Good Morning Wednesday 23rd October 2024

Morning all from West Oxfordshire.

I was supposed to be helping OH pot 100 jars of honey today but he’s still fiddling around with the woodpecker guards he has been making. He is not a natural handyman!

I will bite the bullet and get my ironing done.

So probably a quiet day although I do need to look up computers and printers. My pc is 10 years old and behaving strangely and my printer is demented!

I do hope the school deal properly with the granddaughter who is being bullied. I remember my daughter having problems at secondary school years ago and they sorted it out.

Have a good day.

Morning all

No idea what the weather is like as I haven’t opened bedroom curtains yet.

GrannyIvy I hope your GD’s school sort this out quickly, poor little girl.

Off to the gym this morning, then I have to go to the big Sainsbury’s to get supplies in for half term next week, I shall have a houseful of GC.

Thinking of Marydoll 😘

Susan56 thinking of you and your mum.

Good morning all from a still dark North Leicestershire.

All quiet here. We have all 3 of DD3's children here but they appear to be still asleep. Wolfie enjoyed his shopping trip yesterday and spent 7 more 'monies' that his allowance. We were happy for him to overspend but not to have to cope with McDonalds during half term. Hopefully, next year he will prefer a pizza.

Coping with McDonalds at half term is very minor compared to the sad situations that some of you are dealing with, so I hope everyone has the best day possible.

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Very dark still.
A long walk yesterday in the Autumn sunshine. I showed our local stately pile to my Helper.

My Gaelic class was hilarious. Our teacher was in Halloween fancy dress and had us all singing, playing party games and gave us homemade biscuits. All in Gaelic ofcourse!

It was too early but there's no class next week.

Later I went to the folk club so today a quieter day is planned.

That's horrid for your DGD GrannyIvy. I hope the school can put a stop to the meanness.

I hope your DM is better soon Susan
I hope everyone has a good day.

Thank you Susan56 and hope things settle down with your mum. Not an easy time for you 💐

I’m so sorry your DGD has been having a difficult time at school GrannyIvy.I hope the school sort things out for her.
Hope today is a better day for her🤞🏻

Good morning from a dark Cambridgeshire. Having another quiet one here but hoping I will feel well enough to put a new Hellebore in and do a pot of bulbs for the patio. Tulips at the bottom and then daffodils with crocus and snowdrop on top. DH mowed the lawns yesterday. I still have a lot of colour out there.
Yesterday I collected GC from school and 10 year old had fallen in PE. She had a nasty scrape on knee and elbow and was very tearful. Then it came out her friends had been unkind at lunchtime and she sat on her own to eat her lunch. Two of her “friends” had been taking her lunch over the last week and following DD2 reporting this to her teacher the girls are being unkind to her. She needed lots of cuddles. Hoping she will have a better day today.
Hope everyone has a good day 💐

Good morning from Shropshire where another dry day is forecast.

We were looking forward to a day at home finally but have just had a phone call to say mum has an infection and has been moved to another ward.So upsetting as we had found a lovely care home and we’re preparing for her to be discharged.

My thoughts are for all struggling for health or other reasons.

Have the best day you can everyone🦩

Good morning from Malta where the high is to reach 27°C with a chance of showers. Despite a cloudy day yesterday the predicted rain never arrived.

No idea what I shall do with my day yet. I’m still in bed contemplating.

Wishing you all a good day. ☀️

Good morning, it’s dark and dry here, the forecast says it’s foggy?
Yesterday I had a good clean through the house, not that it was particularly grubby, DH vacuumed. Today nothing much to do other than the ironing.
I did do more of my embroidery, I’m really enjoying it. I also sorted out my slow stitching fabric stash, I have plenty to keep me going!
Today a dog walk before I start anything else, she and I happily pootle along, enjoying being outside regardless of the weather.
Have a lovely day 🌹

Good morning Michael and all that follow, early start in the Monk household DH last fishing contest for this season.
I'm on playgroup duties so busy day.
Will come back later to read everyone's happenings.
Enjoy your day everyone whatever your plans, safe travels those on the move and virtual hugs where needed.☀️

Good morning from Bristol. It’s chillier than Cantabria!
The holiday was good but made a great deal better by a very affable and knowledgeable guide. Thank you Paul.
We had an easy and uneventful journey from our hotel to Bilbao airport. It’s not very big, but pretty efficient.
Home by taxi, barely an hour after DD, who came back from her work South African trip. I’ll hear all about it (I hope) when I got to my usual Thursday dinner.
Today will be spent pottering and sorting out things.
I hope all the poor lies (especially MD) and unhappy have a gentle day.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
