Good Morning Easter Sunday

Happy Easter everyone, from a bright, potentially sunny, Nottinghamshire.
I can feel the happiness coming through your post, sheep, I hope the day is as wonderful as you are hoping. Your granddaughter sounds such fun. I’m sure she will sort out Popeye with her doctor skills!
We had a lovely garden visit from our son and his wife yesterday, with unexpected sunshine helping us out. In the past week we have seen all four of our children and all four of our grandchildren, we are so lucky.
A big Easter ? for you all, and for those separated from loved ones, ?? it won’t be long now until you can see them again.

Happy Easter Everyone!?️
Lovely, joyful post Sheep, your last few words really made me smile! ?

Happy Easter to everyone. I hope you have a good day and enjoy any family visits or calls you may have. Im serving a traditional leg of lamb with the usual veg and it has to be Yorkshire pudding even though its not traditional. Its very misty here in canal land but we hope it will brighten later for lunch on the patio.

Happy Easter to you all! I only had time to skim through yesterday’s posts but I’m sending you all best wishes, especially those with difficulties or sadness.
Today is a Red Letter Day for me......... my eldest son, lovely DiL and my wonderful, funny 3 year old GD are coming for the day! ? I haven’t seen them since August due to lockdown and all Christmas plans being cancelled so I’m terribly excited! Little GD is bringing her doctor’s kit with her in order to check over any sick lambs so Popeye will be receiving top notch veterinary care! GD loves using her doctors bag to check over her cuddly toys are after examining each one normally declares that they’re ‘probably ok’!! I hope Popeye receives this ringing endorsement! I shan’t ask her to check out Bogdon the bull though! I’ve got the mini Easter eggs to hide in the garden this morning before they arrive and my lovely friend has made me a veggie chilli to serve up at lunch time ( we are all veggies apart from my DH) as she knows I’m no cook! My DiL has just started her nurse training so I’m looking forward to hearing all about that and my son and I love having a good political debate so I think it’s going to be a lovely day !?. Son told me last night how excited little GD is that she can come today - apparently, when she’s asked who her favourite person is in the whole world, she still says ‘Nana Sheep’ ? ?. She’s definitely one of my most favourite people in the whole world too! Sorry.... I’m rabbiting on but I’m SO EXCITED!! ???

He is risen. Happy Easter ? to everyone!
Good morning from a grey, not quite drizzling E Kent. It is till cold, still grey, we might get some sun ☀️ tomorrow.
It is interesting how Covid has concentrated people’s minds, Ash, re. health and relationships, contact and lack of it. I hope that both health and seeing your husband are resolved.
Sheep, hope poor Popeye gets better soon - what else could you call him/her? And Bogdon? Have you any comeback from the vendor? Can you borrow a bull? Not have one will cause a lot of problems, won’t it?
Virtual church again today. I won’t go to church until we don’t wear masks. The last time we went, the atmosphere of terror and hostility as though we were murderers if we presumed gong 1 inch inside the 6ft distance, was absolutely horrible. I can’t pray if I’m feeling angry and hurt.
Lovely roast lamb for dinner tonight. For those who have forgotten, it is the Passover lamb, when the Jews were told to put a cross of blood on their doors so the angel of death would “pass over” their firstborn sons. Lesson over.
Hope you have sunshine ☀️ in your lives today, physically and metaphorically . May you find a ?or ??. ??❤️

A Happy Easter Day to you Mick and all. A most beautiful pink streaked sunrise here on our corner of the South Welsh coast. A beautiful sunny day yesterday too, though the wind was keen, we went for a walk with the puppy avoiding the many visitors to our seaside town.
Mr Lins is going to finish teak oiling the garden furniture today, not sure what I'm going to do except enjoy the sunshine while it lasts.
Hope those meeting up with family have a lovely day.
Pork and leek sausages with onion gravy on the menu here.
Stay safe everyone. Hope Cherry and Mary are feeling better and Happy Easter to all our missing friends.

Good morning from north Surrey where we are promised sunshine but another cold day.
I enjoyed watching the service from Kings College, Cambridge on TV yesterday.
Lovely to see travelsafar and Georgesgran back with us and feeling up to posting yesterday
Goodness Sheep there is never a dull moment in your life, I do hope Popeye recovers from his incident and that you can claim recompense for Bogdon if he doesn’t pick up.
I am working this afternoon so shall have a quiet morning dog walking and some Pilates stretching.
Happy Easter Day to all ???

A very Happy Easter from a calm grey Morecambe Bay where it is grey and calm and the dawn chorus is in full voice. Just off to early outdoor church so will catch up later. Take care and stay safe everyone ?

Good morning Mick and all to follow. It looks pretty grey outside, no idea what is forecast in Glasgow but I don’t think we are in for such a welcomed sunny day like yesterday.

No specific plan as per usual but I’m sure something will turn up to keep me occupied. Good news from DD1, 45, she has received an appointment for her vaccination on 8th April. ?

Hope everyone manages to have a relaxing trouble free Sunday.

A joyful Eastertide to one and all from a peaceful, chilly Torbay. It’s a great shame that the weather isn’t conducive to being outside for long when some are meeting up in the (very!) fresh air! I liked this picture of the first Easter morning and it reminds me of the Easter hymn, “You're Alive” by Graham Kendrick, especially verse two:-

Some good photos yesterday: a stunning sunset from Gelisajams and the flamingos were fun, Jaxjacky! And a poignant memory of your happy wedding day, BlueSapphire. You both look as if you are caught up in the happiness of the moment. ?

It’s so encouraging to read of Mr.Gaga’s daily progress and that you’re making the most of his increasing energy levels. I really think you should use your daily contributions as the basis for a book, sheepandcattle, as you have something interesting happening daily! I’m sorry Bogdon isn’t well but hope Popeye will thrive.

As ever, I am humbled by the many kind and supportive comments about my long distance marital arrangements. Seven years ago, when we first planned this arrangement we envisaged health issues arising, which they have in both cases when we’ve been there for the other. As Taichinan observed, we couldn’t have imagined the havoc wreaked by Covid. Nevertheless, we are thankful to have stayed well and hold on to the dream of this weirdest of times ending eventually.

Many of you have suffered illness, loss and other serious concerns and I hope the hopefulness of the Easter message brings peace and happiness. ?✝️?
