Good Morning Thursday Maundy Thursday 28th March 2024

I accidentally posted before checking or wishing you all a happy day.

Morning Mick, morning All. A sunny start is rapidly deteriorating, dark clouds advancing.

Work completed yesterday today we continue to re-populate the conservatory. A quiet Easter weekend ahead to recover.

Safe travels oops, stay safe. That’s excellent support bahbles , with luck the MRI will be soon

Hope Thursday is kind to us all.

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It has rained overnight but the sun is now breaking through. More rain is forecast though. I felt quite ill last night and had a headache and sore throat all yesterday afternoon so I will not be going out with the walking group even though I feel rather better this morning. I’ll recharge my batteries.
Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning all from a chilly Glasgow, where it is 5°C. Bella, Valletta is one of our favourite cities, I am quite envious!

Oops how awful for you. 💐 Nothing worse than having vertigo, but travelling with it doesn't bear thinking about. I once flew home from Rome with a full blown migraine.

Brook safe journey home.

Mizuna, I haven't yet been able to take a photo of the fruit trees due to the constant rain.

GM, I hope the residents are better behaved than my mother. She constantly pressed hers, resulting in me racing to her home after a phone call, only to find there was no problem,
All joking aside, they should be mandatory for vulnerable people, who live alone.
Could it be cost, which is making the management team reluctant?

Yesterday's journey to pick up prescriptions in torrential rain was really stressful, compounded by dangerous drivers and the fact that some pain relief ones were missing. Feeling awful after my adventure didn't help. .
The receptionist kindly agreed to sort it out and arranged for the prescriptions to be sent to a pharmacy near my son's, which was a relief.

I had planned a very easy day today, before going down to church tonight. We will be busy, but Babydoll is coming for a state visit, so it will be a full on day 💕

Have a good day folks, whatever your plans. Love to all, who are struggling. 💐

Apologies baubles.

Good morning all. It was a beautiful sunny start here on the Angus coast, but as per my weather app it's now changing rapidly and the rain will be raining merrily very shortly. Sigh.
Better luck with your journey home today Brook. And Oops too .
Well done grandmattie for 'stirring it up' regarding alarm pendants after some of your fellow residents' recent falls. I hope the battle isn't too prolonged.
A quiet weekend coming up here too Mizuna.
Today, though, is busy with tai chi and a 'big shop' - in the rain!
Have a good day and as usual love and healing vibes to those unwell or heavy in heart 💜

Good morning from s somerset, dark clouds and lots of rain heading this way soon

I will look forward to reading posts later. I am completely out of kilter just now, woke much later than normal and am now out of synch with my antibiotics timings. I am going to have to eat my last meal later and wait up otherwise I will get gerd during the night

I still need to take ibuprofen, the increase in swelling is happening, as it should when healing and I am hoping that swelling starts to subside by tomorrow night. Ibruprofen has a mechanism that blocks something that causes swelling, otherwise I would not take it

Anyway, I have a shower plug hole to deal with this afternoon, the typical plughole whiff and I have the freezer on quick freeze, I have a small box of fish and meat arriving today. Otherwise just sitting for me

Have a good day

Morning all, raining at bedtime, overnight and forecast more today 🙁
Have a steady journey back oops and I hope you get back brook. That sounds worrying baubles 🤞for an MRI soon.
Pendants or pedants gMattie keep battling on.
Plumber coming to finalise dates for our en-suite refurbishment this morning and I’ll be finalising my Tesco delivery list for tomorrow.
🦩🦩

Baubles *. That is an excellent response from your GP. I hope you get help ASAP.

It took six months of excruiating pain, before my vertebraic fractures were diagnosed and only by chance, after a body scan for R.A, Any higher or diagnosed later, and I would have been paralysed.

I was fortunate to be a guinea pig in an innovative trial, (Verteboplasty) sponsored by the Mayo Clinic and now have bone cement holding those fractures together.
I will keep you in my prayers.

