Good morning all from a bright, but cold Glasgow, where it is -1C.
Happy Mothering Sunday to mothers everywhere, especially to those whose children are no longer with them. ?
DD has just message me a whole set of photos of when they were all young. ?. I don't know how her brothers are going to outdo her! ?
I'm thinking especially of my dear friend, who buried her son on Friday and whose other son is stuck in Australia and couldn't come to the funeral. ?
I know this will be a difficult day for Anniebach too. ?
After spending all day in bed yesterday, I feel much better. Poor DH was convinced that I had Coronavirus and was very concerned. . It's that fact that I never take to my bed, that worried him, but I was just exhausted after all the drama this week. However, life must go on.
I have received so much support on GN, that I'm overwhelmed.
A read of the papers and then hopefully a wee bit of tidying up in the garden is in order. It has been neglected this year, as I haven't been able to do much.
It will look great, with all this time we will have to spend on it. ?????.
Then again, we can't get out to buy bedding plants! .
My tablet packed up last night and has a fault that cannot be fixed, so it will need to be flattened and reset to factory settings. and I will lose all the progress I have made on my word games. ?.
On top of that there is something wrong with my emails, so I shall have to dust off my old techie hat and try and fix things. I do like a challenge! . My only worry is that there is something sinister afoot! ?
I may not see my children today, but they have been absolute stars. It was DS2's birthday yesterday, but as we were unable to see him, DD left a care package for him on his doorstep.
DD came back to her flat later to find a single toilet roll and a mini bottle of Prosecco on hers!
They are determined to stay away to keep DH and I safe. On the other hand it could be an excuse not to have to put up with their dear old mum
My future SIL went at 8am yesterday to collect my medication, as he always does, only to find that they were operating on limited opening hours. He then went back to queue for an hour to get them, but his own weren't available. Very difficult times for us all.
DD left another care package on the doorstep, complete with Creme eggs and some After Eights as a treat! .
I shall look like the side of a house, when this is all over.
DS1 also organised a Facetime with DGD doing a special dance for me to Neil Diamond's Cracklin' Rosie, one of the first singles, I ever bought, it really cheered me up. ??
Thinking of all those with pain and sorry.
Megs I hope there is some improvement in your husband's condition.
Enjoy your day the best you can in these awful times.
