5 OS pleasures in your day today - part 3

Highdays  please don’t ever not post your pleasures. I’m sure Sue knows you wouldn’t ever cause her hurt. 

Those of us who’ve been here a long time and there’s some that have been posting more than fifteen years have all shared our highs and our lows in amongst the mundane…beans on toast for tea mixed with lovely days out/holidays. We’ve shared smiles and tears and virtual hugs, laughter and growls! 

So keep on being you and sharing your trips away with your family. ( I love reading g about your trips away with them and how your grandchildren are getting on!) 


I’ll quickly post just now seeing as I’m here! 

Slept reasonably well. 

The Pup was surprised to be up as early but was happy to get his breakfast then! 

We went to garden centre and I had a lovely apple and cinnamon scone. Had a wander. Got some cyclamen and winter pansies that I’m just about to go and plant at front door. Had hoped my autumn plants would have lasted a bit longer but they are scruffy! 

When we left there was a very stiff breeze so said can we nip past caravan ( don’t tell dog) and I grabbed the bedding off my bed. So that is currently having the biggest blow on the line and it might not be fully dried but should be about 3/4 dry. And that should be everything brought back ( bar my coat/ dressing gown ) 

DD2 went home for a wee while and has just returned! And the volume has just increased tenfold! 

We are going to have some French toast for late lunch. Once I’ve planted the plants! 

And I have done work admin…printing and making my invoice. 

Looking forward to Strictly!

For the last couple of days,

There’s been a lot of weather, rain, wind, sun and today some hail as well but rainbows too.

There has been a good catch up with loved ones, admiration of house renovations by youngest niece & her fella and a tasty lunch out with a DSIL.

There is a broken boiler so hot water bottles, extra blankets and thick jumpers are featuring heavily!

Oh and just to add to it our tv appears to be on the way out, pleasure is we do have a spare one upstairs that’s unused so tomorrow’s job is to check it still works ( was DM’s).

But Capt S is currently out picking up a Chinese takeaway, we have a convector heater which is going from room to room and I’ve just poured a glass of wine so not all bad ☺️

Highdays please don’t ever stop posting your pleasures and I’m so glad you found happiness .

I live vicariously through everyone’s pleasure even when I’m not posting 
I’ve been very down for a while so not been finding many of my own and the final straw last week was yet another Golden Wedding Celebration by friends 
DH died 3 months before ours .so bittersweet though really happy for them 

However I have many pleasures today 

My DGD and I have been to London to ABBA Voyage ! It was fantastic 

I don’t think she’ll ever recover from seeing me standing in front of my seat dancing and singing at the top of my voice 😀

we had a lovely Italian meal first and at the grand old age of 76 I have been to my first pop concert ( if that counts ) 

another pleasure is that my other hip ( the one I was born with ) has been v painful and I was expecting to have to go on the list for replacement 
however I finally saw the physio last week and he thinks it may well be a severe sciatica .
i have been faithfully doing the exercises he gave me and today I have managed a lot of walking and stairs with no pain 
He plans to maybe give me a steroid injection in to it in a couple of weeks if necessary ,but hopefully that will sort it 

if you’ll have me back I’d love to rejoin you and start trying to find pleasures in my daily life again
