Good Morning Friday

Good morning all from a sunny Lancashire. Fluffy white clouds floating around in the glorious blue sky, no rain clouds at the moment. Not much planned for today as I had a broken sleep thanks to a dicey tum, usual physio and some sewing.

A small triumph yesterday after doing my exercises. The final exercises are floor exercises and I always try to get to my feet unaided and unsupported afterwards. I usually end up having to hold on to something, but yesterday I managed without. I was so pleased, it just shows it pays to keep trying. I’ll be climbing over stiles in no time once I can go walking again.

Have a good day all.

Morning all,

The sun is trying to break through now after a grey start in South Yorkshire. It is still chilly though.

Not a lot on the agenda today, but looking forward to a zoom chat with friends later.

grandMattie it looks as if my suggestion that you will be getting orders will take off with lots of GM's on your books ?.

Hope you all have a good day. Take care.

Good morning all from a bright and sunny Angus coast. The wind is still doing what wind does, but in a gentler fashion and out of the west.
Delighted that your DH in France is at last getting his first jab, Ash, and that you also have plans for a family visit and stay over your birthday. It's lovely to have something on the calendar to look forward to, isn't it
I too remember the saga of your leaking roof Kitty. You must be so delighted that that's sorted at last.
Lots of things to do here today, including a little pop down into the town, but nothing sorted out in my mind yet as to a method of attack. A second coffee is called for I think.
Have a good day all. ☀️???

Maple, no pms yet. You peeps must be shy or worried about the expense! ?

Good morning Mick and all from a sunny Lancashire northwest coast.
Yes Mick, it might be chilly sitting outside with a drink. Not sure if I fancy it. I have become too comfortable (if bored and unsociable) since lockdown to enjoy that.
Well the scaffolding has been left, pretty, not, but won’t be long I expect.
Off to the post office to send a wee parcel to my confused brother in law in a nursing home in the South. Not the happiest part of his life sadly.
After housework etc yesterday, thought I would have a rest and settled down with Alexa and an order to play Elgar and Vaughan Williams. Rather than restful, found myself in tears. Beautiful music, but so emotional.
Hugs to all with worries, have a nice day everyone.

Waiting for the visiting chiropodist before deciding what the day might hold. Meanwhile the first load of washing is out and the second doing as I may as well take advantage of the bright blowy morning.

So sorry Marydoll is still feeling grim, delighted by the tales from the farm, and looking forward to hearing of Kitty spending her day admiring her newly painted hall - at long last!

Good morning from West Sussex where the sun is shining and the clouds are stretched out and feathery at the edges. My Ladybird book of The Weather would have told me what kind they are - maybe cirrus?

Blossoming well done with your exercises ?.

I have just made coffee to take to DH at allotment so must get a move on. Hope for a good day for all especially those with pain and other miseries ?

EV your comments about the vax and warfarin got me thinking. Before my first jab I was asked if I take a blood thinner - I take aspirin.
This led me to the Essex University Partnership NHS website which talked in detail about the yellow book, INR and last test result level when considering having the vax. I’m sure you know this already but just in case...

Lovely sunny morning here up in Glasgow. Think I might go for a walk later on.
Had my hair cut this week . Feels so much better. I looked like a shaggy dog before I got it cut.
Making pizza for dinner. Hubby likes my homemade pizza.

Morning from sunny but cold Kent! Marydoll sounds like you need to take it easy for a wee while! It would be a shame if Dollie was to visit you in bed or worse the hospital ( if that’s even allowed in Scotland).
I’ve been under the weather for the last ten days with my sixth episode of cystitis in a year. Fair knocks the stuffing out of me - our loo is upstairs so I’m getting plenty exercise! Today things are much improved.
Not doing much else but reading, Times xword and longing to get into the garden. Saw a huge hedgehog at our bird feeder last night, might put out some cat food tonight.
Got hairdresser on Tuesday- first time since August. Haven’t had hair this long since school!
Get to use my bus pass ( only the second time!) I got it last July as I have Ménière’s disease which got worse after 35 years of no disability . I never learnt to drive partly for that reason.
Im off to listen to Limerick radio - my sister is on their coffee time chat slot. I think they like her Scottish accent!
Have a good day everyone!

Good Morning from a mildish Cornwall. Some showers are expected.
I'm glad Mark (gardener) got the raised beds dug out the other week as the clay soil he dug out is now solid! More weeding today. I've decided to lift the plants from the worst areas. Pick the grass out of them and replace. Fortunately the rockery soil isn't clay.

Gagagran - sorry about the cramp and the leap out of bed. A few have suggested soap placed nearby. I've suggested this to MrM. There are not many nights he doesn't get cramp. He's shaking his head at me. I think I'll slip a bar underneath the mattress. Sounds you're like me in cutting hair. I do MrM's masses of hair, his beard, eyebrows and ears.

GrandMattie Just read your second post. I'm sure you will get orders. Your work is beautiful.

Sara53 Not sure if you have read my post yesterday about your dentist visit. Reading today's it does look like I had exactly the same two appointments. She froze a small section of gum at a time. It was a long process but two years on, my gums are so improved. My gums took about 24 hours to settle down afterwards. I'll be thinking of you next month.

Sheep Your day is over flowing. Love the photo of Nobby and admirers.

Party4 Useless at painting but I always wondered if there was a craft I could do and enjoy. About 15 years ago, instead of a holiday abroad I booked 6 different craft courses. Some were one day others were weekends. Two of them I really enjoyed and continued with them. I've been watching Grayson's Art Club that was filmed during the lockdowns. It was amazing the variety of crafts he found people doing. I do hope you find something to spark your interest.

GrandmaFrench Brave of everyone to dodge the birds.

EllanVannin. I love bird watching too. Best place I now have is from my hammock which is positioned close to the tree where all the feeders hang. Trouble is I can also see the rockery that needs weeding. Hope all goes well with the 2nd vaccination if you decide to have it.

Marydoll Hope today is a better day.

Blossoming. A huge, massive well done with the exercise.

Have a safe, happy Friday everyone.
