Good morning all from a very wet Glasgow. Once again DH is playing golf and once again, I think he is mad. He has just got Friday's wet clothes, clubs, shoes bag etc dried out! However, I'm looking forward to the empty, just not his return.?
Dear Elizabeth, you are on the correct thread, it is Monday today and we do have one each day. I hope you are making good progress and your husband is keeping much better better.
Ashcombe, lovely photo and what a relief to get a negative result. Hoping that those awaiting test results, also receive good news.
Mick deep fried Brussels sprouts doesn't quite cut if for me, but I suppose it is a good idea for using up leftovers.
Yesterday, I watched the Hairy Bikers making bubble and squeak, which sounds much more palatable.
Today I have one more gift to wrap and I'm done. that is if the Hermes courier turns up with it! I've never been so organised, even all the cards are done. He seems to have gone AWOL with it.
When I was working, my neighbours used to laugh at me rushing around posting cards on Christmas Eve. There were never enough hours in the day then, oh how I long for those busy times again!
Today I plan to make the jars of marmalade to give to my neighbours as little gifts. I may give it a lift with by adding some Cointreau. ? I have some mini kilner jars, so they should look quite nice.
I have a letter to write to my lovely son in law's brother's wife. We have really hit off and she is a prolific letter writer, so I must respond to her.
My SIL was the youngest of a very large family, witha huge age gap between the youngest and eldest and we discovered that his eldest brother and I were in the same archaeology class together. We have met them for meals on a few occasions and got on so well.
However, SIL's brother began to doubt if I was ever in his class at university, as I couldn't remember anything about the people in it or what we studied, until I produced the actual degree exam paper! Heaven knows why I have kept it!! Well it may be because after that exam on 4th June 1976, I got engaged in Kelvingrove Park, in the shadow of Glasgow University. Very romantic indeed. ??
After that I think DH completely lost his romantic mojo! ?
I was going to relate the story of DH and I's attempt yesterday, to put rug tape on two bedside rugs in a tight space. We didn't get tied up in knots, but more like stuck together with mega sticky rug tape!! ?
Oh and it hasn't worked. ?
Wishing everyone as pleasant a day as possible and keeping Grammaretto and her family in my thoughts. A dreadful time for her family. ?
