Yawn Yawn Wakey Wakey 2020

Good Day
I laid in for a bit reading a book on my Kobo. I think it's pretty good who dun it because I'm 3/4 the way through and I've still got three suspects in mind, or else I'm becoming dim witted.

Checked my seedlings and made sure everything was watered and whilst down there threw load number one in the clothes washer. I've decided that this morning I will start pulling the furniture out from the walls up here on the second floor and do a thorough vacuuming and only then have the main floor to get up to snuff tomorrow during my show. I believe I can get that done and be ready to head to Fabricland for their 50% of sale. I'll try to leave my temptation, for more fabric stash, at home and only buy the threads I need. Right. Like that's going to happen

Have a good day and please play safe

 

But what if you haven't got a landline @shiney.....have you no family to worry about!!!

As I've said none of our son's have landlines but they also keep theirs on ( and no we didn't ask them to, they are just using their sensible heads) .....just in case they are needed by their ageing parents!!

And in this 24/7 world that we are now in, where would you draw the line.....even over here in the UK there are thousands sleeping during the day!

Switch your phone off?.....yep good news could be waiting for you, but so could avoidable bad news too.

 

Upsydaisy that’s exactly why I do leave mine on, one because I use it as my alarm, two in case my parents need help, three I remember a few years ago my brother got sent to hospital in the night after being beaten up walking home off two men he had never met, so you never know when they will need you, it’s not a nice world out there any more

 

Glad you're enjoying your book Lori, I get totally absorb in my reading tool

Normally, as already mentioned, I read ebooks and in fact have one on the go at the moment. However this week to occupy my evenings I started on another knitting project and decided to download an audio book from my Library to help make my time even more enjoyable.......don't know why I didn't think of doing this before, it's brilliant!!! Almost finished the book!!

 

Totally understandable @Flumpy , I would hate to feel disconnected from my family.

Much better to be safe than living with being sorry.:bigthumb:

 

You're very fortunate not to have been disturbed at night @shiney . Like @Flumpy we had a son and his friend needing picking up from A&E at 2am. And had to contact family members, some via mobile at 1am so as to share last words with my Mum.

Like you when I was holiday I would never consider telling my staff where or how to contact me as the said people were hired because they were competent to use their initiative.

 

I agree @shiney that a lot of us oldies do still have landlines, I'm just pointing out that times are changing, even my nieces who are married and have children haven't got one.

We have the unlimited deals too and likewise our alarm system is via the line, and personally I wouldn't give it up.

It was just your comment of 'why don't you switch your phone off at night ? . Not everybody can, that's all.

 

Hi all, just got back from my mums birthday meal, feeling very full now, I just want to sleep

 

What did you have @Flumpy ??

 

Steak and ale pie with veg and chips and rich gravy, it was yummy

 

Sounds yum, can't beat a good pie on a gloomy winters day.
