Good Morning Tuesday

Morning all from a bright North Leicestershire.

Didnt make it even into the wardrobe yesterday kate, never mind Narnia. We are finding that a project every other day works for us. Though I did polish the furniture in the dining room!

I also hate not having a routine and the freedom to nip to Waitrose for milk. DH and I are usually very busy with volunteering and friends and family and are a bit rudderless without that. My mum used to say that it's good to have things to hang your week on and she was right - certainly in our case. And, I miss my cleaner!!

Take care everyone!

Good Morning everyone.
Quite sunny here in Oxfordshire.
That is a lovely idea for your grandsons NanKate
Had a really wobbly day yesterday but am determined today will be better. Have stripped the bed for a start so lovely clean sheets should help for a better night.
Best wishes to all

Good morning everyone from a bright and sunny Essex by the sea.
Another day, they all seem to merge into each other at the moment.
I have a tea loaf to make, the fruit has been soaking overnight then we are going for a walk along by the sea.
I had a lovely chat with one of my 11 year old granddaughters yesterday. She is usually very monosyllabic but she was telling me what she misses and how she is keeping in touch with her friends. She is in year 6 and due to start secondary school in September and is really upset that she may not go back to Junior school this school year.
Well upwards and onwards as they say.
Have the best day you can and stay safe xx

Good morning everybody from a dry bright Inverness.

Just woken up listening to the birds singing and noticed yesterday we had some birds in the little nesting box on the side of the house

I’m feeling a bit subdued this morning after the news about Boris - I really hope he pulls through this dreadful illness . And many others in the same situation

Take care everyone especially if you need to go out and take care ?

Good morning everyone, we had an extra busy day yesterday, had a 7am walk with the dog...then spent the rest of the day cooking and cleaning, DH spent the Whole day building shelving in the garage, only stopping for a bite of lunch and being called in for dinner @6pm. Had a food delivery at 8pm which took me an hour to disinfect and put away...I was glad to get to bed last night. Today I’m going to order plants from a nearby nursery who are doing home deliveries so that should keep me occupied for a day or two. Sending good wishes to everyone and thinking of all those who are doing it tough at the moment.

Morning All

A beautiful sunny spring day here in the north of Norfolk.

Seeds have been planted, weeds weeded, winter dead bits carefully trimmed back. I may go outside and polish the tulips or cut the edge of the lawn with scissors. Anything to avoid sorting the compost heap.

Virtual group hug to everyone who's feeling the strain.

Good Morning from a very bright Black Country.

I too miss the routine. Just small things like wandering into town and browsing charity shops, popping to visit family.

Up early as hard to sleep with the news last night. I sincerely hope he pulls through this.

Ironing done yesterday, and will be sorting out wardrobe this week and putting away the winter clothes and bringing out from boxes in the loft the summer clothes. I always find things I have totally forgotten about, so it is like having something new!

Good luck with the new job Scentia

That is a very good idea regarding the grandchildren NanKate. Always a good incentive when cash is involved

Wishing you all a good day

Mythbirtthedragon Lego is ok to go in the dishwasher, as are most plastic toys.

Goodmorning Mick and all x

I am missing my routine also Mick I should imagine that is the same for so many at this strange moment in time.

I have been awake since 5am, my sleeping pattern is all over the place.

The birds are very vocal here in S E Essex, no seagulls on the field so the sea must be calm, blue skies and a warm day is forecast.

I am going to tackle the wardrobe that I intended to do yesterday, in my defence I finished the ironing!

Keep safe and well folks (I do hope our PM pulls through)

Good morning from east London, promising blue sky outside; I thought it felt a bit cool until I remembered we’d turned the heating off yesterday. The Council has closed some of the smaller parks near here due to people not observing ‘the rules’ and all parks are going to be closed from 6pm. DP has been cleaning the toys he’s brought down from our back attic; surprising how far the dust from the building works went, as well as how long they’ve been up there. He mentioned he’d given up washing the Lego piece by piece (!) and reverted to bulk swilling. I didn’t think things had got that bad. Have a good day.

Well done for just keeping on keeping on Scentia! Enjoy cycling with the pooch.

Morning Mick and All.

Pale orange sun rising over South Bucks.

I too miss my routine*Mick*. I know I will appreciate the simple things in life when we return to normal, if normal still exists.

Must get down to finishing the weekly challenge I send to my 2 grandsons eg Measure yourselves and tell me how tall you are, what would Tudor people have eaten at a banquet etc? I am paying them 10p for every question they get right.

Have you come back Kitty from the back of your wardrobe and did you pop into Narnia? ?

Good Morning all from East Staffordshire. It looks like we are in for a sunny day today.
‘Working’ from home today, I will take the pooch out on the bike later, but first I need to get a new work contract printed out, signed and returned. I have taken a job to help out with our finances whilst the factory is in partial lockdown. Hope I cope with a ‘proper’ job!!
I hope everyone has the best day possible today and stay safe everyone❤️

Morning Mick and everyone. It's been a bright moonlit night and the moon is just setting over the woods opposite. The blackbird made me laugh this morning it was making such a racket. Yesterday was warmer in Cheshire but there was a flurry of what looked a bit like snow at one point.

I did some work in the garden yesterday and in the absence of plants to fill spaces, I divided some forget-me-nots and dotted those around. I may regret it when they take over, but the splash of blue is lovely and is my lockdown answer to sparse flower beds. Today I hope to sit and enjoy them.

My usual walk in the woods round 9.00 and then settle into my new norm. Bake a little, paint a little and sit a lot. Sounds like a firm of solicitors. Watched Ladies in Black yesterday and loved the 50's fashions. Was it really so long ago I had dresses like those?

I've got some music I can do Zuma Gold to, so I'll have a session later. Thanking my lucky stars that I have lovely neighbours who top up my food stores so I don't have to go to the shops.

Very warm wishes to everyone. Stay safe and well.

Good Morning everyone from Severnside where it is dry and should be a lovely day.

It’ll be a day much the same as yesterday for me, pottering and more tidying. I will go into the garden even if it’s just to sit although I do want to get the patio area tidy by Easter.

The blossom is coming out on the trees in my street, Hope is in the air along with a contrail at the moment heading east.

Look after yourselves all and stay safe ?
