Good morning Michael and all GN's from a very dark and quiet North Yorkshire . Glad to be up after a poor night, and just hope for an improving day.
Yesterday was a mixture, with some small success in a few areas , but frustrating poor results or should I say no results in others. It took me a very frustrating long time to get myself sorted, and ready to go out in the morning, but I evcntually got off on the yellow peril. took my mac and cover for the buggy as it looked quite dark and with the possibility of the promised showers. However, the weather changed its mind and cleared up to a sunny but very windy morning, which was pleasant to be out and about on.
I was a bit later getting off than I had intended as there were various things I needed to do first at home. Amongst other bits and pieces I had cut out a piece from the local paper , where a housing company was saying they had money on offer for local charities etc etc., and found it and was able to pass on the information to someone who runs a local charity with others, and so hope it might end up with some funds for them. At least if you know in time you have the chance, so fingers crossed on that front. I still didnt have any success in finding some papers I need, but did do a bit of sorting and ripping up out of date things. Then off doing various jobs and looked in the building society, which for once was very quiet, and so went in and had chance to speak to someone. I wanted to check up on the latest figures , and find out what if any changes there had been. So that was worth calling in for, but I had wanted to go to somewhere else and they unexpectedly were shut, with a notice apologising for unexpected need to be closed, so that was a wasted bit of the journey, so swings and roundabouts.
Came home , still creaking, and couldnt face starting the ironing. Overall didnt feel too good, and wished I could have done a bit of gardening, but no chance, I did a few bits and pieces and then made the effort to go through some clothes , so that I have a bag of summer things, clean but not ironed , ready to go away, one or two things to throw out, and a couple of winter trousers, which last year had been a bit tight, which I am accepting I will not be comfortable, so they are clean and ironed and ready to give to the charity shop today. Also sorted out a few books to go with them, so although it wasnt a great deal, I have at least made a start. I cleared up and made a meal and then watched the various quiz programmes that I enjoy having a go at and then the last part of the play, so not an exciting day but a bit done
Today struggling to do much yet. I am hoping that my shower will help a bit, as my legs feel very tight and somewhat painful, so no chance of any time in the garden , although I might go round with the secateurs and have a bit of a tidy up that way. Fingers crossed I will make it to the games night tonight. Oneway and another , I have missed a few weeks, so will need to brush up my techniques and hope I can remember enough to play a reasonable game.
I hope that your nurse can be helpful for you this morning Michael and that you get no more scam callers. I wish that they could invent a way where if you get scam calls, your phone retains their numbers and rings THEM at 2 in the morning!!
Well still very dark outside , and no sign of life anywhere so I am off to get some coffee and then look out some clean clothes and then if it is still very early I may pick out a couple of outfits to iron, so that at least I have something that looks clean and tidy . Perhaps I might then find he energy to get a fair bit more ironed. Thinking of you all and hoping that today will go well for everyone.
