Morning everyone
Thank you all for your comments about the ironing pile. It seems that most of you manage without having to resort to ironing. It is only a few things that I do. I do iron the bedding because like csarina I do like the feel of crisp ironed sheets, and I have a couple of pairs of trousers that however I wash them they always come out crumpled and I have some tops, that always look a mess unless they are ironed.
My plans for a walk yesterday were aborted because of the rain that persisted for most of the day. Hopefully it will be a bit better today and I will be out.
Have a good day everyone whatever you are doing.
The spaghetti Bolognese I made yesterday was nice and there is now a spare portion in the freezer. I’m going to make a beef bourguignon today with a couple of portions to freeze.
I had the pleasant surprise of bumping into someone who I hadn’t seen for a long time yesterday when I was going to the surgery for a blood test. She waited for me and we went and had a coffee and sandwich as it was lunchtime at Waitrose. It was really nice to see her again and I don’t think that there was any reason we stopped seeing each other, other than the pressures of life, so we are going out for dinner next week for a proper catch up, so I have that to look forward to.
The Home Treatment Team workers have been coming between 9.00 and 10.30am as I asked for which is good because it tends to be during the morning when I have a whole day spanning ahead of me that I feel at my lowest, and I need the support.
TA I hope that the op went well yesterday and Mr TA is ok and recovering at home. You are both in my thoughts.
Csarina that was good news about the dresser.
Mrs Salad Dodger reading your post yesterday evening tired me out! I don’t know where you got all that energy from, but if you have some going spare I’ll have some!
Lainey it’s good to read how Lulu has settled in so well with you, it sounds like an ideal partnership.
LameWolf that was a good reason for Mr LW to iron a shirt.
Silver-oldie plum chutney does sound like a good idea, it’s not something I would have thought of but it sounds really good.
Anyhow, have a good day everyone whatever you are doing.
