O/S Daily Saturday 26 February 2022

Morning everyone 

Hugs to those that want/need them, those who are poorly and those who are looking after a poorly person x

Happy birthday to those with a birthday x  

Still dark,- air feels cold.

DH watching catchup tv, I'm enjoying first cuppa and a brekkie bar before getting a shower.  DS1 still in his pit.  DS2 happy and settled.

Dinner last night was chicken and bacon keivs, herbed hot new potatoes and beans for the menfolk.  I had fishcakes and veg.  Tonight I'm not sure what we'll be eating.

Yesterday didn't feel very productive, although I did get done the 3 big things that were top of the "to do" list.  I will try to get some things done this morning to satisfy my need to feel like I have achieved something.

Keep safe and well x

Morning folks, thanks for starting us off nmlc. 

The calmness of yesterday hasn't lasted, the wind is back with a vengeance. Perhaps it'll die back soon. 

News of retrieved bedding, the return of lost cats and visits to families is lovely to read. 

I enjoyed my shopping trip yesterday, the first proper one for ages, not that I bought much but being out and about was good. Now I have more fresh vegetables for the week ahead. 

My chat with family in Oz yesterday morning was interestingly alarming, Queensland is having exceptionally severe rains. One town near to SIL is expecting the Mary River to reach a height of 20 metres. 😱 Scary stuff. 

On a lighter note, today is my time to eat cake and drink fizz, I won't start yet 😀 though I'm looking forward to it later. There's a wee pile of mail to open and an intriguing parcel to explore. This is the first time in my life that there'll be nothing from my beloved DM, it'll be very weird and already sad. The 'firsts' always will be, I'll be raising a glass to her later. 

My thoughts are with our poorlies, happy Saturday to all.

Morning folks and thanks NML   It's set to be fine weekend hereabouts so I am hoping son in law that was will be able to come and sort the chimney out without the risk of getting blown off the roof!

Happy Birthday GERS enjoy your cake and fizz and opening your intriguing parcel! 

The terrible news from the Ukraine gets worse by the day. I honestly can't imagine how it's all going to end. Virtually the whole world, including lots of his own citizens, are against that maniac's actions. He has daughters and GC, you wonder what they are feeling. SNOOZER you are far from alone with your worries about what sort of world it will be for our DGC. 

I shall be getting the first bus into town this morning as usual. No doubt it will just be the usual 3 musketeers going down and back up! Just odd bits from Bodycare and the PO needed. Also a pop into the bank.

Have a good day folks if you can and ((HUGS)) for our poorlies and fed ups. Take care one and all and be safe x

Morning All

Happy Birthday Gers! Enjoy opening your mail, drinking fizz and eating cake.

Pleased to hear your cat has returned dp1, what a lovely surprise.
Hope you are recovered now Ruby.
Good luck with your sale today Florence, wish I lived nearer.

Very blustery here this morning, a bit too rough to go for a dip so I shall go to Costco instead with DD and the little one. There's also a big Home Bargains nearby so I shall stock up on toiletries and probably lots of other rubbish I don't really need!

Although busy I really enjoyed my week at work, I actually feel like I achieved quite a lot. Always good to get to 3pm on a Friday though. 

Washing to go in once I've had a shower, I may risk putting it on the line for a while. 

Have a good weekend, take care. XX

Good morning everyone, thanks for the start nmlc.

Happy Birthday Gers – enjoy your special day.

I am off to FC later – feeling a bit less bloated/chunky so hope that shows on the scales. I will have breakfast once I’m back. Whilst in the town I will get my eyebrows threaded and dyed, plus pick up a paper.

I took 4 bags of haberdashery stuff to the charity shop yesterday. It was part of a stash left at church several years ago when someone had died. It will go to a good home and will raise valuable funds for the PDSA. I also got a wash load line dried whoohoo.

Today will be more washing plus a walk with a friend this afternoon. I have a list of housework jobs to do too. If I can get it all done today, I can relax tomorrow – that’s the plan 😊

Have a good day everyone,

Coxy

Morning all, 
I wrote a reply, I hit something on the keyboard and it went away.
So, in short, hugs to all who need them, and a Happy Birthday to Gers!
Take care all. x

Morning, Hugs if you need one.

Happy birthday Gers, I hope you enjoy your day.

Earlier in the week I ordered the fold up bed for the back bedroom, much to my surprise it arrived yesterday, no prior notification, so it is here and I just have to move it to where its going to stay. Headboard acts as a shelf when its packed away.

Bright morning, off to the market for fruit, did not go last week, too windy.

Supper is salmon and salad.

Good morning

Dry and calm here at the moment, makes a change.

Happy birthday  🎂  Gers

No plans for today, may go for a walk if it stays dry, other than that is the usual housework stuff

I'm trying to only listen to the news once as it's so desperately sad and so unnecessary 

Have as good a day as you can 🌻
