What are you Doing Today?

[Oma]

It’s still foggy here ,

Daisy
sugar goes everywhere , you think you have got it all then it crunches underfoot or you get something out and it’s sticky ,
At least the grapes and Tomatoes will be sweet 😁

Lizzie we are missing a small wreath I used to put on my table , I’ve had it years but we have looked in all the Christmas tubs in the loft , under the bed , even in the cases in the loft.it’s no where to be found , Im now wondering if it got mixed up with rubbish we threw out last year when I was packing everything away 🙄

Plant
Enjoy your games afternoon , do many turn up for it ?
I meant to ask did you ever get your bunting finished ,and your table runner I can’t remember if you did or not .

I started putting a few Christmas bits out this morning and ended up doing the whole lot Tree and everything is up now .
Still some outside lights to go out but they go around my porch and we are having a electric car charger fitted on the 14 th .
They going over the porch roof with the cables so will have to wait till they do that ,

Storm has had two small plates of chicken today and kept them down so fingers crossed he’s getting better.

We have a covered outside socket on the patio,hubby put the new on at the the other side of house.

Crikey,Oma,6 years, where does the time go.
Glad Storm has managed to eat something. Hopefully hes on the mend now.
Tell B,he's not the only one with a cold. I've got one,but i have had worse colds.

Oh dear, get better coldy people, (B and Nan2!)

Daisy, I can imagine the mess from that sugar.

Good to hear Storm is slowly getting his appetite back Oma. It bet it's lovely and festive at yours now.

What a good bargain Lizzie.

Plant, no rush to get your Christmas decorations up (as Daisy will tell you!) Do them when it suits you.

A good aqua session as always this morning. Nice chat with my friend afterwards over coffee. I miss chatting to friends and haven't done so for while (apart from all of you )
I was going to write some more Christmas cards this afternoon but I couldn't be bothered!

[Lizzie48]

I have just got a message from my swimming friend, the specialist has just phoned her and it is all clear!!! I bet it was a long day for them waiting!!

[Gemini]

Oh, lovely news Lizzie

[Oma]

Brilliant news Lizzie 😁

Gem
Still lots of time to write cards in between postal strikes that is 🙄😁

[Daisy]

Lizzie, that is such good news - an early Christmas present. xx The chopping board was a good bargain!

Oma, the sugar problem is even worse than it might have been. The day before yesterday I dropped an empty jam jar on the kitchen floor, and despite sweeping, hoovering and cleaning I still think every little 'crunch' could be a fragment of glass! Pleased to hear Storm is getting better.

Nanto, I hope your cold is soon better. Did you get the lights?

Gem, is is nice to be able to sit down with a coffee and chat with friends again. Glad you enjoyed your aqua class.

Plant, how was your games afternoon? As Gem says, plenty of time to get your decorations up. The best reason for doing them early is that you are excused all housework once you've decorated the tree, etc.

Eva was a little star at dog training this afternoon. In addition to the two new dogs there was one who hadn't been for a few weeks, and he was a bit jumpy, but she ignored him. It was quite hard work with lots of heel work, then we played with toys and rolling a big cable drum. She loves that and bashes it along the hall so fast I have to run to keep up with her to stop it bashing into the radiator at the end of the room. Then flyball, and she was too tired to gallop over the jumps at her usual breakneck speed! Still it was a good session.

Despite postal strikes I must start on the cards to go abroad tomorrow. I think.

[Nanto2girls]

Good morning and its December.

Future DIL's birthday today.

Daisy, we are going for new lights on Saturday.
SIS in law and hubby are going with us,but they can't make it till Saturday.
Well done to Eva,bless her.

My cold isn't too bad,i've had worse.

I usually post the Christmas cards today,but due to strike action,they will be posted tomorrow.

[Oma]

Morning ladies ,off to MILs so dashing , I really don’t want B to go he's full of cold but insisting so quicker we get there quicker we will get back ,
Will pop back later xx

[Gemini]

Good morning everyone

Keep warm and get rid of that cold Nan2.

Well done to Eva, Daisy

Today I am going to see DD3 and baby. My Christmas present to OH was delivered there and I have waited until there was a time I could go over without her. Golf today so the idea opportunity. I am giving myself a week off seeing my mum (who I saw on Thursday and Saturday last week) I have been a bit overloaded emotionally, so the rest will be good.
A Christmas meal at the golf club tonight, so I will be home alone with a meal for 1

[Gemini]

Our posts crossed Oma. Get better soon B!

[Lizzie48]

Good morning, very cold here, a slight frost, I must get my scarf out for my early morning rides! I am going in the car to visit my friend and get her flowers on the way, I need to get air in the tyres so will do that as well.

Oma, I hope B is soon feeling better, so many with flu and colds here at the moment.

Gem, enjoy your visit to DD3.

Daisy, you and Eva both seem to enjoy the dog training. A new neighbour has a rescue dog, he is so well trained, she goes to take him to the woods twice a day so that he can run loose.

Nanto, a very happy birthday to your future DIL.

My filter coffee machine decided to stop working last night, I have another one as spare but the coffee isn't as warm so I will go to the village this afternoon and see if I can find one, otherwise I will order one on line. I like my filter coffee early mornings.

[Gemini]

Lizzie, like you I need my filter coffee in the mornings

[Glammanana]

Good Morning ladies,
I got a nice good-morning call through my letter box this morning at 8amish my little GD calling me to say Hello Nana her daddy DS1 had been to collect her to take her to school and she "needed" to see me before she went off.

Its frosty here this morning with just a touch of fog about you can hear the fog horns on The Mersey from my house there is a Cruise ship over in Liverpool Docks it looks like a big one this time.

This morning I have done all my housework early and am now sitting down with a nice cup of tea catching up with everyones news.I have a roast chicken in the oven for tea tonight when little one comes for her tea also have made a jelly for her which she loves with icecream.

Hoping everyone keeps warm and well off to attempt some ironing now not too much to d mainly bedding so not to bad really.

Catch up soon Glamma x

Good Thursday morning everyone. It's been cold overnight and is now misty. I've still got tender plants to wrap up for the winter, and I must get on with that job.

Oma, poor B. He probably should be staying in in the warmth, so I hope MIL appreciates you going over there today. Give him a hug from me.

Gem, sending hugs to you as well. You've got a lot to deal with at the moment, so it's wise to take it a bit easier this week. Have lovely cuddles with baby E and relax. xxx

Lizzie, oh dear, no coffee would be awful! I hope you find a new filter machine ok. We've got one of those pod thingies which make a lovely cup of coffee but I felt a bit guilty about the environmental side of them. We've now found a company who recycle the pods so the coffee tastes even better. Your neighbour's dog sounds lovely and I bet he loves being able to run round in the woods.

Nanto, sorry for some reason I thought the light shopping was yesterday! I'd forgotten your SIS and her OH couldn't shop until Saturday. Even mild colds can hang around at this time of year, so keep warm. The post is all over the place. We're still waiting for something that was sent first class on 26 November, and I've had a message saying my new mouse will be delayed and they can't give a date for it. Thank goodness I can still use the old one, with a bit of coaxing.
