Morning all,

blowing hard outside, with a grey sky over it. Not nice. The rubbish bag from the rented/ student house across the road is still blowing up and down the hill.

Going to spend a happy morning going through the summer clothes to see what we've got and if anything is needed.

Pen pushing afterwards - less than 100 to go now.

HM lentil soup for lunch. Quorn korma tonight.

Stay warm and safe x

Morning all,

Had a nice lie in today. Going to have a a leisurely breakfast. My beds stripped and the sheets in the wash.
Shall have a good clean after breakfast and pop to Mr T's for a couple if things I couldn't get from Mr A's yesterday.
DGS has a very sore throat and is a bit warm so he will be kept inside in the warm today
I'm loving the Winter Olympics. Tonight we shall try the new Belgian drama on in place of the Bridge that I thought was wonderful from start to finish. I love the fact that they don't all look like models like they do in many English and American programmes.
Hubby is chomping to get outside in the garden but it looks very windy.
Dd has just popped to the library with instructions to bring me something to read, luckily she knows my taste
Better get on, bfn x

Hi everyone,


Happy birthday for yesterday JO.


It's DH's birthday today so we are off to spend the weekend with DD in London. We're going to see Strangers on a Train tonight and tomorrow night DD and I are going to see the Strictly show (her BF bought her the tickets for Christmas).


I wrote my part of the tribute to mum for the funeral on Thursday, it was nice to remember her as she was when I was growing up before she became ill.


Have a good day.

Hi all,

Another one not posting much, but am reading.

Love n hugs to all those who have lost loved ones or having a carp time in general x

I,ve had a weird couple of days - OH in day surgery on Thursday to have a 'thing' removed from his foot, so no driving,walking etc for a few days. Then DD was in day surgery yesterday to have 3 teeth removed, so I have had 2 days off work to sit in hospital !!! The staff were brilliant, especially with DD who came out of anethetic on a complete high and thought she could just walk out to meet her friends at the pub!!!! She then got very tearful and blamed me for not letting her 'have a life' - wonderful staff carefully explained to her and me that her brain was addled and for me to ignore what she was saying/doing - at this point I could have cheerfully removed the rest of her teeth . All ended well in the end - will drop off a box of choccies to the staff to say sorry/thankyou.

Was up early today, went shopping, thought I was going to take off the wind was so strong, just got home when the heavens opened - in comparison we,ve been lucky, living on the coast - heart goes out to all those that have been flooded and worse x

Will spend rest of the weekend cooking and chilling out along with nursemaid duties:o

Wow long post - will shut up now

Hi
It's sunny & blowy here so I've hung the washing on the line, downstairs loo & the kitchen have had a good bottoming, I'm sitting with a cuppa & my knitting & deciding what to do next, probably the stairs
Hubby needs collecting at 1ish & hopefully will be able to play in the garden this afternoon.
DD bought me some beautiful red tulips last weekend & they are still going strong, I'm really surprised as tulips usually fade very quickly & my Imbolc Narcissus is in full bloom, they cheer the room up no end.
Right, back to the knitting, I'm determined to have 6 cardies knitted by the time the twins arrive
Hugs Hester

Hi all
OH came home last night, but is going back on Monday to sort out the funeral etc. MIL wants a wicker coffin and a woodland burial. She told us this quite a few years ago.

Just done "the classic" washed some clothes with a tissue in the pocket of my trousers tissue everywhere now!:mad:

Steak for dinner tonight. Donald Russell special offer. Watching the rugby this afternoon, Come on Wales!

Afternoon all,

Just got back from dropping OH at his hockey match and picked up some fruit and salad bits while I was out. Wow it is windy out there! :eek:

tru - glad you finally got to meet little Ethan. My OH is just like that with any minor DIY, why do they spend so long faffing around when we could just get on with it?!

forever saving - hope you feel better soon

Hester - no I've not seen anything from Judi, also a few others seem to have gone awol, glitterkitty, NoahsPennilessMummy, notjustlaura etc. If any of you are out there reading, let us know you're ok!

snoozer - have a lovely time in London

Right, I've finished my soup and bread so time to get some more of today's jobs done: washing, general tidy up and making something to use up some lemons that are getting past their best.

Emma

P.S. I've been meaning to ask, do people usually click 'Thanks' when they are reading through the posts? I noticed I have a lot of thanks and have not been giving them back!

NoahsPennilessMummy

Hi
Thanks for asking about me:A
I'm fine, just been really busy with Noah's LEA case. More suicidal issues as he is writing in his diary that he hates life and wants to die:( another 6 weeks till he starts his CAmHS therapy! I explained on the phone about this and was told" oh they rarely act on it just keep telling him how good life is".........yeah great:mad:
Also very tired as Asher not sleeping at all so days are just a blur.

DH having a sleep now for a couple of hours then its my turn.

Tea tonight is bacon, onion and potato hotpot and I'm making some Chelsea buns.
Just having a cuddle with Asher and watching Greys Anatomy.

Hello lovelies :wave: :wave:

Stranger sneaking in to say Happy belated birthday to my surrogate mum JackieO

Sounds like you had a lovely day matey and sorry I wasn't here yesterday but you know me

Good to catch up with everyones news and sorry to hear about your loss Hilstep

Sorry I have no OS news to share atm as I am working away sunday to friday every week so I am having to put up with room service meals which trust me are dreadful compared to anything I can do myself for a quarter of the price :mad:
Weekends are about chilling and a bit of cleaning for me right now so no chance of nice big cooking days for a while.

Have a great weekend everyone :A
