Grandma Chat Space

[Mimi]

Just reporting in a little late I know but I have had a busy day.
I have only just managed to pop on here before I attempt to get some sleep, I had about two hours sleep last night.

As it was a horrible day we decided to put up the Christmas decs. OH also got Rudolf the wooden reindeer out of the shed and place him on the patio. Also our doorstep Father Christmas is sitting outside on the front door step.
its surprising how long that all takes to do but what isn't surprising is the fact that my back has 'gone again with all the bending and lifting
But on the bright side GS, aged 4,informed DD that I am 15 and she is 50

Enfys its good to see you x

[Plantaholic]

Daisy, that is priceless that Cooper has a comforter.

[Nanto2girls]

Good morning,no frost,but by heck it cold out there this morning.

Mimi,what a compliment from GS.

Round to in laws later,will call for their papers on the way.

[Gemini]

Good morning Nan2, and all who follow.

Clover , what a lovely social day, even if by phone
Aww, well Cooper needs his special blanket next time he sleeps over with Grandma, Daisy!
I hope you slept better last night Mimi. How youthful you are!

This afternoon DD1 and I planned a walk before I do school pick up for her niece and nephew. It is forecast rain all day, so I have texted her to suggest meeting at the Designer Outlet for coffee instead. We can go into each other's houses for childcare, so it's no different really, and the food court there is very open, and technically it is a shopping area! Well, whatever, if she agrees we shall go

On the way to pick up GD and GS2 I will be dropping off my mum's tree and decorations.

Have a good day ladies.

[Daisy]

Good morning ladies. We have a lovely sunrise this morning, so fingers crossed it stays dry. We had enough rain yesterday to last for a month.

Mimi - you must have impressed your GD with your youthful demeanour. Be careful you don't do more damage to your back, though. xx

Nanto - It's not too cold down here, but the graphic is pretty.

Gem - It seems silly if you can go into each other houses for childcare but shouldn't have a coffee in the house with the children's mummies. I hope you can meet up for a coffee. Your mum will be pleased to have her tree and decorations - a little bit of home from home for Christmas.

I'm not sure what I'm doing today. I ought to go into the village for a bit of shopping - I'll see how it goes, but in the meantime I'd better get on with doing the bins! See you later.

Morning ladies and our very young Grannie Mimi

Its rained since yesterday quite heavy last night , now its that fine mist and very dark ,

Just had our Asda delivery so that's all done and put away ,
I have my Haircut at 11.30 , might start to look less like a Yeti

Gem your Mum will be pleased with her own decorations I bet , I hope your DD agrees to coffee in the food court its too wet for a walk xx

Daisy you will have to remember Coopers Blankie next time , they are funny arnt they ,

I see the Queens favourite Dog has died she only has 1 now .

Nanto hope in laws are keeping well xx

Clover all them phone calls your arm and ear must be aching

Keep well ladies i will pop back later xx

[Plantaholic]

Another bad night but lets not talk about it.

I was going shopping with GD1, whose birthday it is today. I am not sure where she is, the cabin window is open. It is miserable out.

Gemini, hope you get to have your coffee with DD, nice to do something normal. I expect your mum will love to have her Christmas decs.

Clover, how lovely for you to have all those phone calls.

I need to go and have a shower so will pop back later.

[Glammanana]

It is miserable here today and I have not got any energy to do anything really I had a bad night with this stupid back pain and was awake from 3am until about 6.30am so will probably have a short nap later on this afternoon. I will catch up with everyone tomorrow x

[Daisy]

Oh dear - bad nights almost seem the norm at the moment. Plant and Glamm - I hope you can have a nana nap this afternoon. Glamm - I think when you feel like that - no energy - it's your body saying 'give me a break and rest'. Sending hugs xxx

[Oma]

Glamm . Plant , lack of sleep is awful , people say you get used to it and in a way you do but you never get used to feeling drained all day ,
A nana nap is a big help ,
Why is it pain is always worse at night

[Oma]

It is as dark as night here and lashing down with rain , what a horrible day ,
coming out of Hairdressers B had parked over other side of carpark so I had to make a dash for the car and its really cold .

Not a day to be out in one of those days to put your feet up with a hot drink and watch rubbish telly ,
That's what DD was intending to do today as she has a rare day off

[Nanto2girls]

Clover, lovely for you to have the phone calls.

Another one that had a bad night,but as plant says,lets not talk about it.

We have had snow for most of the day,but its stopped now.

Had a text from the clinic to remind me about my hypertension appointment on Monday.
Said i must not be early.

[WeeGranny]

Woke to snow this morning, but it gradually turned to sleet as the day went on and it's getting really cold.

Went and picked up the Christmas tree and went for a drive just for a change of scenery. The countryside looked bleak.

Another one who had a bad night. Leg cramp, coughing fit and I could hear OH snoring in the other bedroom. Thank goodness I wasn't lying next to him!

Hope we all have abetter night tonight!

[Daisy]

It's been cold here today, but only light showers. We took Eva to the paddock this afternoon and it was 6C. Brrrrr...... - again. Although the heating's on, I'm still cold this evening. Bed and a hot water bottle call.

I started writing Christmas cards this morning. When we got back from our walk I thawed out with a cup of tea and a home made scone, and fell asleep. But I've since spent over an hour portioning up dog food, plus cooking dinner, so I'm more than ready for more sleep!

I hope everyone else has a better night as well.

[Nanto2girls]

Good morning. Its cold again,but i don.t think its as cold as yesterday.
Had heavy rain last night.

Supermarket shopping this morning for us. Got a long list for us,and need quite a few things for in laws.
Hubby going to do a couple of jobs for Mam and Dad this afternoon,so i suppose i'll go with him.

I slept a bit better last night,so that was a bit of a bonus.
