Good morning, it’s pleasantly cool here in south Glos with the windows wide open. The sky is lightening, I’ve been watching it for the last two hours or so.
Yesterday was another day of doing little, today I want to make some flapjacks and clean the fridge out.
I will get up shortly and water all my pots, it’s too hot to do them in the evening.
I had a letter and a text yesterday for a phone consultation with the BRI Thoracic team Tuesday, I was waiting for a pre-op appointment. I can’t imagine they’ll do a pre-op by phone will they? Perhaps it’s just to tell me when my pre-op is? Who knows.
Laying here I realise i do need to tidy my bedroom up, I’ve been lazy recently so that’s something else to do this morning.
Have a lovely day x

Good morning from Bristol. I have my front door and bedroom window wide open, making a lovey cross breeze…
Quiet Saturday, although coffee in church was surprisingly busy. Not sure whether people found the church cooler or they wanted some company.
I spent the day quietly, watching N by NW on tv, amongst other things.
Today, Iris has the British RDA finals. I’m not sure where they take place, but I don’t think they are on the other side of the country. She was looking forward to them.
I shall keep quiet and do very little again today.
May you have a blessed Sunday free of sorrow, anxiety or pain. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from Malta where it will be a sunny day with a high of 37°C.

Yesterday, after I’d done my half hour on the cross trainer, I was so sweaty I thought I’d do the worst jobs before I showered so I started with sweeping the steps down to the garages since nobody else bothers and it looks awful.

I had planned to wash them as well but after doing each step with my dustpan and brush, (there are a lot of them!) I thought I’d better leave that but I did wash my own front steps. Then I steam mopped all the floors before showering.

Had a break before bringing the ladder in to get the bedroom curtains down in two rooms, the other one has a Roman blind, but my room and the boys room have patio doors so just one long curtain. Both are now washed and back in place so I felt quite pleased with my efforts.

Watched the ladies final which was quite a match. Men’s later today which I’m hoping Sinner will win.

Usual day today, Mass then a chat with my pal in Leicester via FaceTime.

RosesandLilac, I don’t understand the system at all in UK. A letter and a text to tell you about a phone call? More waiting and worrying, it’s enough to drive you mad. 😢

Thinking of you all and hoping your day goes well.☀️

Good morning Mick and all it’s going to be rather cloudy here today, with a high of 27° I shall be on my sun lounger in the shade reading, a repeat of yesterday. Struggling to keep blood oxygen levels above the so called admission zone keeping everything crossed that the steroids will work their magic asap 🤞

So pleased for our footie team, I will have very happy AC and GC ⚽️⚽️⚽️ Go England 👏👏👏

It’s a worrying time for you RosesandLilac

Good luck to Iris grandMattie

Bellasnana I am exhausted reading your post

Good morning from La Sarthe where it is forecast to be hot again. Currently, we’re enjoying the coolness of the early morning with open windows throughout before the unbearable heat returns.

Yesterday we drove to our local Intermarché to top up my car and do a mini shop for essentials. Being a mild hybrid, my car is quite light on fuel consumption especially on longer runs like the journey here.

Have a good day, everyone. 🦩🥰😎💐🦩
