Happy Birthday to Mr F, a nice day for a birthday my DDs ma-in-law Margaret is 85 today bless her, and I've just been chatting to her on the phone. She had a great day with lots of good things.
I had a great lunch with my DGS and lots of nattering and giggles

Good Morning chums, and a beautiful sunny day here in the Garden of England again.
well done Flornceem and to Mr F for getting the weight off .it will probably have saved his life.
1. Today is coffee morning, two hours of nattering and laughing at my local Dobbies with my friends
2. Washing all dried ,folded and put awayI hate putting it away I don't know why
3. My dear sis-in-law Val is at last back in her own home after a long haul of getting her health back following a big operation on her lungs. it was touch and go for awhile, and has been staying at her daughters.
4. The days are getting longer and the brighter evenings are increasing. That always cheers me up
have a good day everyone

Had a good time at the SA today - Mr F was poorly in bed so I went on my own and left him to sleep.
Had 10 knitted creme egg chicks collected this evening.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering - 2024 - 8,365 August - 0/45

Florenceem with Easter nearly here I'm looking forward to seeing what you will be making next? I've enjoyed looking at both your Christmas and Easter makes 🙂
I hope Mr F feels better tomorrowLife shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin6 -
Good Morning everyone, weather a bit cooler this morning but dry at least
1. my eldest granddaughter came for a cuppa this morning and brought my two little great granddaughters to see me.They are 4 & 2 and dear little lassies.
2. going to bake some biscuits this afternoon, I fancy some cinnamon cookies for a change.
3. Did the inventory of my tinned stuff yesterday and nothing to buy for several weeks now
4. Managed to get all the sheets and duvet cover and pillowcases on the line this morning and they are blowing nicely
Had a bit of a problem with my laptop as whenever I close it down I lose the ability to log back onto the site ,no idea why, and I have to change my password every time, weird

Our department was told this morning to return home due to another covid outbreak within the company.
I don't mind WfH but it is a bit desensitising. But when I returned home about 25 minutes ago my partner had left me a KitKat on the kitchen table (I had text her to say I was coming back home).
She knows I love KitKats, but we had none in the house. So clearly she must have gone to the local shop and bought me one, came back home before setting off to her place of work.
The KitKat was a nice bonus, but the fact she had gone out of her way to get me one (and not for the first time) really pleased me.10 -
