5 OS Pleasures in your Day Today part 2

Frith

Pleasures for today (so far).

1) Not a bad sleep.

2) Boys got off to school OK. Sister (lives about 4 miles away) got stuck in a snowdrift on her way to work!

3) Went to nearest town. Charity shop finds today: a warm scarf, a tunic style top and a Sue Townsend novel. Also got a bucket!

4) Took new bucket and went to the grit bin and gritted the alleyway, garden path etc.

5) Went swimming with my brother.

6) Cleaned the living room (a million muddy footprints) and have lit the fire and don't intend doing much this evening. Might do a belated Earth Hour later.

And here, for brother watchers, is the snow in his village! Sorry I can't re-size these giant photos.

Evening all.

Thanks all for your good wishes for mog - I won't get the lab results back for a couple of weeks, but the vet said he's "cautiously optimistic" which sounds promising. At the moment he (mog, not the vet!) is still rather wobbly and sorry for himself - he's having trouble eating, too, which is sad for a cat who loves his food as much as mine does!

1) Slept better than I thought I would.

2) Did my dog magnet trick on a bulldog pup and a CKC spaniel at the vet's - the spaniel tried to climb into my lap for a cuddle, which was particularly cute. Less pleasurable was the amount of sticky tape it took to get all the dog hair off my trousers afterwards!

3) Hospital appointment was less arduous than I expected - they think the problem is something very minor and, now it's been fixed, everything will finally heal. Fingers crossed that they're right - I'm not having another 6 months of this! :mad:

4) Watching a pair of little birds - goldcrests I think - that have been hopping around my garden all afternoon, which I hope means they're planning to nest somewhere nearby.

5) My line manager kindly agreed to let me take tomorrow as a day off, at very short notice, so I can keep an eye on mog and take him straight back to the vet if the eating problem doesn't resolve itself overnight.

Oh, and I almost forgot:

6) It snowed! Only for about half an hour, and it didn't settle, but the flakes were huge and looked very pretty.

Frith - wow, that's a lot of snow! :shocked:

Hugs to CCP and her kitty. Let's hope.

Went across the country to SPARRA lands, from no snow to loads.

No pleasures today as away from Lady Black.

Goodness frith keep safe
pk being mse os isnt about scrooging, it's about not wasting money so we can splash out on things we value.
And hello to all you others. You are of course all my favourite osers ;-)
1) lovely waking up with oh. We seem to be pretty solid at the mo which i think suits both very well
2) walked to work. 25 mins ending with a bit of uphill so good free exercise. A defo advantage of my new office.
3) seminar in main hospital at lunch time with free lunch. Bumped into best friend. He sed ' of all the corridors in all thr hospitals...' Said i looked very well after my week in poland. A gal always likes to hear that :-)
4) walked home. 10490 steps on my pedometer. A good way to end the day. A bluster of snow but nothing settling
5) then l!dl shop cos out of peppers. Spent rather more than normal, but now mega stocked if we do get snowed in (unlikely so close to the sea and with a one mile wide river outside our house) Scrummy bean stew and now in bed listening to ABC murders on 4 extra.

Big hugs to you both mhags and Mr x

1. NSD - woohoo, its been a while...

2. Called an agency to ask for temp work during school hols, they were initially very sniffy about it as they didn't remember be, but eventually warmed up and fingers crossed!

3. DD had a lovely friend over for tea and they did a couple of dance/gym shows in the sitting room for me, so cute x

4., Finally got round to paying in a cheque to the bank...which was just next door to...

5. the prayer room, where we went for some fab worship time

6. I thought work was going to be oh so quiet as both my main bosses were out today, but my goodness, I found another 'little job' to do that will keep me going for the rest of the week, if not longer! Then, I'll have it all to do again for the other 3 year groups, no rest for the wicked eh?!
