Morning
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
Dark, air feels cool to start the day.
DH and DS1 getting ready for work, I'm showered, dressed and enjoying my first cuppa and my porridge whilst on here. DS2 settled and happy..
Dinner last night was jacket potatoes, cheese, beans/rice/salad, breaded chicken portions. I remembered to get the meat out to defrost - so will be putting a beef stew on to cook in the slow cooker for tonight, hoping we can get more than 1 meal for us from this.
Work wasn't too bad, we'll see how today goes.
Keep safe and well x

Good morning, thanks for starting NMLC.We returned from our visit to the west country yesterday afternoon, having had a good time, if a bit hectic, visiting family there.I've just put a wash load in, hope I can get it at least half dry. We've got appointments for flu jabs this morning and I'll do a bit of shopping while I'm out.Sadly, we came home to the news that a close friend had fallen at the weekend, and her head injury is so bad she's not expected to survive, I can't take it in really. I saw her a day or two before we went away, and while she did have health problems, she still had a good life. We were planning to meet up this week.Haven't read back yet, but I just popped on to say hello.Hope everyone has a good day today, take care folks.12

Morning All
Thanks for the start nmlc.
Welcome home Scarlet, sorry to hear of your friend.
Yay to the moany one not appearing Ruby!
Dry for now but not to last sadly. Yesterday wasn't too bad, just a few showers but the children could get out to play which is a big bonus.
New Head Teacher seems very nice, wants to get rid of all the clutter thank goodness so lots of clearing out to be done with a skip arriving later this week. We've been here before, lots of things thrown away then the same things bought again, such a waste.
I went for a swim last night, really enjoyed it, had quite a good night's sleep too. Saw the little one on my way home, she's loving nursery.
Off on the bus so must dash, take care. XX10 -
Morning all well we are home from Mexico in general a good time was had by all but a few issues that needed to be dealt with but all sorted in the end .I have had to make my own breakfast this morning which was a shock to the system neither was i able to have a mimosa with my bagel !!! Anyway I am off shopping in a bit had a sleep when we got in so i couldn't sleep last night so washing has been done will probably need a nana nap later hope you all have been behaving whilst i was away will try to catch up with the thread later

Morning folks and thanks NMLC. Welcome back SCARLET but sorry to read about your friend.
RUBY I hope you enjoyed your day without the mardy one yesterday. DP1 pleased the cinema trip went well. IZZY when we had our two border collies one of them was terrified of loud noises and was reduced to a shivering wreck around firework time, Strangely they didn't bother the younger one at all. My DF's springer is terrified and on a recommendation she bought a thunder jacket which was supposed to make the dog feel secure - sadly it doesn't help. I hope the NANS had a lovely anniversary day and that MR NAN the elder had a happy birthday! Sending get well vibes to the SNOOZER family. The bug has gone on long enough now.
Well it's Tuesday again but sadly not a coffee 'n lunch day as BFF has succumbed to yet another nasty cough. She says she seems to catch everything that's going since her op and subsequent treatment. I intended to pick up my shipping order of meds and one or two other bits when we parted company today but I had decided to go down yesterday instead! Am I psychic? So no need to go out today and, as another mild day is forecast, I might venture out and try to sort out the garden a bit.
Have a good day folks if you can and ((HUGS)) for all our poorlies, fed up and MIA. Take care all and be safe xx
Sorry BELLA cross posting! Welcome back!"If you dream alone it will remain just a dream. But if we all dream together it will become reality"11 -
Morning all.Welcome back Scarlet and Bella, though such sad news about your friend Scarlet.My delivery of the TV table came very early and was very quick too, just as well as the JL driver stopped the van in the track. Luckily nothing wanted past it, half an hour later there was a flurry of cows being moved to a new field. 😀
TV now set up. New floor lamp from blue and yellow shed is being delivered today, all I'm waiting for is the chair which is due in late November. The large cotton rug really needs to go to the launderers before going back down, I'll take it there today in hope of a service wash.My postie was delighted with the gifted hard drives, I'm just as delighted to have been able to pass them on. There's two more to go though these are both 12 years old so may well be on the way out. We'll see.After all the shenanigans down south I'm hoping for less troubled times. 🤞
I hope that everyone is doing well. Happy Tuesday to all.10 -
Morning everyone welcome back scarlet and Bella such sad news about your friend I hope she recovers thinking of you. TA we bought a thunder jacket for the dog but unfortunately every time we got it out she thought the fireworks were coming she ended up been terrified of it .well I’ve got a week of working with the boss absolutely loads of work in and more to come she decided yesterday she wasn’t speaking so after been ignored a few times I give in it’s a horrible atmosphere when she’s in that mood it’s going to be a long week. WW tonight let’s see what’s happening after a good start I think I’ve come to a stop I’m sticking to it but nothing seems to be happening we will see .thinking of all the poorlies hugs to those that need them have a good day everyone whatever you are doing11

