see Top Gun at the cinema…an excellent film.
2. All the show signs are up ready for the weekend.
3. I was asked this morning if I would help in the art & photography marquee, I was strong enough to say no thank you. Sometimes I get pushed into things I would really rather not!
I’m already helping in our old horticultural tent while the judging is on….enough!
So peculiar isn't it seeing the sun and moon on a hot sunny evening ! and the moon so transparent !
Good that you were strong enough to decline from another job at the Show , - You need some time to enjoy the pleasantries of the show ( esp. at our age !! )
Well done for saying No. I have a friend who hasn't been able to say no to people and gets talked into all sorts of thing she would rather not do. I have taught her how to say No without actually saying the word and she has got much better at refusing now.
An example of saying No without actually saying it is "I would love to help but unfortunately I am doing something else that day" or in your situation " I would love to help out but I am already helping out on the horticultural tent and that is enough for me today"
Good spotting this light when it happens. Particularly nice when seen through a shadowed area! You do have to be strong to say no - I do like what Babs says! @onewing
@onewing I used to be one of those people too Babs! I have got wiser & more assertive as I have grown older! 😀 I had the reason of all those things but I could have done it if I had really wanted to! I didn’t want to so I said sorry no…..I know I would have regretted it if I had sad yes. Good for you & your friend…I’m proud of us!! 👏🏻👏🏻
@maggiemae@boxplayer Yes it’s good to be assertive…..I felt pleased with myself when I put the phone down…the friend asking fir the other lady didn’t push too hard thankfully!

Love seeing the moon in the blue sky
