Yawn Yawn, Wakey Wakey..!! MK 5

Good morning Loli and everyone

Loli I haven't been out yet as I have just got up but it is already getting light and the birdies are doing their thing with the dawn chorus so i know that spring is just around the corner:D

Glad that your chooks are ok and that Mr Foxy didn't get them in your dream:D

Hope your working days go off ok and that you have an enjoyable four days off

We have had a lovely week together and it has been really nice spending quality time together:D

We had another pleasant walk round our local water but the levels are still very low and old shrubby type trees are now exposed so we got some photos for prosperity before the rain comes and fills it back up:D

Hope everyone has a good day

 

I think we all must be getting back into a routine again. Done all my housework and washing this morning and the sheets are out blowing on the line. It is not that warm out there but the sunshine is lovely.

Have a good day everyone

 

Just ordered a new wheelbarrow so I can get on and shift all the jute bags of soil I used for growing veg in last year. Not sure I am going to reuse them this year or not. Lots of work to do in the garden. I have neglected it lately. Oh well it is going to be wet and windy tomorrow so wont be doing much outside except walking the dog.

 

Evening everyone.
Moyra I think you are right- I have been sorting out here too but OH has just started fitting us a new kitchen. I am so impatient so I am off out all day tomorrow
I have neglected the garden a bit too but I don't like the cold!!

 

Good morning everyone,

Its cold here this morning, currently -30 with the windchill and squalls coming off the Bay!!

Was supposed to go to Toronto today, but thats now tomorrow.

 

Hello Everyone,

What a morning it has been. The sun came out briefly a little while ago but it has come over black again.:(

Jazmine, My son is a floor and wall tiler and I want to do my kitchen but you know what they say about workmen and the trade they are in - their own is the last to get done!! :fingerdrum:

Hope everyone else is surviving this rotten weather! Roll on Spring!!

 

Good afternoon everyone..
-30 PennyStay warm....
Hope you are all keeping snuggled upit's awfull out there....
Moyra ,how does Amber cope with this weather....my 2 have been little angels all day for a change:Dthey really don't like it when it's windy so have been playing inside with thier toys...they will still get thier nightime walk though....but if it gets worse out there then maybe not as there are lots of things flying about and it's quite scary.
Hope you have got rid of that horrible cold KandyI also hope Woo isn't flying around in this weather too.
wishing the Shineys and jazmine and everyone well....stay safe

 

Good morning everyone,
With the weather being so horrible yesterday i decided to take the trimmings down...i didn't really notice before they went up but it now looks like some decorating needs doing....i think me and Mr Lolimac need to get our fingers out and make a start as i don't want to waste precious gardening time indoors decorating.....
Hope everyone has managed to stay safe from those winds but i understand there is more to come:gaagh:
I'm taking my mum for blood tests this morning have to be there before 9am so best get cracking....
Take care everyone

 

Morning Everyone, Shiney that sounds like a job and a half you have on there with the fencing. That is a time when a man needs some friends.

Amber still insists on her three walks a day. Steve says I have made a rod for my own back by giving in to her when she whines to go for a walk. As he says all she wants is to get out there and sniff around and see if there are any other dogs around. But amazingly she usually wants to do her toileting so how can I deny her. Obviously feeding her too much if she wants to go that many times a day. It is helping my legs to walk but I cannot pretend it doesn't hurt whether it is my ankles, feet or knees they can all be quite painful but it does keep me moving and that seems to be more important that after all was a big sway in getting another dog as well as the love that they give of course.

I am still urging Steve to give me a hand and give the kitchen a bit of a paint up. Was going to cough up for new tiles but I'll leave that to the landlady she has done 's*d' all in the 16 years I have been here.

Have a good day all and stay safe in this wind and rain.

 

Good morning everyone,

Its another cold morning here...currently -15.

I'm off to Toronto shortly, so have a great day everybody.

 

It's a shame i don't live nearby Shiney,i'd have loved to have given you a hand...you could grow some sloes along the fence line...i know they take time to grow though.....Mmm venison and sloe gin ...two of my favorites:D
Moyra i'm sorry you suffer with your joints,the stress walking dogs puts on them is more than people realise....but hopefully a lovely warm spring and summer is on it's way so it should soothe the aches....having said that my mum suffers more in hot weather
Sorry i'm not being very helpful am i:DOH:

 

Hello everyone,

Well I have a very quick appointment for laser eye surgery next Tuesday to safeguard against any further damage from glaucoma. Then I have my diabetes renal eye scan on the 26th and hopefully then I should be ok for another year visually wise.

I had another bout of gout this morning had difficulty getting my shoe on to take Amber for her walk. I took lots of painkillers and managed eventually to get my shoe on and hobble her round the block for her walk. That was my fault I have been taking the tablets to prevent gout but I made a mistake and enjoyed a tangerine. Who would think one tangerine could upset the system that way. When will I ever learn.:DOH:

Hope Kandy you are recovering at last from that nasty cough and cold. Hope WOO is ok as we haven't seen him for a while, hope he is not overdoing things.

Shiney, you take care trying to do that fencing on your own with friends' help. Sounds like a big job.

Lolimac Amber loves being outdoors she doesn't seem to bother much about the wind although she is not keen on the rain. I think she needs a playmate she gets fed up with me being on here and her wanting to play all the time. Better go play with her.

Take care everyone and have a good day!
