Good Morning Thursday 13th October 2022

As Gala says, it’s misty here in Sefton as I bid you good morning.
Glad all is going well Mick.
Membrillo is my favourite grandMattie. Your positive outlook, many talents and constant industry leave me in awe.
Enjoy Thursday.

Good morning from West York's it's a chilly one ,jabs for us this morning then shopping. Hope your colonoscopy goes ok llfll.Thinking of those with worries.

Good morning.
At home this morning. I must make a chocolate sponge and prepare batter for Toad in the hole.
DGSs 2 &3 are here for dinner this evening and overnight as Mummy and Daddy have to go to London. Will have youngest from midday and do school collection. Then get him to school in the morning.
MIL will be here today as well. I’ll need a quiet day tomorrow !
I’ve not yet read through the thread but hope the day goes well for all.

Good morning all and after lots of beautiful days, I think we’re in for a drizzly one.

Taking DD for her scan this morning and have everything crossed that things are going well ! I will drop her off as it will be a long session, have a quick lunch with my old work friends and pick her up when she calls me.

I have to pick DGD up from school and have her overnight. She can’t be with her mum as Dd has to have a dye injected before the PET scan and sit in a room on her own for half an hour. Radioactive!

GM a bitter/sweet day for you. Happy memories ?.

Loupylou I love a harp. I always wanted to learn. Do you play yourself?

Hope all poorlies are feeling better today.
Sad times for some grans. ?.

Love to all?

* No plans

Good morning from East Yorkshire. I woke up with the alarm then slept for another hour.

Yesterday I caught up with housework in the morning. I also made a delicious soup and in the afternoon went to a matinee performance at a local theatre. It was good in parts but got a little lost among the way. I read a couple of reviews after the event and they had felt the same as myself about it.

I plans today except GS here after school. I’d like to go to a local PYO who have a twilight pumpkin picking and snacks like hot dogs etc. DH isn’t too keen as he’s feeling a little under the weather this week.

? for GM Baubles and anyone else who needs them.

Good luck all with medical doings today.

baubles - intend to read healing for relative!

Morning all

Pleased things are going smoothly for you Mick

A poignant day grandMattie

Hope your procedure goes to plan ladyleftfieldlover

I am another early waker today, I have been wide awake since 5am, I shall be fading by lunchtime. DH is on a mission with the council planning department so he is off out. I am not sure what I shall do, a trip to either Lakeside of Bluewater to get some ideas for Christmas Gifts along with Coffee and Cake seems rather appealing.

(((Hugs))) to our good morning friends in need, particularly dear Baggs ?‍♀️?

Morning all from a rather dull S Yorks.

Today is a little stretch out at the gym and a first meeting of a patients group - coffee speaker and natter group, post covid, see if it suits.

Hope the last day of prep goes well Mick.

I hope the funeral is a good, “goodbye”, Greyduster

May jam making, family meet ups and birthdays, path laying, techie fixings, de-sludged days and wait and see days all go well. Four is a lovely age! Youngest DS is 4 so have a good day with WW.

Thank you for matt, Urmstongran

baubles wishing the very best for relative Andes, I think this should be a wake up call for help.

Good morning all from a cold Glasgow, where its only 5°C.

GM, a sad day for you. ?
If you uninstall your printer and reinstall it, that may work. Go to settings, devices, click on your printer name, then reverse the process, using the add a printer section.
You will also probably need your WiFi password if your friend looks at it.
In fact, I had to do that yesterday, when my printer refused to scan. Its been playing silly beggars for weeks.?

Yesterday I adapted the Dorset apple cake recipie, given to me by a gransnetter, using windfall pears from the garden and ginger, instead of cinnamon. I just wanted to let her know, it was delicious, according to DH. Not my thing at all, so I wouldn't know. ?

I have a bit of admin work to do at church for the parish census, apart from that nothing. I have an RA flare up, with high pain levels at the moment, so it's difficult to concentrate and focus on anything. Thank goodness I have a rheumatology appointment tomorrow, which has been already been cancelled twice.?

Good luck for today, Llfl, Mick and any others, who have appointments.
Hoping that Miss Oops is making good progress and you feel better as the day goes on, Kitty.
A warm welcome also to EmmaMazarella

So much sadness among our group at the moment, I shall keep you all in my prayers.

