Morning everyone
Grey and raining here. Yesterday got out nice in the afternoon - I got my towels dried outside.
I wasted so much time trying to sort my computer problem, then googled 'can I have 2 browsers' and got the answer yes - wished I had just asked that question earlier! Anyways it's working just fine now.
Little one had a good day yesterday - I was watching her from nursery window running around the school field with her friends - she looked so happy.
More photos arrived from eldest DD in Bali - beautiful blue skies and sea - she's on an island called Lombok now.
Better get on - I got up so late that it's nearly time to go to work. I'm not feeling so good just now, work is completely exhausting me, although it's very quiet - yesterday I fell asleep on the sofa when I got in.
Hope everyone has a good day x9 -
Hello all, it's wet and very windy here too, hopefully it will have calmed down by the time we go out for Mr Fix It's oncology injection this afternoon.
Yesterday we managed to dodge the rain and went back over the van to collect the last of the holiday stuff, now we only need to put the cover back on. Mr Fix It wasn't very well in the afternoon and was shivering so I put the heating on to warm the house for him. I also put a couple of loads in the wm and got some of the clothes dried, there are some left to do but they can wait.
We had an upsetting phone call about DNiece late last night and then neither of us slept much. She has deteriorated with more infections which refuse to budge even bombarded with treatment, so she's now on pallative end of life care.
Take care all, stay safe. Hugs to the poorly ones and anyone in need.

Morning everyone sorry to hear about your DNiece nanny how sad sending love you and your family. Pouring down here and chilly I’ve just come in from a cleaning job so I’m going to have a cuppa and five minutes sit I have prepared a big pan of soup to last us for the rest of the week before I went to work this morning I’ve just turned it on I will blitz it when I come in tonight it will have cooled down and will portion it up I’m eating the last of the soup today that I made at the weekend it’s definitely soup weather . I’ve been watching the woman in the wall it’s the last one next week I still haven’t made my mind up about it but it’s grown on me . I had to go into work early yesterday the girl who works there her hubby took bad in the doctors and was rushed to hospital he’s had a few problems and he’s now got a few more he’s home now and she’s back to work today but it was panic stations for a while your healths your wealth as my dad used to say and he lived until 3 months after his hundredth birthday in a bungalow and walked every day I hope I’m the same . Thinking of all the poorlies hugs to those that need them have a good day everyone whatever you are doing10