Morning all
Its a bit dull and overcast here but the sun is due out later on, two lovely clients due today and we are going to have a walk around a local park and have a picnic lunch and then get a hot drink in the cafe there, if we have time we will come bak and bake a banana loaf.
DD is away tonight for work two of them are going to a psychiatric hospital in Kent to shadow work a late shift tonight and an early one tomorrow morning, they are opening a new house where she works and three people from this hospital are coming to live in it so they are doing some shifts to know what to expect.
So only OH and I for dinner tonight I shall do a thai curry and rice, I need to get the mince out for a cottage pie for tomorrow too.
Scarlet I am sorry to hear about your friend xx
Bella welcome back xx
I spoke to Nels yesterday she is ok but struggling with pain in her hands and feel so typing is difficult for her atm, sending love to you Nels xx
Have good days all xx11 -
Morning everyone
Nice dry morning here - I may get some tidying done in the garden later. Really need to sort the shed out too.
Little kitten seems fine after her op yesterday - last night she was going crazy running round and jumping over the sofas.
I've a day to myself today, so will get a few jobs done and probably have a good read later too.
Scarlet ribbons - so sorry to hear about your friend x
Bella - welcome back, I always feel breakfast back home is such a let down after staying in a hotel.
Gers your room sounds lovely - are you making an upstairs living room?
Snoozer - hope you're all feeling a bit better today. Theres nothing worse than having to entertain a little one when you're feeling awful.
Camelot - good news that your little one is enjoying nursery
Well hope everyone has a good day today x12 -
Morning all
It's a beautiful day in Kent. The washing is out. Sorry to hear your sad news Scarlett. It's always such a shock when someone seems fit and well.
Today's plans, food shopping for essentials, probably some more baking, a bit of cleaning and pottering about.
Have a good day all 😊11 -
Morning all! the weather can't make it's mind up what it's doing today, we've had a bit of everything so far. Made the picalilli, I think this one will be a good one, I tweaked the recipe I usually use [Cottage smallholder christmas picalilli if anyone fancies a go] a bit with extra spices and double mustard and it tastes good as it is, so once it's mellowed a bit, should be better I made eight bonne maman jars, three half litres and a litre jar so I'm good for presents and my own munching. My cousin and friend have already put their orders in. Today I'm making piles for the CS and the tip. Ive decied we don't need some of the china that's in the cupboard [ mainly those low pasta type bowls, too big] and I've got my chuck things out head on again. Sorted the paperwork yesterday so there's a pile to shred, luckily, I was running out of paper for the compost. Made chicken casserole last night so that's ready for tonight. Might do some rosemary and thyme dumplings to go with it. Not an awful lot going on really.Scarlet, wb, sorry to hear about your friend, it's a shock. camelot, plus ca change...etc.... bella, wb to you too,mimosas for breakfast? sign me up TA, I expect she will, her immune system has had a bashing, enjoy your potter day...Gers, your flurry of cows woulddelight my sister, she has a special fondness for them, even more so should they be wearing bells..Izzy, is there no other job you can do? It sounds horrendous. Ruby, enjoy your day. Nels, what a pain in the anti-butt....Sending good day vibes, and commiserations if not...Shampoo? No thanks, I'll have real poo...11
