Good Morning Sunday 20th March 2022

Good Morning from the Scottish Borders. A nip in the air but promising to be another very warm day.
What a shock Mick. Will you have a follow up now at the hospital?
I had lovely videos of DGC sent to me yesterday. It's great to see that they are all doing well but I wish I saw them more often.
Covid is very much still around and the memorial service for a friend this week has been postponed leaving us all bewildered! some of us already are
I am glad you are feeling better Ash. I hope MrUrms is OK. Sending very good wishes to grandMattie to Maw to Marydoll and to all who need a boost booster right now.

good morning from sunny W Kent. Quiet day today probably a walk later on and have some books to deliver to DD who is down with the covid.
So sorry to hear what happened Mick hope you get to see someone soon.
Very best wishes to all.

Good morning from a sunny NE.
The family said the seafront was bracing yesterday, they were chilled and ready for tea and cakes when they got here.
SIL had his staples out yesterday, he says he is OK but has loss of sensation around the operation site.
DD is extremely tired and stressed with the extra work and had to get insurance to drive her DH's car so she can drive him to appointments. She only managed three days at work in Belgium before she had to return to the UK.
A quiet day for me after a houseful yesterday, I went straight to bed when they went home.
Thoughts are with poorly people and carers.

Good morning from a bright, though still chilly, South Yorkshire.

Hope you’re feeling a bit better today, Mick after your dizzy spell and admission to hospital. Take it easy today, and ring your surgery in the morning.

A potter in the garden later for me, I think. There are some weeds that require my attention.

Take care everyone.

Good morning Mick and everyone from sunny but still nippy Carlisle. I have just returned from a walk and felt gloves would have been welcome.
Not a pleasant experience Mick! This used to happen to my father who had atrial fibrillation. So do chase those medics and make sure they are organising heart checks for you.
You do have a lot of us older ladies on your case at times, don't you ?!
Now I'm going to spend some of my time sitting by my sunny window with a coffee and the papers though reading the latter will probably undo the good done by the walk. Later, probably in the garden digging another hole and unearthing more stones. I may have to contemplate constructing a rockery.
You reminded me on Friday that a headache could mean covid Grandmabatty. I realise that that thought doesn't usually occur to me though it probably should especially as it seems to be getting rampant again at the moment. I'm very prone to headaches for various reasons.
I really hope you and your DH have a better day grandMattie
There seems to be a lot of poorly folk around at the moment and I wish you and yours better days.

As long as you are feeling better Ekwa. ? My best friend has tested positive yesterday and is feeling very poorly.

Good morning from a sunny west/York's a quiet day for us after family get together yesterday ,it was lovely to see cousins enjoying being together which doesn't happen often enough.I got some lovely gifts you feel guilty when you see what's happening in the world at the moment .Hope all feeling under the weather soon improve .

Morning from the edge of S Lanarkshire, lovely day again as I head home. Spent yesterday with a dear friend who has just messaged me to say she woke up during the night with a sore throat and has tested positive this morning, oh dear.
Testing daily this week for me now with fingers crossed?Will have to check if my babysitting skills will still be required.

I hope you get attention soon Mick, that was a horrible experience, take care.

Happy holiday baubles, I hope everything goes to plan and that the sun shines for you.

Wishing a good day to all, ?to grandMattie???

Good morning all, from a chilly damp Algarve. The forecast is for rain all day but although it was thundering on the skylight earlier it seems to have stopped at the moment. Michael I hope your meds are soon sorted out and am glad that you have a spare pair of glasses. It’s so disorienting to feel unbalanced at all.
As usual I’ve only read the first couple of posts and will catch up with you all later.

A late Good Morning from another sunny day in N.,Cambs.,

May I add my thoughts for you, Mick, do have a restful day & make sure you have food/meals regularly, even if they are simple, easy ones. Take Care.

for all who need them, thinking of all with extra burdens to carry.

Good morning Mick and everyone. It’s a lovely sunny day in my corner of Lancashire though a chill wind, currently 10°C.

We were up relatively early This morning, Sunday is usually a lie in. The rotary dryer is full, taking advantage of sun and wind. I love line dried laundry . Mr. B finished the sparrow mansion nest box he was building yesterday and has fixed it to the balcony railings so I can watch the birds. I hope the sparrows like it. He has quite a talent for woodwork and I make sure to praise any creations. Bacon rolls for brunch in a little while. Physio exercises later, I need to put in some hard work on my core and my balance if I want to be fit for some walks now Spring is here.

So sorry to hear about your experience yesterday Mick. I hope it’s just a change in your meds that’s needed. Have a restful day today.

Thinking of you Grandmattie, so much woe in your life to cope with x

Hope your DH feels better today Urmstongran and it isn’t Covid. I think a test is in order.

Safe journey baubles

I must post this now as I can hear the bacon (and Mr.B!) reaching critical mass in the kitchen. I’ll read the rest of your posts later.

Whatever you’re doing I hope you all have a good day and find a random flamingo or two ??

Hello everyone! Having a very late and lazy start today. Son1 has gone for a walk and I'm in recovery from our delightful day yesterday. Thought I was pretty active and able but was somewhat tested by our various goings on. Just as well be only has one birthday a year! My sympathetic thoughts are with those currently going through the mill and I'll happily celebrate with those who are on a high. ??

Good afternoon from a lovely sunny Dunblane. What a difference the sun makes. It is our son’s 43rd birthday today how did that happen! It was snowing when he was born!
Best wishes to all who are struggling.

Hello everyone and in particular Mick who I hope is feeling ok.

I am fairly new to Gransnet and very new to this forum and thread. I have been reading it for about a week now and love the general chit chat that goes on.

I live in Cheshire and took early retirement from the NHS last year ( covid just about finished me off!) . I live on my own with my cat Katy and have a son who lives in London with his wife and my gorgeous grandson who is nearly 2 . I don’t get to see the, as often as I would like but we speak and FaceTime so that’s good.

I look forward to reading all about your daily activities - today I have been back to Specsavers again to try and get my new varifocals right - third time lucky and then have enjoyed digging in my back garden and making the most of the lovely weather.

Hope you have all had a good day
