Feels colder this morning,but the sky looks bright.

I think cleaning upstairs is on the cards today.
Have a good day ladies.

[Gemini]

Good morning Nan2 and everyone else.

I did some of that upstairs cleaning yesterday Nan2.
My reflexologist is coming at 10.30. My ibs, neck, knee, wrist etc etc will be glad!

Not sure what else is on the cards. I would like to see Mary Poppins while it is still on, I suspect OH will want to get on with decorating though.

Have a good one, whatever you do.

Good morning, everyone. Sorry I didn't back on here yesterday. When I got back from the school run both girls needed me (it's lovely to be needed!) - GD2 for cuddles, and GD1 with Maths help. I'm much better at cuddles than Maths, but she was working on Year 4 stuff - she's Year 3. I'll have to do some homework of my own.

Nanto - you won't know yourself with your posh new loo downstairs. I hope it's all finished today. Don't overdo the cleaning.

Clover - your poor lady. That must be so painful.

Enfys - you wonder with hospital appointments sometimes. I'm glad they managed to reinstate P's appointment, and it sounds as though the Consultant was very thorough.

Gem, how frustrating about your DD's key. I keep the various keys to DS2's house on a separate keyring and clip it to mine on the days I'm going over there - but of course, sometimes I forget!! Enjoy your reflexology this morning, and go and enjoy the film - the decorating will wait.

I've got a busy but nice week. Today we're meeting up with ex-colleagues of OH's for coffee and lunch. Tomorrow is housework day (unless something better turns up) and on Friday I'm going with the girls' other granny to choose fabric for our dining room chairs. She's making them for us. We've got nice new foam pads cut to size so they just need covering. Saturday is extra dog training and Sunday might be a day off!

It's raining quite hard here at the moment, but is still very warm for January.

[Gemini]

Daisy,we have decided, OH will do some painting after my reflexologist is gone (My room is upstairs so a bit tricky to paint the stairs while she's here!) Later we will go to the cinema
I have DD1's and auntie's keys on my keyring, and mum's in the glove compartment of my car - I'm not sure why not on my keyring, probably because there are several. If I had to actively remember to take any of them I would probably forget!
Have a nice lunch

[Daisy]

Gem - that sounds like a good compromise - the decorating makes progress and you stil see the film. Enjoy it.

It's nice to get out for lunch sometimes - we don't do it often enough.

I hate loads of keys on my keyring - I only have my car key and my house key on normally. OH always seems to have loads on his keyring, and I'm sure he doesn't even know what half of them are for.

Good morning ladies, just popped in to say I doubt if I will be able to report in before this evening. Drs. appt followed by WI, then I am going to visit a friend in hospital , she has been very very poorly. Probably I will not be back before 4.00. Want to get back before it gets dark, it is a long drive.
Enfys, it sounds to me as if the hospital staff cancelled the wrong appt. I had an appt. last week and an automated voice rang me three times to remind me.

Enjoy the cinema Gemini

[Daisy]

Plant - drive carefully. I'm sure your poorly friend will feel better for having some company. xx

Morning busy ladies , everyone doing something

Hair dresser for me at 10 then shopping , nothing as nice as the Cinema or WI or meeting friends ,
A ordinary day like Nanto catch up with stuff after lunch , ironing fresh bedding as I want to strip bed in the morning

Have a lovely day ladies whatever your doing xxx

[Nanto2girls]

Bedding changed and washed. I was going to hang it out for a blow,but it started raining.
Anyway all cleaned upstairs.

Gem,hope you enjoy the film, and the decorating will get done.
Plant,i'm sure your friend will be pleased to see you.

[Clover]

Hello all.

Well I took the plunge and rang a local tree surgeon about the overhanging trees. I rang on Monday morning and the boss came at 4 o’clock to see what needed doing. He gave a reasonable quote and seemed very professional so I agreed to his firm doing the work. I was surprised when he said they would come Wednesday and sure enough two men arrived about 8.30 this morning. They worked really hard in a difficult area and despite rain coming in had finished by 1p.m I paid them,got my receipt and the job was done.Hopefully though some trees are left the ones I was frightened might fall on the public footpath are gone.

Gem we we saw the Mary Poppins film a couple of weeks ago. I really enjoyed it and thought it was better than it could have been as a sequel.

Plant I hope you’re back safe and sound after your packed day.

Hope everyone else has enjoyed their various outings and chores today.

[WeeGranny]

Spent yesterday popping pills because my back was so sore. Upside was that I had a fantastic night's sleep!
Thankfully today I'm in less pain and more mobile and so far haven't had any painkillers. Touch wood quickly!

Miserable here now the rain has started and getting colder too.

New alarm being fitted tomorrow. It's wireless and I'm not quite sure how it works, but the engineer reckoned we have the only original system left in the area! So maybe it's time we came into the 21st Century.

You'll notice a difference with your trees gone Clover!

Have a good evening everyone x

[Oma]

Ouch WG take your time doing things or you might set it off again .
Clover you will feel better getting them trees done , another weight off your shoulders xxx
Nanto I got my fresh bedding ironed to go on tomorrow too.
Gem did you go to cinema ?

Its become very cold hear , I went to hairdressers this morning and it was quite mild then on way home we popped into Aldi only in there 10 mins came out and the rain was lashing down more like sleet really it was so cold .

Didn't get much sleep last night so lay on the sofa after lunch I usually get about 20 mins but today I slept for hour and half , could have slept on but I forced myself awake or I will get no sleep at all tonight .

[Nanto2girls]

WeeGranny,glad the back wasn't as bad today.
Clover,i bet it looks so different with the trees gone.
New downstairs loo is finished and has been christened.

[Plantaholic]

Visited friend in hospital, journey home bit unpleasant in the rain, I decided to come back on the main road instead of the lanes as it was getting dark and the rain was a nuisance forming puddles.

Be very careful with your back pain Wee Granny

[Daisy]

Plant - much better to stick to the better roads when the weather's that bad.

Nanto - glad your new loo is earning its keep!

Oma - I hope you sleep better tonight.

WeeGranny - I have a lot of sympathy for your poor back. I find it helps if I can get a good night's sleep when mine is bad, but don't try and do too much. Did youmanage to avoid painkillers today?

Gem - didyou enjoy the film?

Clover - that was good service from the tree surgeons, and a weight off your mind. Do your house and garden look lighter now?
