Good Morning Thursday 29th February " Leap Year Day" 2024

Thank you all for your kindly support which has brought tears to my eyes. This is happening all too frequently of late and has cast a pall over DH’s visit although he has been very patient. 💕

Good morning everyone from a dry Cambridgeshire but heavy rain expected later!

Today I will go to my exercise class then to lunch with a friend for a catch up. It will be good to get out as been a bit of a recluse this week due to ear infection which has been slow to resolve.

Do hope everyone has a good day and my thoughts and best wishes go to those unwell and struggling. Keep positive we have too. Take care x

Feeling for you Ash, I know that's hard news to receive.

Oh Ash I’m sorry you have these health issues and am not surprised you are preoccupied.I think it takes a while to get used to any new diagnosis.I hope you can see your GP soon who will hopefully put your mind at rest💐

Goodness ash I’m not surprised you’re preoccupied. I’m so sorry you’re anticipating difficulty with a GP appointment. Hope not once the surgery understand why it’s needed . Sending a huge hug.

Good morning from a damp Cornwall where the gulls are gathering noisily. Will be waiting around today for an Argos delivery of grown-up Lego for my son's 40th birthday present so can't go journeying far but will pop out down the road into town; I get an hour's notice so I can easily come back when I hear. Library, bank, Tesco and Costa today, then to the much-missed beach tomorrow.

Good morning from a damp but still Torbay.

Yesterday saw me at A and E on the recommendation of my GP in a telephone appointment because my left hand ring finger knuckle is very swollen. Without examining it, he thought it could be a septic joint. An X-ray proved it to be arthritis and I had my wedding ring cut off whilst there to make my finger more comfortable.

I mentioned my recent brain scan for which I’ve had no feedback yet so the doctor helpfully looked up the result which confirmed I have had a TIA. I have no recollection of this occurring but know my memory isn’t as sharp as it once was. He was emphatic that I should see my GP for a review of medication and to discuss what support services are available.
I will try but am not hopeful of being seen.

Sorry for rambling on but I am rather preoccupied with this at the moment.

Have a good day, everyone . 🦩💐🦩🥰🦩

Morning Mick, Morning g All from a soggy corner of Somerset.

Second quote for blinds yesterday. Struggling to settle on fabric, that’s the trouble with having a clear image of what we’d like - seems not available. Nothing will happen until after carpet upheaval in three weeks so time to ponder.

A wait and see day here. Neither of us have a lot of energy, a slow day is fine. Will check on a poorly neighbour, think about a phone call or two and generally faff around.

Good luck with your tv mick, one of the apps on ours is seriously temperamental, a challenge for another day.

Hope Thursday is kind to us all.

Good morning from Shropshire.A dry day forecast.

Today we are off to Staffordshire where DGS1 has invited me to be his guest for school dinner.We are both looking forward to it.DD2 finishes work at midday today so we will go into town this afternoon and DH will collect DGS from school.

We had trouble with our tv yesterday too Mick and had to sign back in to every channel🤦🏼‍♀️

Thoughts with all struggling and with a mountain to climb.Marydoll I am so sorry you are suffering so much pain💐

Have the best day you can everyone🦩

Good morning Mick, you’re an early bird this morning! Hope you get your tv sorted, it’s frustrating when things we take for granted go wrong.

It’s supposed to be a rainy day here in Malta with a high of 17°C however, we shall see as the forecast isn’t always correct.

I’m just enjoying my coffee before driving the short distance to DD3’s to look after the boys. Thursday is our long day but I slept better last night so should be ok. I do love being with those two dear little boys.

Wishing you all as good a day as possible.☀️

Good morning from a damp Bristol. Weird day of maxima now descending into a minimum in the early hours…
I had a quiet day, culminating in an evening Lent group. Unfortunately, the curate who would have led us is unwell so the vicar took over. They have very different attitudes.
I’m going to DD’s for dinner as usual.
May the day be kind to everyone. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
