Yawn Yawn Wakey Wakey 2020

Good day
It is cloudy and cold. So I'm going to spend the day inside.

I'll be crushing hot peppers whilst my beloved Corrie is airing. I hope Jeff gets his this week -and yes, I did write this last week and the week before and so on. A very long running storyline...

And I'll be baking some bread and doing some tidying. Just generally slouching around the house

Have a lovely day all and please play safe

 

Good afternoon all!

just got back from the hair dressers, there was only me there, it seems quite strange with no magazines to read, but it does encourage people to talk to each other more, also this am I’ve been packing My glass vases, still got lots more to do.
Lori can you send some of your bread this way please

 

Yes, @Flumpy , here are some of my cheese buns. I'm always surprised at the might of the yeast as the buns still rise even though I double up on the amount of cheese in the recipe!

I'm thinking of making some cupcakes today too. I think you call them "Bunny" cakes? I recall something like that from a Midsomer episode where John Nettles consumes some cakes baked by an elderly couple who also dosed them with cannabis

 

I once ate a slice of chocolate cake with my friend, unbeknown to me, it had cannabis in it I remember thinking why are my legs feeling funny

 

@Flumpy I'm glad it worked out okay but I never give anyone any CBD unless they know in advance and ask for it. It sure takes away my hip pains on those occasions when I need relief

Made the cupcakes. Chocolate with chocolate frosting. Didn't want to put the mixing utensils in the dishwasher as is, so gave them a thorough licking first

 

Sorry I have not been posting am still not very well. District nurse coming out on Wednesday to take my blood. Stay safe and well.

 

Moyra hope your feeling better soon..... big hugs

 

Good day
@moyra I hope you start recovering soon. Hugs and healing thoughts from me

@shiney yes, I remember them. Very pleasant to listen to. Hard to believe they are more than 65!

I am getting in gear today to get most of the dog bed sewn. This thing is huge. I think I mentioned it is in the shape of half a stop sign but to give you a visual, it is 60" wide and 54" from to back. Lots of cording to make but I'm raring to go and get it done

Sam has an appointment with the immunologist at the hospital today so after we get back and if I've been a productive woman, I'll be outside moving things around and putting bulbs in for next year. Some pepper plants are so slow, they still haven't flowered so I know it's too late now and will probably pull them out of their pots. And Sam always loves working the wood stove and baking soil for me

Have a lovely day all and do please play safe

 

Good morning from the glorious wet NW, hope the weather is better where you are, have a nice day

 

Good day,
@Flumpy we are expecting it to pour tonight and tomorrow and then be sunny again for a few days and in the high 60's to low 70's. Perfect for working outside.

I'm working on getting things transplanted before the rain starts so that the watering in gets done by Mother nature. The ground is still pretty wet from Sunday and Monday's rain so this is wonderful timing for me.

I got that big cushion done and had the wrestling match to get the foam into the new cover. Good workout I'm following my son to take some court paperwork to the notary to have their magic stamp put on them and then son will leave from there to go to work and I will head to the library to scan the documents to email myself. I think I mentioned we bought various partial yards of quilting cotton and she is having a hoot making masks with it. Lots of nice colours and patterns for her to play with and that is most likely what she'll be doing whilst I'm out getting the paperwork sorted.

Then Sam and I have some other bits and pieces to do. I will be doing some more garden work and she will be baking more soil. She loves have a fire

Have a lovely day all and please play safe

 

My district nurse didn't turn up again this morning.So i think I shall tell them not to bother.
Steve has taken my urine sample up to the docs and is going to tell them not to bother about my blood sample, if they cannot be bothered to come, then I don't see the point of getting upset myself. I hope Sam's checkup goes ok @CanadianLori and everyone else is ok. take care and stay safe. God bless.

 

Good day
@moyra I too find the various health services frustrating in that there is no consistency amongst the way their workers operate. They have been trying to coordinate things over here (and our health system is much the same as yours) but they never seem make all the connections seamless.

Thank you for asking after Sam. She is pretty sore right now. I think she is pushing herself too hard to get back into shape and has pulled some muscles. I have told her no more soil baking until she is comfortable again.

It is cloudy here and supposed to rain all day. The garden will welcome the free water and I have lots to do inside so I am not in the least bothered with it. I do have to go out and do some shopping but I may just put that off until tomorrow. This weekend is our Thanksgiving weekend and I will do my usual turkey dinner etc. It's always a nice meal because so many vegetables are fresh in from local farmers

I hope everyone has a lovely day and do please play safe

 

Good morning everyone, @shiney you certainly have been busy with your entertaining.
@CanadianLori , I hope Sam is feeling a bit better now she is resting. Have a good day everyone, take care and stay safe and well. God bless.
