Good Morning Tuesday 4th August 2026

Good morning all from a cloudy but warm North Leicestershire.

Early start as DH has another early drive. I will have a lazy start and then I am meeting some choir friends for coffee and cake. This afternoon I have a shoulder massage booked.

DS2 didn't make it here on Sunday so is popping in this afternoon.

Thinking of Rosesandlilac.

Good morning all from Polmont where it's currently 14° and pouring rain. Bellasnana blinds will make a big difference. GrandMattie I hope the baking goes well. Rosesandlilac we are all thinking of you today.
Yesterday was a quiet day with dgs2. When we dropped off dgs1 at his friend's house, dgs2 was so upset. He wanted his brother. He was quite subdued for a while. Dsil picked him up earlier than usual and immediately claimed the peanut butter cookies! He can fight with dgs1 for those.
Today dgs1 has football camp. I will drop him off at 10 then take dgs2 to soft play for an hour or so. Then back to my house to play until it's time to get his brother. Have a good day all.

Good morning Mick and all 🙋‍♀️

I have no plans today, which is unusual in the school holidays. I should attempt the ironing, but who knows 🤷‍♀️

Rosesandlilac will keep everything crossed for you today 🤞🏻🌹🪻

Good morning from s somerset, cloudy today, I hope

I feel like a passenger on the earth at the moment, there is an awful lot going on causing mass upset in molecules, structures, formations and so on. No wonder so many people feel overwhelmed by it all. Huge energies from the sun and from below the sea, it is all affecting us and how we feel and our ability to cope

A day at a time, our brave *Rosesand Lilac* is a shining example of that

I went to bed last night thinking about someone I know, 45 and has a very sudden diagnosis of an aggressive cancer after doubling up in pain and unable to get a doctors appointment. I woke up thinking about her too

Today, I will just potter

Good morning from Malta where it is already 29°C in my living room. The high today is 40°C.

I didn’t manage to post yesterday as my two Treasures had me on a string!😅. They were as good as gold but I was worn out by the time DD3 picked them up after lunch having enjoyed her concert and lie-in!

A lovely young man came to measure for the blinds for the patio doors in the living room. They are eye-wateringly expensive but worth it I think and will be more use than the net curtain I’ve had for ten years and am sick of!

Today I have a hair appointment after which I shall join my youngest nephew and family who are over here on holiday from Kent. DD3 and the boys will be having lunch with them and I will join them for coffee. My nephew and DD3 were born a day apart and he has a little boy a bit older than our two.

My thoughts are also with you RosesandLilac. You have been so incredibly brave whilst enduring an agonisingly long wait and we are all with you today and in the days that follow.🙏🏻

Wishing a good day to you all.☀️

r&l thinking of you today

Good morning from a dry, dawning Bristol. It was hot yesterday, especially with the day-long cloud cover.
r&l, you will be much in my thoughts today, you and the surgical team. 🫂
Nothing much to report. Today, I’ll be baking for the FAB cafe now monthly live concert 🎶 tomorrow. I start early - 830ish and am usually done by 11 at the latest, before it get too hot. The rest of the day is empty.
I’ve started to assemble the quilt I’ve been making, so a lot of hand sewing.
Keeps safe in this return of heat, mountaineers especially.
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