Good morning from a grey NE.
Yesterday was a quiet day but had an unexpected delivery, a bouquet, from my sister in Germany.
GD's school posted lots of photographs of the holiday in Normandy, lovely to see.
DD and SIL are coming to take me shopping today, need to stock up for the weekend.
Sister and BIL are off to visit their family so won't see them for a few weekends.
Safe travels.

Good morning from Sefton. Despite my weather app telling me it's raining with a fresh breeze I can see sunshine, a clear blue sky & no movement in the trees.. A cheerful sight.
I am feeling so much better this morning. The 'bug' symptoms have finally subsided. Oh the hazards of international travel!!
Not too much planned for today. First a visit to the fish man & his van which is conveniently parked right next to Lidl. So a mooch Lidl's middle aisle is on the cards. There is also a stack of ironing awaiting attention.
Enjoy your day whatever your plans. Thoughts with those struggling with life.

Haircut shortly then U3A book group to discuss William Hague’s excellent biography of William Wilberforce. Hope others enjoyed it as much as I did. Then a big shop now I have decided what to feed the family over Easter, not forgetting oat milk for DGD and Earl Grey tea for DD. That will constitute a full day for me! Hope all the various battles (pendants and dog walking) are resolved and various bugs clear up - mine has although I can’t turn my head quickly without everything spinning.

Morning from Biggar where I’m dog sitting for DD4’s poorly wee pet
He’s not at all well and I think, with no children, he is extra special to them.
Oh dear.

I hope you have a nice distracting weekend Susan, you’re having a challenging time.

In a different way. You too Roses💐

So very sad to read about your friend’s grandson Gingster, nothing much to say but I will be remembering him and his family.

I can’t help but laugh Mizuna, like Grammaretto and her crow, 🐦‍⬛, only you could find yourself accidentally close to the Space Shuttle!

Safe journey home Brook and wishing everyone the best day possible.

Good morning everyone from a cloudy Northampton; half an hour ago it was bright and sunny 🌞 so I hastily put a load of washing on...... we shall see.

A good book club yesterday (although most of the time was spent putting the world to rights!), enhanced by a glass of cremant and fresh cream sponge.

Am expecting an engineer to arrive today to fix my oven - I think the heating element has gone - and had a text earlier to say he will visit between 12 and 3. A Sainsbury's delivery due late morning, and apart from that a gentle pottering day.

Hoping that Thursday is kind to all.

Good morning from a wet and chilly Stirlingshire. Husband off curling this morning and I must go out for some food shopping. Then it's waiting in to see if someone comes to see about replacing roughcasting on our garage as some fell off when getting the new garage door. Love the door though it is an electric one so no more stretching up for a vertically challenged person like myself. Ds and his family off on holiday for two weeks so it will be quiet here with no childcare duties. I will miss it. Nothing planned for Easter, will just have a nice dinner ourselves. Thought with those with worries.

Good morning Mick and all from cloudy Lancashire, currently 6°C.

My stomach seems to have settled for the moment and I had a much better night. Fingers crossed it stays that way. I have bought some Easter goodies from the chocolate factory in Orton and I hope to enjoy them, MrB and I have been eating more healthily and seldom have sweet treats.

Safe travels Oops and Brook.

Sad news about your friend’s grandson Gingster

I cleaned the shower drain last week Karma, not my favourite chore but needs must! Why does it always smell so awful?

Have the best day you can, whatever you’re doing 🌻

Scapa the Lake of Monteith was always a favourite spot for curling in days gone by. Enjoy your childcare free days.

Good morning from a very sunny. Quiet day today after a fabulous birthday yesterday. A visit from my eldest son and a lovely long phone call from my youngest son. My world is complete. Had a lovely meal out last night with hubby and a birthday to cut today. Belgian chocolate and raspberry cake, ah bliss. Happy days to everyone.
