🦞🦂 *What are we up to?*🦂🦞

I had a beautiful wisteria when I lived in the other house, full of blue blossom.

I get attached to my plants and Wisteria and I had been together 16 years.
I was assured the next people would look after it.

Instead, they pulled it out. I was sad for a long time when I heard that.

TMI alert

Went for my ecg yesterday. I've had them before but this was so brutal it split my skin and drew blood.
The technician fetched tissue but not for me. They were - to clean the equpment of my gore.

Hoping for a calmer day today, it's the Sallies Community lunch.

I shall be picked up in a flash Mustang owned by my friend Larry whom I've mentioned before has a lovely southern drawl. (Alabama?)
He's also very good fun and laughs easily.

Oh Jan that made me laugh. What a naughty little Theo playing hide and seek. 🤣
I had a king but enjoyable morning in church today., we had our lent course and it was well attended. Art for me tomorrow.

Kaimoana I’ve not heard of that happening before. Your skin must be so delicate they should have taken more care. Ooh look at you lady, driving around in a mustang. Have a lovely time

Grammaretto i Hope you enjoyed yarn group and lunch with your potter friend. My knit and natter tomorrow lots of the second and not so much of the first. 🧶

I wrote a disappearing post late last night. I tried to share a photo and pressed the wrong button.

I broke a mirror this morning. It was a full length one but just propped up in my bedroom. I am hoping it means the end of 7 years of bad luck rather than the start.
🍀🤞🙏😟
I popped into a charity shop and there was a mirror almost identical for £6.
So the good luck has begun.

Sorry to hear that your delicate skin was broken during your ECG Kaimoana . 😢
Exciting times in a Mustang though.

The theme for the potters' fancy dress ceilidh next month is Wild West. 🤠 🐎 😲

Theo's games made me laugh Jan thanks.
😂🤣

Glad you enjoyed church Doodle and that art group goes well too.

Oh Grammaretto what a difficult thing to clear up. Hope you managed to find all the glass. Sounds like a big mirror too.
Ooh I’d love to see a photo of your Wild West outfit. Calamity Jane, Annie Oakley……. Wonderful

It's ok Doodle The glass stayed inside its frame.
When I told the people at ceilidh dancing tonight they all laughed cruelly and said the mirror must have cracked when I looked in it 😥

What a horrible thing to say.
I hope someone dances on their corns.

Ooh Grammaretto that’s not nice. A bit like Kaimoana i Hope you stamped on their feet.
I’m off to church tomorrow for our church tidy and clean. Last year I did the brass. Took me forever.

It was a joke. She's the friend who invited me for Christmas lunch so a lovely lady.

I seem to be going down with something. I have a very sore throat. Such a nuisance as I'm going on a long train journey tomorrow to stay with my sister who's having a birthday party.

Luckily my Friday friend couldn't come this evening so I froze the food, have packed, dosed myself with hot toddies and everything in the medicine cupboard and gone to bed.

See you tomorrow lovely Lobstars xxxx

Do hope you wake refreshed and fit to travel, Grammaretto.
Enjoy your time away.

"I'm going on a long train journey tomorrow to stay with my sister who's having a birthday party."
And no doubt your sore throat 2 days hence!

It's not often I hear a joke but our Elder's lunch always begine with a Bible reading and then a 'funny'

A driver had been tailgating the slow car in front and shouting horrible curses and threats.
When the line of cars halted at a red light, a police officer, who had been driving behind the tailgater , approached and ordered the irate driver to get out.
He began to issue the standard statement prior to an arrest.
"Hold on," said the tailgater, "what are you arresting me for?"
"I heard you swearing but saw the stickers on the back of the car: a fish, the slogan "God Loves You", and "Forgive as Jesus Did" so I knew you'd stolen the car".

Was it the 28th for your 'procedure', Kaimoana?
If so, hoping it went well - and that I've got the time difference right.

I hope your operation went well Kaimoana and you can breathe again .

Oh crikey, I'd lost track of the date/time
Gentle hugs and all good wishes Kaimoana

Goodness me too, hope all went well. Love and hugs. 🥰

Grammaretto I’ve got a sore throat too. You’ve given me your bug 😡
Seriously, hope you have a good trip and enjoy the party.

It's been postponed, 'sometime in late March" was the latests advice.

Oh no!
How frustrating.

Drat Kaimoana more waiting. It's not as though at our age we have all the time in the world.

Sorry I've given you my sore throat Doodle 😭
It's very sore, a real spoiler.

The party was fun and some of my sister's friends were familiar from 10 years ago at her last big bash. But my gt nephews and nieces are teenagers now and very different.

My DB and wife are here too. I just wish I was well.

I did post almost straightaway last night to say how sorry I was, but no pink post highlighting here must mean I didn't press send. Grr.

Lovely day here today, I think I might remove the cages over my tubs of bulbs at last.

Spring has sprung where you are Ixion.
It's sprung here too. This is Cambridge.

Kaimoana so sorry about the postponement. You get geared up for things then they change the plan. Sending hugs.
Church this morning for me then got in tied to impromptu lunch with friends. Very nice.

Are you on your way back, Grammaretto, or staying over longer?
Sorry you're not feeling great 🌺

I hope all the poorly people begin to feel better very soon.
Kaimoana... What a grrrr moment at being postponed... everything crossed that the reschedule goes ahead.
Doodle... impromptu things are sometimes so much better than pre planned ones aren't they....
We have finally booked out Caribbean Honeymoon cruise....it's not until next Feb, we wanted to go this year but with the uncertainty of the op we couldn't.
Breaking wth tradition DH's best friend ( and best man) and my best friend ( and 'bridesmaid') are coming too

*We are also going to Cobh in Southern Ireland in June in Maeve Mouse Maeve M'ini'
H'ouse' aka the Motorhome*
We are going to meet up with the couple who were my very first Airbnb hosts, they lived in Mount Gambier in Australia and I was driving the Great Ocean Road from Adelaide to Melbourne. We only spent a few hours together but got on so well and here we are meeting up again after over 10 years
Hopefully I will be fit and able ( and a stone lighter) by then... I'm still in a lot of pain which I thought would be lessening by now...in my groin and through my femur. It's a catch 22 as I want to walk and increase my fitness but the pain is limiting me. Mr NN continues to be so encouraging. It was 7 years yesterday that we started talking...and spent ages yesterday reminiscing and being thankful for the blessings that have come our way....neither of us take it for granted and never will♥️
