Good Morning Everyone,
Its looking likes its just about to brighten up ,and have a reasonable warm day.
Today, I have got up washed, shaved ,showered and weighed myself.
I always take my electric meter reading on a Sunday, and do a weekly usage comparison .
Mind you its creeping up slightly as I am using more, under normal circumstances it would not be the case.
Take Care ,
Mick

You could well be sisters Gillybob grin though one problem in the family is more than enough. x .
It's like a pattern, but she's been fortunate in having a balanced ( Libran ) me at the back of her to help pick up all the pieces, although I'd have done the same for you had I been near enough.

Yet my D in Oz has been so lucky and she's Aquarius, just after Capricorn, which marks progress----right ! If she fell down the lavvy she'd come up with a rope of pearls grin been like that all her life.

Afternoon All

I usually have at least an hour to browse GN and eat my break at leisure before DH surfaces, but this morning he appeared just after 7.00am!! I’m all at sixes and sevens! Done a bit of pottering in the garden and am now sitting in shorts and sandals thinking I may just have to change - my tootsies are decidedly chilly!

I’d love to see your feedback to Barclays Gilly - I have a feeling it may well be used for training purposes!

Your DD is indeed lucky to have you watching her back EllanVannin I lost my mum a few years back but she had been ill for many years before that so itb was always the other way around for us.

I think our day will come eventually . It has to...surely....I mean doesn't it....please ? grin

Of course it will gilly - you have all of us behind you xx

Gillybobs, Oh no! You poor thing. I assumed that I had missed the upshot of your dental troubles.

Having had acute dental pain in the past and wanting to throw myself off a cliff at the time, I really feel and sympathise with you.

I hope that your referral won't take too long. Please update whenever your saga ends - I will try and watch out for it!
Regards

PS
I assume you have tried gargling with salt water and/or a dispersible aspirin or using ice?
I hope your GP has given you heavy-duty pain-killers too...
Wishing you better...

Love that description of your Aquarius daughter Ellan. I was married two Aquarians (not at the same time though - widowed by both). They were both "individuals" and great with ideas and thinking outside the box. As a balanced Libran, and typically indecisive, they were good for me. The second one was a great thinker. When I worried that the world might be hit by a large meteor (it was a mooted outside possibility at the time) he said no, it would be far more likely that a virus would finish us off ........

Daisybobs I got an unusual anniversary card for DH from a site called Thortful (correct spelling). The wording on the front was ‘If we can survive quarantine together, we can survive anything!’ and space inside for one’s own message plus add-ons such as a luxury bar of chocolate. Nice people to deal with.

Ooh Taichinan not the best thought to share right now! Although I agree - Aquarian’s are great thinkers. They love their friends and ‘thinking aloud’.

Our eldest daughter who is quite the individual in our small family! The rest of us chat about ‘stuff’ whilst she likes to converse about more cerebral topics.
?

Poor girl has us lot for relatives!

Taichinan Sun 17-May-20 19:53:05

Sorry Urmstongran. He died four years ago, and he said that a few years before that -long before anyone outside WHO was thinking pandemics. Just illustrating his 'out-of-the-box thinking! I'm the deep thinker in my family, Libran or no, so I sympathise with your daughter! ?

Thank you Kate54 I will have a look at Thortful. smile
