Good Morning Wednesday 28th September 2022

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 5° with blue skies above. It feels cold. Mick it sounds like you have things organised. Shazza have a lovely holiday. Best wishes to your dad for his birthday. Cornergran it all sounds very painful! I hope it helps to ease you. Grandmattie I'll see mum today and ask about the Nativity scene pattern. I hadn't forgotten.
Yesterday was enjoyable. Art class was a lot of fun. I finished an apple pastel and began one of an autumn leaf which I'm happy with so far. Dd invited me up at teatime to get another gift. It was an oversized pink fluffy hoodie and a box of breakfast ingredients eg sausages, bacon, eggs, potato scones etc. I wore the hoodie last night while watching tv, and fell asleep as it was so cosy. Her and sil are very good to me.
Today I'll visit mum then my friend for coffee. I shall potter happily about this afternoon and put up autumn decorations. I like to signal the seasons. Have a good day all.

Good morning from sunny but cold Colchester. I am having a cuppa before we set off for Gatwick. We are having to drive because the trains are so untrustworthy of late. Seville and 30° here we come.
Love to all ?x

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s grey and raining again - same as most of yesterday! ☔️
I’ve quite a busy day today, an eye clinic check up this morning, then a class at the gym followed by a cake and bake sale and a good long chat with all the gym ladies. DD2 needs to borrow the car too so I’ll be hopping on the bus to get home later.
Safe journey back to France for your DH Ashcombe
Enjoy your holidays Shazza and wishing your dad a very Happy Birthday
Hope everyone finds something to enjoy today, even just a little thing and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Morning Mick and All.

Glad you are sorted Mick.

Sunny with clouds in South Bucks.

Off to John Lewis to meet a WI friend for coffee, where we are going to discuss speakers for the future.

Good morning all from South Lanarkshire where it’s dry but very cool.

Much more sensible yhave your appointments listed in an email Mick, you’ll know where you are now.

I’ve an early hospital appointment with my nurse and then someone from a company which supplies support belts to help minimise the risk of herniation around the stoma.

Later today I’ll have a video call with HR and my regional manager to discuss my return to work which is planned for Monday. Unfortunately my occupational health assessment resulted in the doctor advising so many adjustments and restrictions that it may not be feasible for the charity to sustain for any length of time. So we’ll see how it goes.

Have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning all from East Yorkshire.

Thank you for all your good wishes yesterday. I had a lovely day especially the time I’m the evening spent with all the family. They really spoilt me and my present was tickets to see Andre Rieu next year. That was a total surprise I was gobsmacked!

I’ll have an easy day today with a bit of pottering in the house.

Photos look lovely Shazza enjoy your day out today.

That seems a better way for your appointments to be in emails Mick then you know where you are.

Take care everyone.

Good morning Mick and everyone from South Hants - haven’t peeped behind the curtains yet!

Quiet day today methinks - Woken up with a horrible headache.

MiL finally got moved to a ward late afternoon yesterday and visiting hours are restricted and reviewed on a daily basis.

Good luck to those with appointments and best wishes to those with worries etc ?? - hang in there.

Hugs and flowers for you all ? x

Morning all. It looks like another damp Norfolk day. After a lovely day yesterday in Holt, I’m not sure what we’re doing today. OH wants to go to the seaside. We’re spoilt for choice here. I’m reminded by some of your posts of my forthcoming hospital appointments and more blood tests! Plus getting my car fixed where I knocked some of the trim off! OH also has hospital appointments looming and telephone appointments. I think it was my sister in Australia who said that getting old isn’t for wimps! Have a lovely day everyone.

Good Morning Mick and everyone from Menorca. We have a lovely day forecast.

Happy belated birthday Grandmadinosaur for yesterday.

Travelling to Menorca was seamless right through. The hotel is really nice. It’s in the centre of Mahon the capital. My parents are in the sister hotel in the resort. They had some heavy rain before we arrived.
We spent a lovely day with them yesterday in Mahon and their resort. We are picking them up this morning and going to S’Algar where it’s flat for my Dad to walk safely. It’s his birthday today he’s 82 I’ve told him today is all about him. I’ve bought him a jokey gift but we are taking him and Mum out for a lovely dinner tonight for his birthday and hers in October.
I’ve put a couple of pics on of Mahon and the view from our lunch restaurant yesterday.

Have a lovely day everyone and special thoughts to those dealing with stress. ??

Good Morning everyone from Severnside. It’s dark and very cloudy. A nice day forecast.

Good idea to get your appointments listed Mick. My calendar is unusually busy lately. I have to take the car for a MOT this morning and have a X-ray myself tomorrow.

I shall probably do some planting this afternoon now that I’ve decided what to put in the one section on my bank.

Have a good day all ?

Morning Mick, morning All from a dark, dry corner of Somerset.

Hospital session went well enough yesterday, I was a bit of a pin cushion from a medial branch block but it seems as if my lower back pain can be eased. Long waiting list for ablation (not thinking about the detail!) but it looks as if I’ll be on it. The pain clinic neurological physio who referred has been a lifesaver. Told to keep moving afterwards we walked around a shopping centre handily placed on our route home. Two unplanned tunics came back with us, oops but I am really pleased with them.

Grocery delivery due early-ish. May then trundle across the bridge as we want to sort the grave of Mr Cs parents before the weather deteriorates. A good clean, replace the silk flowers and it will be done. If our friend is well enough will call and see her after lunch, if not will stop at NT Tredegar House for a stretch (and some cake ) on the way back to the bridge.

Careful with the furniture moving grandmattie, don’t hurt yourself. That’s a sensible move to have appointments emailed mick, good for you. Safe trip for your husband and anyone else on the move today

Take care everyone, have the best day you can. . Hope Wednesday is kind to us all

Good morning from a cold, dark E Kent.
Well done, Michael, for getting an email and a printout of all your hospital appointments.
I’ve been awake since silly o’clock and got up in desperation. I’m trying to finish the quilt for tomorrow, but I’m horribly busy today.
I’ve got my federation WI needlework group most of the day; I shall stop at the supermarket on the way home. Then a friend is coming to help me shift furniture to get the room ready for my friend. I hope I’m getting beds, commodes, etc., tomorrow afternoon, and Jeanne is arriving at some time on Friday.
Hope all is well with everyone. Carpe diem. ?????

Good morning, Mick and all who follow from a dry but chilly Torbay.

Very wise to have appointments confirmed by email when the mail is so unreliable currently.

Thank you all for the interest and lovely comments about my dancing DGD. I think I’m back down to Earth now, not least as I have an early start to enable DH to catch a train from Newton Abbot at 7.30a.m., as he’s returning to France until I have my operation in late October.

Hope you all have a good day. ?????
