Good Morning from a dull Co Armagh,
yesterday I managed to walk round our little garden , admiring the crocus and noting where wee daffodils were.
My latest attempt at keeping fit is to get up during boring bits or ads on tv and see how many times I can walk to the front door and back before my back gives in !! The hall is long
Hoping for some sun or at least brightness today for all

Good morning everyone from the west midlands.
A bright mild day here today & not a lot going-on really, which is not particularly conducive to my low mood today.
I'm hoping it's just the tail -end of the winter blues & come the brighter days, my mood will improve. It has to or MrIlovedogs will clear-orf with the floozy down the road! Have the best day possible all & thank goodness for GN for helping me decompress. 😶

Good morning, Michael12 and everyone!

I started my new job as a retail shop manager here in Whitby on the 14th of February and love it!

My boss was going to have me off work on a Thursday, but working the other 6 days, but has had to change it to Tuesday, which is OK with me!

There's been more flooding here!

I love my new flat and have finally set everything up with furniture, etc., and have got my small bedroom, but turned the bigger one into an office/studio. Good, quiet neighbours and a good landlord.

I've only lived here since early January of this year and have already found various eateries! I love my food! The Singling Kettle in Angel Yard is my new best friend cafe! Their Full English brekkies are gob-smacking, although I have to ask them to skip the black pudding and give men an extra egg instead!

And Passage To India is my new best friend Fine Dining Restaurant, 30-31 Windsor Terrace! So the cafe is my once-a-weekly in the morning, and the restaurant is my once-a-monthly in the evenings!

When I lived in Appleby, I didn't have any pets as I was working up to 18 hours a day, 6 days a week, as a carer in a home, and various other long-shift jobs before that, but now I'm on reduced hours but still working 6 days a week, including Sunday, I'm thinking of getting a small pet, maybe some mice, or other rodents, maybe a Western Hognose Snake or a Milk Snake or Corn Snake.

I absolutely LOVE Martin Clunes, so I watched his 4-hour film, Out There. I can't believe that the 2 actors who played the teenage brother and sister, Rhys and Sadie, drug addicts, who were supposed to be 15 and about 18, are actually in their 30s! Anyone thinking of watching it, beware, it's got loads of f-bombs, a sexual assault, drugs, blood and violence! Just shows you don't know what goes on behind the barn doors of a cute little Welsh village!

Have a good one, all of you!

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

I haven’t been feeling very well for the last few days and I have been sleeping poorly due to the stress. I’m terrified of going back into hospital, it was an awful experience and every twinge sets my mind racing along frightening pathways. I have never suffered from health anxiety before! MrB has taken me to Lytham this morning, always a happy place for me and it has done me so much good.

Onwards and upwards 🌹

You sound like a new woman TheWeirdoAgain60, I’m glad you’ve found your happy place.

Beautiful Blossoming, I do understand your anxieties x
