Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark, and its ben snowing but not much from the looking out of my window here in brackley.
Looked properly at my discharge from hospital papers, changes slightly in medication , plus next month I will have monitor fitted to me to measure my heart rate over a given period.
Otherwise OK .
Take Care,
Mick

Good morning at precisely midday. A light scattering of snow here on the West Sussex coast. The sky looks dark enough to shed some more.

Love all the photos - good to see the west coast getting the sunshine Happyme.

I started sorting digital photos on the Mac yesterday. I used a PC at work and was scared of the Mac but decided not to wait any longer for DH to organise the photos grin.

DD2 in Scotland phoned to say she’s booked us a supermarket delivery slot - I gave up trying to get one weeks ago. So thoughtful of her.

Time to tackle the long neglected ironing. Then I can do something nice - but what? hmm

Good afternoon everyone (sorry I’m a bit late!)
It’s sunny and very cold in my part of Liverpool! Had a couple of snow showers but nothing really to speak of much to my young DGS disappointment! ?
DH has finished painting the dining room yea! Took him 3 days as we kept getting interrupted by grandchildren visiting I’m not complaining I know some grandparents are still not able to see their grandchildren ?
Going to collect a fire guard I’ve ordered from Dunelm as we are having a log burner installed soon. Other than that not much else happening. Love reading what everyone else is up to. Stay safe and well all x

Good Afternoon everyone. I can’t believe I have only just got up and that I am still in my pyjamas ??. I had a rotten night last night with neck and shoulder pain making it difficult to sleep and then round about getting up time I finally fell asleep. I am not missing much as it is -4 degrees ( with windchill) in my corner of North Wales and as we don’t have any snow it looks just rather cold and grey.
I have decided that this week is going to be a Ta Da sort of week as I have lost my mojo recently. For those of you that don’t know about Mrs Hinch, Ta Da days are days where you celebrate your achievements rather than feel guilty about the things you haven’t done. I am a great one for making to do lists, I think it comes from all my years as a teacher. Making a list was the best way to be organised and try and keep on top of jobs or at the very least, slightly less behind. To do lists I find now a little bit de motivating when it appears that little has been achieved. So at the end of every day this week, I shall complete a Ta Da list, even getting up and dressed can be an achievement some days. Talking of which, getting dressed is some thing I need to go and do before popping back on here later.
Sending warm wishes to everyone and hope that you all have a Ta Da sort of day. ???

Good afternoon, everyone.

I'm going to read all your posts after I've posted, but as there's rather a lot, it will take a while so thought I'd better post first.

It keeps snowing in bursts here in South Yorkshire, quite heavily then fading away to nothing. It settles for a while then melts away as the sun briefly shows itself, which is good - I hope it doesn't get as thick as a few weeks ago, especially as my car has its mot on Thursday and I don't want to have to dig away snow from the front of the garage before I can set off.

Pleased everything seems ok for you, Mick.

Take care everyone ?.

Good afternoon, Mick, Annie and all, from a cold bit of Berks, with a few softly falling flakes of snow.
I had a bad night last night, disturbed and up 3 times with sickness. DH was fine, but I still don't feel 100% just yet.
Yesterday afternoon, we had a long FaceTime chat with our granddaughter and my lovely, lively great grandson. They had been out for a walk, and come home to warm up with mugs of hot chocolate, squirty cream and marshmallows. Little one had scoffed his and was intent on stealing his mum's.

This morning DH has been trying to tidy up the mess of wires behind the TV and all those other bits of electrical units. What we need is a cabling electrician, oh dear, can I face the upheaval?

Thank you for all the best wishes, and to all others who are feeling 'delicate', sending a gentle hug.
Sorry to hear that Marydoll is having ongoing problems on getting a vaccination. Surely someone who is so vulnerable should be first in line.
I have been following with interest the goings on of SheepandCattle, and the new babies on the farm.
I am going to finish my crocheted Bernie Sanders today.
Take care and stay in the warm.
