Good Morning Thursday 3rd April 2025

Morning everyone, the 10yr old slept here last night, so it’s an egg and bacon sandwich for his breakfast with fruit afterwards, off to school for 8am (fortunately it’s next door but one)

Then I will have a latte and buttered crumpets, before setting off to Gingster’s town to my hairdresser. Woven highlights and cut, so needed as I missed my last appointment due to my knee and foot.

(((hugs))) to all our poorly friends 🌸🌸🌸

Have a good day 🙋‍♀️

Morning Mick, morning All. Another sunny day ahead, wonderful

Antibiotics are doing their stuff and I can speak. Mr C says a mixed blessing. Huh. Off to Stowe on the Wold today, another coach trip, feast or famine with us.

Have the best day you can everyone. Hoping for something positive for us all.

Good morning all from a chilly North Leicestershire. We have in the forecast.

It is Memory Cafe today so up and off early for me. Sainsbury's delivery at teatime.

Good morning from sunny s somerset, cool wind again

The hand wax bath gave me a wonderful result, like magic, it increased hand circulation, relaxed the tendons and my hand pain disappeared and stayed away. I used a compression glove last night and the swelling has subsided, almost gone. The purchase was worth every penny, I will use it again this morning

Obviously no intense hand work today, not even knitting. I did get the magimix out of a cupboard yesterday and used that, also read the instruction book again. I wish I had room to keep the machine out. It weighs almost 7kg but then my sister has one which weighs almost 11kg and lifting mine is not a problem, I just need reminding to use it

The sun shows up the dust, best ignored and no point doing any windows with my left hand. Sitting out yesterday was no good, it was too cold but being inside is lovely, it feels like bathing in the sun and there will be more of that today

Have a good day

Thanks for the lovely comments. baubles, the flowers are painted. It is fascinating to watch how she does it, she somehow has two colours on the brush at the same time and a very steady hand.😊

Good morning from a fine Torbay where the wind is keeping it chilly despite the sun's best efforts.

Lovely nails, Bellasnana!

Sorry to read yesterday of bonnybanko being in hospital and hope recovery comes soon, also thoughts with Susan56 and Marydoll.

I didn’t make it to Wednesday club because the surgery pharmacist was late ringing me. I was rather surprised to be told I am anaemic as this wasn’t mentioned in hospital. From teenage years, I have been anaemic at times, particularly during pregnancy, post surgical procedures, etc. My research revealed that sodium helps with the absorption of iron so that could explain it.

Wishing everyone a good day and I hope the FriedGreenTomatoes2 are safely home. 🦩💐🦩🥰🦩

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. Still dark in South Yorkshire and there is a light frost on the car. I spent a very pleasant afternoon with a friend yesterday, drinking coffee and putting the world to rights at a local garden centre. We were still talking away in the car park.
My washing machine made a very strange noise yesterday during the spin cycle, though it did finish ok. I might run it through a cleaning cycle later to see what happens!
Walking group this morning and then a bite of lunch with DD before coming home. I may call in on my niece on the way home.
I love your pretty nails, Bellasnana - I have navvies hands and there’s no hope for them!
Have the best day you can, folks.

Good morning all. Dry and sunny today in Glasgow.

Still not calm enough to paint garden furniture using a spray gun which couldn’t happen anyway as I have hunted for said gun without success..no doubt DD1 has ‘borrowed it’!
Hairdressers this afternoon will be my outing for the day.

Wishing everyone a good day ahead and a better one for those coping with difficult times.

Pretty nails Bellasnana. Is the flower a transfer or did she paint it?

Gosh you were early this morning Mick! I’m on Maltese 🇲🇹 time and enjoying a proper chamberpot ☕️ in dark but dry north Wales!

Not sure who’s in charge of the weatherbarn here these days but you’ve excelled yourself with glorious 🌞 promised for the next two weeks! The irony eh Bellasnana! Love those nails and wish I could grow mine!

Smoothest journey home yesterday ending with fishnchips in the garden for early tea! I’m going to set up the patio for al fresco dining for the duration - this will remind me of mi Casa life where all meals and 🍹🍸🍷were scoffed outdoors😋

Sorry to hear that Blossoming is still in hospital 💐 and others with poorly loved ones. Relief at stitch removal eh Susan? All part of mending😂

A cruise Blue Sapphire… ooh I’m 🤢with envy! What delights await you this time?

A trot to Lidl and Tesco later whilst Mr PG is tasked with painting inside the summer house in beach colours…I’ve had to resort to numbering the different tins as he’s colourblind- talk about Paint-by-Numbers😱

Have a good day everyone x

Good morning Mick, morning all from South Lanarkshire. It’s still dark outside but dry and still.

We spent a chunk of yesterday going round garden centres looking at Camellia bushes as DH had told me that DS had talked about buying one for his partner’s birthday. Got home and sent DS photos and prices only to discover he’d actually said he wanted a Magnolia. Grr, back to the drawing board!

I intend to have a quiet day today, my crochet hook and audio book are calling me.
Have the best day possible everyone.

Good morning from Malta where we are promised a high of 19°C and a fine day.

I’m taking the boys to the play park this morning and a good friend of mine is joining us so it will be great to have an extra pair of hands for when Twin 1 goes walkabout!

They were very good boys yesterday and went off to nursery with no trouble.

I had my nails done (photo for anyone interested😂) which I enjoyed as my nail technician is such a sweetheart.

I had better get going. Wishing a good day to you all.☀️

Good morning from Bristol. The warm weather has everyone coming out like lizards…. 🦎
I sat out reading my book yesterday afternoon, but the cold wind had me scuttling back indoors after about 30 minutes. My upstairs neighbour came to join me outside, but ended up indoors with me. We were joined by a new resident. A jolly afternoon was had.
Today I have my taichi class, unless I have trouble with my other eye, in which case the Eye hospital A&E will beckon. The eye has been uncomfortable most of yesterday. Fingers crossed it’s settled down for now.
Have a pleasant day. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
