Good Morning Sunday 8th January 2023

It's a bright morning here in West York's ,I am going to tackle a short walk to see if hip and back is improving ,enjoy your last day Shazza.
Gm hope return to church is ok .Welcome to .liberty

Good morning from a wet Oxfordshire, the moon was so bright at 3.30 that I thought we would have a frost, that also explains why I am so late getting up this morning, I just couldn’t get to sleep.
Another cupboard to sort today, I did one yesterday and had some stuff left out that I couldn’t get back in!
My packing skills aren’t what they used to be.
Welcome Liberty
Marydoll hope you feel better soon.
GM I hope Church went well.
Have a good day everyone, hugs for those who are worried, ill or stressed.

Good morning everyone from a cloudy Northampton, showers forecast this afternoon, so shall be staying put.

Spent yesterday afternoon taking down the Christmas tree and all the other decorations; all now packed into their boxes and bags and waiting to go out to the garage, or upstairs. Looks very bare, but I have kept the fairy lights up on the mantle-piece, so still looks pretty. Dusted empty shelves and surfaces as I went along.

Watched the remaining two episodes of 'Stonehouse' last night, which I found very amusing but sad - what a deluded man.... I have plenty of recorded programmes to watch today after I have caught up with the newspapers.

A 'Cook' stroganoff for dinner tonight, will just do some rice and veg to go with it, and have a nice glass of red wine.

Wishing all a pleasant Sunday - and a warm welcome to Liberty.

Just got a phone call from my stepfather. He’d had another nosebleed last night between 10pm and midnight. He said it took some stopping. I asked him how he was feeling. “Weary. And a bit of a nuisance really”. I said “Ach, you can just cut that thinking right out mister. It’s what family’s do.” We are grateful an ENT specialist is seeing him tomorrow morning though. I’d been hoping the nasal cream had worked, but it seems not.

Hope tomorrow goes well Urms it’s a worrying time for you all, but a prompt appointment is good.

Oh Urms so sorry to hear about your SF. I know what you mean about families. I spent more time in hospitals with my parents in their last years than I like to think about.
I do hope they can offer a solution tomorrow.

Urms, I had this problem and eventually my nose had to be cauterised. Thankfully, it did the trick! I don't know if that is st a procedure, which is still done.

Oh Urms. That must be so disappointing for your stepfather after doing so well. Hopefully the hospital will sort him out tomorrow. I am reminded of when my late mother first started being ill. I dreaded the telephone ringing at home or in my office. All I could do was jump in my car and drive to Reading to whichever hospital they had taken her. My stepfather was around but my brother and sister both live in Australia so I was always the designated sibling!

Urms so sorry to hear about your stepfather let's hope tomorrow's appointment will get him sorted. DH had to have his nose cauterised he was in hospital about 4 days.

Good Morning everyone from Madeira. I am sitting on the balcony because I shot out of bed after hearing the unmistakable buzzing of a mosquito.
Thankyou for all your birthday wishes yesterday. It was a lovely day. We all stayed at the hotel and had a swim and sat in the jacuzzi together. We played mini golf and French boules. The hotel left a bottle of cava and another guest a bottle of red wine so we all sat on my sister’s large balcony and played Uno cards which got very silly. Dinner last night was a beautiful Indian meal.

Today it’s our last full day so I’m not sure what we all fancy doing. The lads are all playing tennis this morning for an hour.

Have a lovely Sunday everyone full of family and friend gatherings and delicious Sunday lunches. Thoughts to those ill or worried🌻🌻

Pics are of the gorgeous Funchal Christmas lights.

Happy belated birthday to another Capricorn. I didn’t read yesterday’s posts.
Madeira is one of our favourite places, so thanks for the photos.

Sorry to hear of your stepfather's setback Urmstongran, so disappointing for him and yourselves.
Hopefully he'll receive a plan of action from tomorrow's hospital appointment.

Good morning Mick and all from a rainy northwest coast.
Quiet day again today, will wash my hair and possibly go to a local folk club for the first time tonight and see if I enjoy it. I know a couple of people there.
Also have to go through some songs suggested by the band to see if the keys are right. I’m finding one member a pain, bossy and controlling, all with a fixed smile. There always seems to be one in a group of people who is the fly in the ointment, or maybe I’m easily irritated…
Thoughts to grandmattie and anyone with worries.
Will read through later.

I did it! I went to the 1030 service, arrived on the dot, left as soon as the blessing was said. Was in tears for most of the service. Next week will be better…

A late good morning from Glasgow. I woke at 6.30 and promptly fell asleep again. Patches of blue sky, sunny and breezy is a welcome change to constant rain.

Such a worrying time for you Urms. I wish your DSF well and hopefully whatever treatment is decided does the trick.
A gentle day ahead for you Marydoll and allow your rock to do what he will see as his job of caring for you.
kitty, my friend’s hair grew back curly too after chemo. I was so envious as mine is polker straight.
A warm welcome Liberty

Some time pottering in the garden at last will keep me occupied for a good while today.

Best wishes to all for a good day.
