Morning All
I've decided not to go to work, will get a sick line for this week. I'll never get better if I go in as it's bedlam all day. Although I do feel much better I really don't think I would be able to get through a whole day at the moment.
Didn't sleep too well last night but then I did watch Happy Valley which made my heart race at times! May have a Nana nap later.
I've washed my work coat and hung it out, hopefully it will drip dry enough to bring it in before it rains. DW doing its thing.
Enjoy your book club Scarlet.
Lovely snowdrops Gers, always a sign of things to come.
Sorry you've lost a friend Ruby.
Hugs to those in need, hope the poorlies are recovering.
Take care. XX9 -
Morning all. It's cold but very sunny and I must remember to chop more kindling later on. Got up silly late, went to bed at silly late, had to get up for a sandwich at four I was so hungry. Just got up again. This fannying around with sleep is getting on my nerves. Going to ikea later with two friends, I am going to get some plates and bowls, the cheapest thin white ones, I smashed a couple and this has, oddly, put my dishwasher schedule out because there aren't enough plates and bowls to go between the two washes a week now [one on Monday, one on Friday - which is when the milkman comes so the bottles get done] One of the friends is a newbie to this kind of thing, it was her birthday at the weekend, poor thing, it was very badly organised and doing nothing she wanted to so this is kind of a consolation prize, get out of the house for an evening thing, as she's also having a bit of a rubbish time realtionship wise. Me, I am consolidatiing items now ready for a drop, probably tomorrow or Friday.Ruby, congrats to your daughter, very well done! and this will sound odd but your funeral sounds like a good one, a real celebration of their life, the kind I like to go to not the kind where it was an unexpected shock..camelot, good thinking, get actually well. Gers, lovely snowdrops, I keep forgetting to plant them..Hope the missing are getting on OK [ well, you probably aren't otherwise you'd be posting wouldn't you? ] but you know that is a sorry way fo saying, thinking of you...SO take care anyway...Non me fac calcitrare tuum culi9

Hi everyone,
Late one from me today - it's the first time I've managed to get online.
Gers, the lunch was lovely thank you although the pub was very busy and noisy. It was nice to see all the littlies together.
Poor Esther now has the lurgy and is not very happy, poor little dot. Steve is gradually getting better thank goodness.
I took Esben to his music class but I don't think he's getting much out of it now, it was very crowded and he spent most of his time sitting on my knee. I also made another loaf of sourdough and have some dough proving to make sourdough cinnamon buns in the morning, we'll see how they turn out.
Have a good evening.6
