Good Morning Thursday 18th January 2024

Happy birthday to MrKalu🎂

Good morning Mick and all from a -2°C Sunnyside northwest coast.
Not much to report, I’m off into the city later for a meal with a friend and then a symphony concert, but still have my hibernating mood on me..

Condolences grandmattie thoughts to Susan and hope things get sorted Ash
Thoughts to all with worries 🌺

My condolences to you grandMattie. No more suffering for your sister. 💐

Wishing a Happy Birthday to MrKalu 🎂

Good morning Mick and all from sunny Lancashire, currently -4°C.

Still very icy outside so don’t think we’ll be going for a walk today. The frost looks beautiful sparkling in the sunshine but I can’t risk a fall. At the moment I’m getting in some exercise walking up and down stairs in addition to usual core and balance exercises.

I heard from the eye centre yesterday, I am booked in for a second Botox jab on 21st February. The first one has been so effective, the eye is now only drifting off when it’s tired. I will always struggle in bright sunlight due to previous retinal damage and there’s nothing I can do about that. I would find driving impossible and I am glad I took the decision to let my licence lapse.

It’s good to hear you sounding so positive Mick after your health problems. I love Motown and Atlantic soul classics.

So sorry to read your sad news GrandMattie .

Your jumper sounds lovely*Karmalady*. I love natural yarns.

Safe travels Grammaretto your trip sounds fabulous.

I’m rather envious Bellasnana although I’m a Northerner at heart and find the Arctic more appealing than the Mediterranean!

Happy Birthday to your DH Kalu, hope he enjoys his day.

Thinking of all with worries, Baggs is always in my heart.

Good morning from a bright, sunny but very cold Dunblane. It is reading -7C here at the moment. We were going to go out for a morning coffee to M&S but will have to wait till the car thaws it is frozen solid! Had a visit to the hairdresser yesterday for a much needed cut and shampoo was lovely and warm in there. I have been doing very little outdoors this last week as I have developed a fear of slipping on the ice. Dh says I overthink it but that doesn’t help! I also must do some culling especially of DGd’s toys and books they are too big for now. Have best day you can everyone.

Late in the day, as it usually is when I get to read the threads, but have to add my condolences to GrandMattie on the death of her sister and hoping that Susan's MiL's funeral went as well as these things can.
Also hoping Ash gets her MRI/CT scan sooner rather than later and that kittyL'S friend finds comfort and relief.
There are lots more I should mention but they and all of you are in my thoughts and prayers
