Good Morning Easter Monday 18th April 2022

Oh, Marydoll, you’re such a good GN friend to so many, in spite of having such a lot to cope with yourself!

That made me smile.

I just popped in to wish everyone a Happy Easter Monay and best wishes to all who aren't feeling well or have other troubles.

A snooze this afternoon sounds like a good idea Mick - I might join you (virtually) as we've had a busy weekend with friends one day and family yesterday.

Easter wishes to FannyC in the Doghouse, hope you'll be back soon.
Just remember The Galaxy Song by Monty Python!

Peace and good wishes to all

Good morning from a sunny and bright East Midlands. I cannot help but think it is Sunday today. Happy Easter monday!

The term comes from the time, when a number of grans couldn't post and that was a way to discuss them,without actually naming them.

Me too, thank you Marydoll and I hope the nausea improves soon.

Ah, THAT doghouse Marydoll. I didn’t realise that why Fanny had asked you to post. That explains it. Thank you. I don’t need to know more, I was just unaware what ‘the doghouse’ meant!

Thank you.

Fanny asked me to let people know that she can't post for a week. As she reads this thread daily, but doesn't always post, she asked me to send her Easter wishes to all.

Obviously, GNHQ will delete any comments about why. I have already had one deleted as many others have, for commenting on it.

A couple of posters alluded to it on here dusty which is why I asked.

Good morning everyone, lovely morning here , I’ve changed the bed , washing on the line , bucket at the ready to wash the floors
DD is away and my lovely cleaning lady is having a knee replacement this week , I’m not exactly enjoying my tasks , but it is good to have something to do !
I’m having a rest watching the scammers programme! It’s nasty how they target people
I didn’t get to Church yesterday , but continued my on line ?? And I remember all on here at the same time . I don’t know why but I’m getting house bound and don’t like going out on my own now , I think I’m using Covid as an excuse to stay in

Oh I’m glad you asked that Urms, I think I must have missed something

Good morning all, absolutely beautiful sunset last night was right in foretelling a bright and sunny Easter Monday. Not that it is a bank holiday here, everything back to normal which is probably a good thing after sharing both a box of chocolate almonds and chocolate cherries with DH. Maybe the natural fibre will out weigh the fattening effect! Whatever, it’s back to normal today with a visit from the physio at 11.30 am.

Why is Fanny in the doghouse? Surely nothing mean on this thread or have I missed something?

Good morning everyone - not quite so sunny this morning in Middlesex.

We went to Church yesterday morning - it was a lovely service for Easter Sunday. Then spent most of the rest of the day sitting in the garden reading in the sunshine.

I might have to do some ironing today.

Thinking of everyone with worries and wishing everyone the best day they can have.

Good morning everyone from a sunny/cloudy south coast.

Back home after a lovely weekend away bidding farewell to DD’s home as they move on Thursday and will be just ten minutes away. It’s such a relief to know there will be no more long drives on congested motorways just so I can see the family.

A day of gardening on the cards. So much to do it might end up being the whole week!

Hope everyone enjoys the Bank Holiday and sending best wishes to all with worries and health problems.

Good morning all from the Angus coast where the sun is currently peeping through the thick grey and white cloud. Oh for a sunny morning! Nothing to report about my own doings, but DS1 had Big News for us all yesterday - his own DS1 and partner are going to have a baby!! Yes, before this year is out we will all move up a status - and I will become a Great Granny! I can't say I'm too young for that, but I do feel a bit on the young side to have a son who is a Grandpa, a son who is a Great Uncle and a daughter who is a Great Aunt. Goodness, they're only just out of nappies themselves!! Now off I go to tackle the tai chi paperwork today and read all your posts later. I hope this is a good day for all those caring for poorly loved ones or who are suffering themselves, and enjoy the joy of sunshine - for which I am yearning like you wouldn't believe x

Happy Easter. Got back from a lovely week away with DH in Dumfries and Galloway. A lovely part of Scotland. Although the weather wasn’t exactly tropical we had lots of lovely peaceful walks. Castle Douglas has lots of interesting independent shops which is quiet unusual these days.
Thoughts are with those struggling at the moment.

Good morning Mick and everyone from brightish Carlisle. It has rained overnight which is good as it has saved me from watering in the garden. Now it's showing signs of clearing up so I hope to be outside later on.
I've done a spot of housework and there'll be no more of that today. I've a spot of admin to do and plenty of reading to hand plus I am bingeing on Viking Valhalla on Netflix....love my Vikings!
Marydoll, Have you tried travel bands for nausea? I first tried them years ago for Channel crossings but have since found them useful for all sorts of nausea. If you're badly affected they just dampen it down a bit I find but even that's a plus.

Wishing you all the best possible day.

Good morning Mick and everyone. It’s dull and cloudy in my corner of Lancashire, currently 9°C. It rained heavily last night.

My foot behaved itself well enough to let me get a shoe on yesterday and we had a wonderful time with family, I slept like a log last night! Partly from tiredness and partly from the drugs.

It was lovely catching up on the GM thread last night and reading much good news and family joy.

Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Oops.

Great news about your grandsons Bellasnana and love those photos.

Sorry for your loss Pantglas, sounds like your aunt was well loved and will be much missed.

Safe journey Ashcombe.

Grandmadinosaur I do the same with trousers, I used to have to take them up all the time! Midi dresses become maxi dresses, very handy.

Waving to FannyC in the doghouse ??.

Hope the little one is alright Dragonfly.

Hope all our Covid warriors are not feeling too poorly and -ve tests are not too far off.

Thinking of all our grans going through difficult times. Wishing everyone the best day possible

Good morning from sunny Liverpool where I have had a lovely few days with my lovely DD and DSiL and precious DGD. I have been looked after and my needs considered and it has been lovely. Back home today refreshed invigorated.

Yesterday’s treat was a visit to Mrs Gaskell’s house in Manchester, highly recommended to all fans of that unde-rated author. Like Jane Austen she wrote surrounded by family life - in her case four daughters. Don’t know how she managed it.

Thinking of all our “gang” dealing with illness and anxiety.

Good morning from the NE where it is mild with weak sunshine.
DD and SIL came yesterday afternoon and we had our coffee in the garden.
We cooked dinner together and enjoyed a leisurely dinner with a nice red wine.
DD is trying to arrange her return to her home in Brussels as SIL is on the mend now. Last time she returned there was a problem with mice because the cats had been fostered out.
I am having a quiet day on my own, will finish my book and watch some TV.
Thoughts are with poorly people and those caring for them.

Good morning from an overcast W Kent. Happy day yesterday with DD2 and family. Very lively young grandson, never still, we felt exhausted watching him. Quieter day today, my brother is off home so a bit of washing will need to go in.
Best wishes to all of you struggling along.

Good morning from a full w/York's .We had a lovely day at Dds yesterday .Your poor grandson Dragonfly hope he is soon sorted .Kitty hope your daughter is feeling better you are having a trying time .Granmattie it must be very lonely . Have a good day everyone.

Morning from DD’s where we had a lovely day yesterday.SiL’s mum was here too and it was great to see her in improved health. She also has Alzheimer’s but is content and coping with huge family support, her children are doing her proud.

What a touching photo Bellasnana, great nursing,

Dragonfly I hope your little grandson gets sorted out at the specialist hospital, what a horrible thing to happen.

?*Marydoll*, I hope nausea subsides today.

I hope your family visit helps grandMattie

baubles, your work sounds a bit overwhelming just now, take care.

Wishing everyone a good day???
