Frump to Fab 2021

Wednesday2000

I just got a text saying I am getting the Covid jab because of an underlying health condition so I have booked the first one for next week and then the other at the end of May. I'm not sure what health condition they mean that means I get it! I will take it anyway. That is good. It's at a different site to the one my husband had and it's further away from my house. I wonder if that means I am getting a different vaccine to the one he had?

Thanks so much for all the good wishes for my birthday. You are such a kind lot on here. 😊 Last night's fish and chip supper was absolutely delicious. Such a treat as I haven't had one for probably two or three years. 😋

What you might find Wednesday is that if you accept this appointment another offer more locally will come in beforehand. You can then cancel the first one if the location suits you better. My friend messaged me today because that's happened to her. She had to make an appointment 12 miles away last week and yesterday her GP has texted with an earlier (and nearer home) appointment. 

Is the banana hair masque a Garnier product from Superdrug? I'd like to give it a try as it sounds good. My DDs really spoiled me yesterday. DD1 gave me a Jo Malone candle and DD2 some of my favourite Clarins Eau Dynamissante. I also had some fun presents like a packet of welshcakes (all gone😉) and these crisps. 

I was amused by the strap line 'made from potatoes born and bred in Wales'. Just like me! 😁

Back to normal here today after all yesterday's excitement! 🤣 Most importantly, back to the healthy eating, although I still have the crisps to eat. 

I was very slow getting started today as I had various phone calls from family. We're all promising to meet up as soon as we can. We're not making any firm plans so as not to be disappointed but I get the feeling that most of the country is working to the given dates.   DH had a phone call from his hairdresser and we've had various emails from restaurants we use advertising their al fresco dining from next month.  Even though the PM said he's going on data, he's going to find it hard to disappoint business by putting the brakes on.🤔

Glad your birthday went well.

maman - this may not be of any help to you, but if you have access to Asda mine was £3.48 on Wednesday 390ml, even with my hair long it will last for ages.

That's brilliant maddie. I'm lucky to have all the supermarkets locally. I'll be off to Asda ASAP. 😁

Hello Ladies,

Happy Mother's Day    I hope you are all enjoying your day even if circumstances have stopped you from celebrating surrounded by your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

My daughter lives 2 walk away and she called first thing with cards and gifts.  My son lives on the other side of the Pennines and I’ve had a delivery from him.  I’m very fortunate.

My husband and I have walked to the churchyard where both our mothers are buried and placed flowers on the graves.  My MIL died 40 years ago and my own mum 12 years but of course they are in our thoughts often not just on this special day.  It was surprisingly busy at the cemetery.  Lots of people on the same errand.

Happy Mothering Sunday to one and all.

When I said it was further away I didn't mean it was that far. It's still only about 20 minutes. It's just that my husband had to literally only walk for 5 minutes from our home to get his Covid jab so I was expecting the same as him.

I just read that Ireland has suspended the use of the AZ vaccine because of blood clots. I bet that is the one I get offered tomorrow!
