Good morning from a sunny Dunblane. Blue skies but a biting cold wind! Had a visit to SiL for coffee yesterday morning first time visiting her at her flat for ages was very enjoyable. In the afternoon a drive with DH to Callander which is just about 25minutes away. Lovely walk when we were there. We are lucky to live in a beautiful part of Scotland.

GD2 comes here on Wednesdays after school so looking forward to that. May do some baking with her. cupcake

A late good morning from a dismal Durham, where we've already had rain, hale and snow and the sky is still heavy and grey. I haven't posted for a while, as too much 'mundanity' going on here, but I've read posts and send my best wishes to GM, Chrissielou and anyone else feeling below par or looking after sick and worried family. It's not easy, as I well know.
I've just dropped DD2, her DH and DGS1 off at the airport for a flight to New York. I think they are mad, but I've kept that to myself! It took 2 cars to get them to the airport as they had so much stuff. I'll be on tenterhooks awaiting a text tonight that they've all arrived safely and the Hotel room is as promised. As usual, I have their dogs to look after while they're gone, so coat on now and off for a walk while there's a break in the weather.
Have a good day.

Good morning Mick and all his followers! Not a brilliant day here and the forecast is for worse weather. It’s a day for ironing and housework I think. I have to nip up to church to learn what to clean, where the vacuum is etc as I am now on the rota. Most important is what is the knack to opening the door!
Chris3 I know exactly what you mean about the sewing. I have lots of projects which have not passed the planning stage!
Best wishes to everyone with worries and I hope the day is kind to us all.

it is a horrible grey wet very cold day here. Had to go out and got freezing cold and couldnt get warm. So have done what was necessary but just having a problem getting warm still. So the halo is shining a little as I have managed to throw yet more rubbish out and do a little bit of sorting and trying to go through telephone book and add some new numbers and cross out old ones. Now the numbers are so long and have no rhyme or reason to them, I cant remember them and have to keep checking them!! Hoping the promised snow or frost doesnt happen as there is a lovely magnolia nearby which looks very beautiful but if it is frosty will get ruined and the tree is too tall to put a cover over it. I used to have a a magnolia stellata which is a small tree/shrub and so with this forecast I used to go and throw some netting over it to keep the frost off. fingers crossed it survives. the daffodils are looking lovely so hopefully we shall get back to some better weather soon. Hope you all have a good evening