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 5° and positively chilly. My windows have condensation on them due to poor double glazing. There are blue skies though. Grandmattie ?.
Yesterday went well. Lots of socialising was done. Today will be a very quiet day so I can recharge my batteries. Some pottering is required. Have a good day all

Good morning all. Dry, overcast & a bit misty this morning here in Sefton.

Zumba Fitness then some food shopping this morning. No other plans for today. There is always garden tidying, sewing, washing to sort & general household chores (yawn ?) to do. I won't get bored.

Have the best day you can. ((❤️))

Good morning everyone from a grey and misty Northampton. Just wondering whether to put the washing machine on, as I don't think anything will dry in this weather.

Early delivery from Sainsbury's this morning, they have just emailed to say they have everything I ordered, a rare occurrence! Then out for dance classes after lunch; haven't been for three weeks so shall have a lot of catching up to do.

Had an enjoyable afternoon at the well-being cafe yesterday, lots of people to chat to, and got a lot of my knitting done. Got the grass cut when I got home, and started going round the edges with the half-moon spade.

A poignant day for you, grandMattie; my dear DH died a year after our 45th, and it was sad when we reached what would have been our Golden and he wasn't there.

Hope all today's plans go well and for those who have none, hope some serendipity comes along!

Best wishes today for your colonoscopy Ladyleftfieldlover. ?

Good Morning to you Emma ?

Baubles really hoping your relative gets the help they need now. Poor love it’s heartbreaking.
Our good friends had this happen to them unfortunately it was a different outcome. ?

Happy birthday Wolfie

Good morning all from cloudy Harrogate
Glad you are getting sorted Mick
GrandMattie
Good luck with your procedure Ladyleftfieldlover
Yesterday finally had my COVID jab. That was a palaver, 1st standing in a Queue for 20 mins, for a seat to sit on while waiting for another 20 mins. Still haven’t managed to get an appointment for a flu vac.
Today it’s Sainsburies delivery day then I’ve got someone coming to fix my tumble dryer and washing machine, it could be times up for my WM it’s over 12 years old. In the evening I’m zooming my sisters.
Have the best day possible folks

Very misty this morning, suspect my path laying team will not be arriving by 8.00 as threatened/planned. Better get up though just in case. Nothing else planned apart from providing tea but various admin tasks await. Need some of gMattie’s positive energy!

Good Morning from what was a misty Severnside. Mostly gone now.

Mattie ?
Some housework for me this morning, mainly the dining room. I’ll probably potter after and then I’ve a blood test this afternoon.

Have a good day everyone ?

Good morning all from South Lanarkshire where there’s a little light frost on the car roof.

My relative is conscious and it appears that there is no damage to the brain, thank God. They have been struggling with depression for some time with little or no medical support. Hopefully they will now get the help they need.

gM ?

We are off to DS’s later, I’m looking forward to seeing the little ones.

Have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning from rainy Colchester. It feels milder than yesterday though.
DH woke me at stupid o'clock when he went fishing. I will be using the empty to give the house a clean and change the bed. The tumble dryer and dehumidifier will be on....such a necessary extravagance. I'm so grateful that we can afford it and worry for those who can't.
Thinking of all your joys and sadnesses.
Love to all ? x

Good morning everyone from Inverness where it’s just getting light. Yesterday was a lovely mild autumn day but the forecast is much colder today
gMattie ?
I’ve nothing planned today after a busy few days so I’m going to catch up on the housework and get outside into the garden if I can
Hoping all goes well today llfl
Hope everyone finds something to enjoy today and take care all whatever the day brings ?

Good luck ladylfl. My experience is the preparation is the most uncomfortable part.

A dry windless day today, a bit of sun ahead. It is going to be another evolving day for me. I did clean my sewing machines yesterday and my sewing room is tidied. Veg box arriving soon and fridge is ready

I hope you all have a day that is a good as it could be

X posts kitty I cannot believe Wolfie is FOUR now‼️ ???

Morning all from a dark West Oxfordshire. Gosh, the laxative powder I was given in preparation for my colonoscopy was strong stuff! To put it mildly. My taxi arrives at 8.45 an the procedure is at 10 am. Eek. I am hoping that OH can pick me up early afternoon.
