Yawn Yawn, Wakey WAKEY...!! 2015

sorry to hear this, Lynda. Stay strong

 

Morning all

Still a bit misty here so not sure what the weather's going to do. Got a housework morning so as long as the sun's out by the afternoon that'll do fine.

Hope everyone has a great day

 

Good morning everyone,

Lynda (((((Hugs)))))

Shiney, take it easy. Have a nice lunch out.

Have a good day everyone, stay clear of the toxic fog coming across from the continent.
God bless all.

 

Good morning everyone,

Eve,roll on this afternoon and you get some sunshine so you can get out there and do a bit House work is OK and has to be done I suppose but you can't beat being out there especially when that the sun makes an appearance

Shiney...We never learn do we,"We'll just finish that bit then call it a day" then we spot another 'little' job,"won't take a minute" Oh "I'll just move such and such and that's it" and so it goes on...It is rewarding in the end though when we can muster the strength to admire our work This has reminded me of year after year in the Spring I would get on my hands and knees and rummage around in the borders weeding and turning over the top of the soil with a hand fork,always found it easier that way and every year I ended up with a Tennis Elbowtalk about live and learn Enjoy your day off there'll be more to do tomorrow Ooo and don't let the hair dresser cut your hair as short as mine did yesterday

Waves to all,take it easy everyone and have a great day

 

Good morning folks. On a serious note (I'm not usually very good at doing serious) thank you for your lovely, kind and caring messages and pictures following my post yesterday. You truly are lovely folk and to come online and read them this morning was very comforting indeed. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU X X X

It's turning into quite a week here in Chateau Chaos. Yesterday I met my friend to walk the dogs and we met up with a couple who had just rescued a lovely boy from Battersea. He was a Staffy/Greyhound cross and very energetic, keen to chase his ball and bring it back. Being an excitable little soul, new park, new doggy friends, new family etc, he wasn't paying full attention to where he was going (do they ever ) and ran full speed into my knee dropping me to the ground in an instant. Of course he chose the knee that has crumbling cartilage and needs a knee replacement (I'm Phils full time carer so can't follow up this option right now) I did make it home but in a lot of pain and it's back to the crutches today (oh deepest,deepest joy) so it's gonna be good fun in this house for the forseeable future I think. This is not me:Nor is this:as we speak, this is me Or as close as I can get anyway!

Shiney, enjoy your lunch with Mrs S, have a good time. Our poorly folk, hope you continue making progress and enjoy your day everybody. Thanks again x x x

 

Ooo Lynda what a predicament.Is there anyone that could help both you and Phil out while you're out of action?The dogs don't realise do they,but they don't half come at you with some force when they're having a mad half hour...hope you're mended ASAP

 

Thank you Loli x x I am lucky to have very good friends, I can't praise them highly enough, but Phil prefers it to be just me. I know my son will give me a hand if I need shopping etc, he just lives up the road, so all good. Thanks so much for asking x x x

 

Good morning everyone,

Linda, do take care, hope you can cope. I am down with gout again and I have no colchine and cannot order any until tomorrow when doctors and chemist is closed. Will phone chemist today and see how I go.
Have a good day everyone, God bless.

 

Good morning everyone,

Moyra...Oh no,just when it was clearing up ,hope you get your jollop so you can get back on the right track

I think between us all we need putting in a bag and shaking up don't we

Big hugs to all we'll get there

It was gloriously sunny an hour ago,perfect Eclipse weather,camera on tripod and all set up,now it's thick cloud, typicalI'm just as curious to see the 'girls' reaction because I can remember the last eclipse and it was quite spooky with the wild birds in the garden.They suddenly started twittering and acting like the were grouping up to roost and then when the light dimmed it was completely silent.Fascinates me it does..The cloud is geting thicker by the minute so there looks like there is no chance of seeing it

I've got a 'charm' of Greenfinches flitting around the garden,haven't seen many of those in a while

Take it easy everyone and take care

 

Well this was supposed to be a different kind of morning here in UK, i.e. featuring a solar eclipse. I am in London.....bugger all happened! Just went a bit gloomy - sky overcast.

Anyone experience something less of an anti climax?

 

Morning folks x Hope we all had a good night. @moyra so sorry to hear that you are suffering again, I was going to write about scripts/getting meds etc then noticed, to my delight, @shiney has already written it all out, almost word for word. Also does your pharmacy deliver? I hope you get some relief today. Please take it easy and I am sending healing (((hugs))) to you x x

Good luck at the dentist @shiney x

Yesterday I spent mainly sitting down, so nothing of any excitement to report today - apart from my Mongolian Giant Sunflower seeds have germinated and (I kid you not) had the strength to push the lid off their little propogator! So it's their own fault if they get a bit nippy today because their lid won't shut now! I'm not sure if this is possible, but it looks like they grew over an inch yesterday (or did I just imagine that?)

@Lolimac eager to hear about the chickens reaction to the eclipse, we watched it on TV as very cloudy here, they had a camera in an aeroplane and it was amazing to watch. Nature has fabulous miracles to offer.

Not much to report due to being grounded with my knee, but hope we all have a good day, weather improving all the time and we'll soon all be out in the garden before we know it
