Chat Away

[Gemini]

Good morning everyone.

Pretty graphic this morning Nan2.
Grauntie, thinking ahead, especially in garden terms, is a good thing!
Although chaotic sounding Daisy, I bet it was good to see all the GC, and the birthday girl on her birthday. We watched Call The Midwife yesterday afternoon as well.
Mum was on good form yesterday, well and seemed slightly less confused than of late. She didn't seem at all sad to have missed Boxing Day, which was a good thing.

Today we are meeting up with the Omas for lunch This would have been planned for sometime into next year, but as poor Oma was so gutted to miss out on our northern group Christmas meet at the last minute, we thought at least we could meet over the Christmas period!

Have a good day ladies.

[Nanto2girls]

Gem, pleased mum was on good form.
Enjoy your meet up with the Oma's.

[Oma]

Morning everyone ,

Love the graphic Nanto

Gem so looking forward to seeing you

Daisy sounds a busy but lovely day I bet you were tired though

GM I would have mine down too if I had my way

How are we all ? hope everyone and OH's are at least ok xx

[Plantaholic]

Have a lovely time with the meet-up Gem, Oma and partners.

I felt really washed out yesterday, managed to do a food shop and apart from that I just sat around. Nothing planned for today, I keep forgetting what day it is.

Nanto, pleased to hear your Fil got up, hope he is feeling more positive.

[Gemini]

Plant, Christmas, and especially the run up to, it is tiring! Who knows what day it is at this time of year?!

Have a lovely feet-up day.

[Daisy]

Good morning, everyone. I love the graphic, Nanto. I hope FIL continues to improve.

Gem and Oma - have a lovely time today. Your OHs, too. xx

Plant - you're always very busy, so I'm not surprised you sometimes need a quiet day to put your feet up. I hope you feel better today, and your SIL's mother, too.

Gem - it was lovely that your mum was on good form. It must be quite reassuring for you when things go so well, and helps to make up for the harder days. xx

Mimi - how did your family gathering go? I hope it was good even though not as large as you'd hoped. It's so difficult when many people work irregular or so-called unsocial hours.

I caught up o sleep last night - didn't wake up till nearly 10am! Fortunately we've got nothing planned for today, except some clearing up we didn't finish yesterday.

Have a lovely day everyone - and Gem and Oma - behave yourselves!

[Qwerty]

Afternoon ladies I have just emerged from xmas after a very busy time cooking entertaining for 3 full on days, I’m knackered and ready to enjoy my own personal Xmas today, everybody seems to have enjoyed themselves.
Oma and Gem enjoy your double dates 😬
Twins gone on their first cinema visit to see Frozen 2 and they are off to their static tomorrow till ew Years day
Tomorrow OH has said he will take me out for coffee and cake funnily enough there is a sale on at our nearest garden centre at the same time 🥴

[Gemini]

Nice to see you Qwerty. Family time is lovely, but so is some breathing space
That sleep will have done you good Daisy.

We had a lovely time with Oma and Mr Oma, as always. Mr Oma looking very well.
OH and I were late though A combination of a couple of phone calls delaying us (my mum, plus the garage OH had left a message with earlier phoning back) Added to that I didn't realise that OH thought we were meeting at 12.30 not 12, so we hadn't allowed enough time even without the phone calls, but we would have been less late!

[Oma]

Not too late only almost 1 hour but you got there in the end and it was worth the wait

Qwerty you need to lay down in a darkened room after all that , I hope the twins enjoy their first cinema visit ,

Daisy you must have needed the sleep if you are not planning anything tomorrow try another lay in xx

Plant how do you feel now ? I think we all are unsure what day is what they all seemed jumbled up don't they ,

After we left Gem & S we were only 2 miles away from our Martins so we went to visit them for a few hours too , so all in all a lovely day

Tired but very happy , seeing Gem made up for missing York , I do love meeting up with them , me and Gem chat about girly things B & S talk cars

[Nanto2girls]

Omas and Gems, pleased you had a lovely get together.

Qwerty,hope you get a couple of restful days,and you Daisy.

Not been too busy here for us.

[Daisy]

It feels as though most of us are slowly winding down and relaxing after all the Christmas socialising. Why can it be so tiring just sitting chatting to people!

Gem and Oma - I'm glad you managed your get together, even if it was a bit delayed! Good to hear B is looking so well. xx

Qwerty - you must be exhausted! Good that you and OH are going out for coffee and cake tomorrow. You never know what bargains might be on offer!



We've had an incredibly lazy day, now I don't know whether I'm just feeling lazy, or need a breath of fresh air and a walk round the block. I know which Eva would choose!

[Nana]

I've been in bed an hr+. My family went home around 2pm. Boxing day was lovely with my siblings & just adults for most part of the day.

Yesterday we went to YWP & took party food, flasks of coffee & hot choc + birthday cake to have a birthday picnic for GS3. DD2 & my other two GC joined us there. I said there weren't many little children who have a zebra look over the fence at their party. They were all excited & blew off some steam.

I am running on empty but I'm not doing anything next week, so I can rest. Clover & Glam are on my mind. Sending love to them.xx

[Lizzie48]

Good morning, frosty here at the moment. A lot of loud bangs when I went to bed, fireworks are allowed! I read of a young boy spending €3,000 on them, how a boy of 18 has that money to burn I do not know.

Pleased you all had a good Christmas, getting back to normal life now. Qwerty, the sales are on in our local garden centre, very busy on Boxing day according to what I read, I called in yesterday as one of my Christmas lights got broken whilst packing them in, they are in Christmas balls so went looking for one, didn't find what I wanted so will wait until next Christmas, there is a new coffee corner there, been there almost a year and it is the first time I have seen it!

[Oma]

Morning ladies ,
Lizzie two of mine broke too , to be honest I didn't realise they were glass and I have no idea how it happened I just saw glass shards under the tree , I have an idea it was the Dog sticking his face in the tree

How is everyone today ?

Clover /Glamm how are you doing ?

Enfys how is P and yourself with all the Christmas bustle ?

Daisy a lazy day wont harm you never stop so the rest will do you good .

Nana like the sound of you enjoying your time with Siblings That Picnic sounded just what the children needed

Im off for a shower now , we visiting our Friends D&J for coffee at 10 in their new flat , will catch up later xxx

[Enfys]

Good morning. Have been awake on and off since 3.30, all sorts of things going round in my head, not nice things either. I seem to have come right down again and am dreading what 2020 will bring us. P seems very tired at the moment and I think I’m looking for things to worry about.

There is more but I think I’ll put it on YEO.
