[Mimi]

Just popping by for a quick hello. Hope everyone is well.
Been busy today, I have only just come indoors We went to down this morning and we have been tidying up the garden in the sunshine. It’s gone a bit chilly now but it was so nice to have a dry day.


Anyone heard from Libra today I hope things are still improving for her DD

[Plantaholic]

Very sad to say goodbye to a loved pet Zizi but the new puppies sound lovely, love the names but definitely not Clive.

Pleased to hear they are making a great effort to understand why your DD's sodium level are so high Libra. Hope you find her a better again today. The washing sounds horrendous. Are you still planning to go home for a bit Libra.

Hope the Migraine has cleared Oma.

Well we are having a week, called to give GS4 his birthday present and found my son was not well, although on the mend. GD1 is feeling a bit better but doesn't sound it. Baby E has a temperature and the future Groom has a scratchy throat. They need putting in a bag and given a shake., just hope they are okay on the day. Weather forecast looks a bit dodgy. I am taking my two GD's to have a tan this evening, must find some old towels for the car seats. I am also so angry, someone has left a paint scrape on the rear bumper of my car whilst I was in Waitrose. I am hoping it will clean off.

[Gemini]

Aww, always sad to lose a family pet Zizi. As my cats are old, I will have to face it at some point. My OH's niece has a baby named Cooper! More suited to a dog, IMHO!
All those poorly people need to get better, Plant!

Sun still shining here

[Gemini]

Good night all, off to bed to rest up for Diggerland tomorrow

[Oma]

Well headache has gone but feel drained although I cant sleep again

Plant hope everyone is ok for the wedding poor things they will all be worried about it now I bet ,

[Nanto2girls]

Good morning ladies,sun just coming up.

ZIZI, sad when a family pet dies.

WG, glad Auntie had a nce funeral.

Plant, hope everyone feels better really soon.

Oma,hope you are feeling better now.

Went to see my friend yesterday,and had a good natter.
She has her reconstruction operation on the 17th, same day as we go away.

Off to in laws later. No cooking to do,fish and chip day.

Hairdresser coming at 2.

Gem, hope you all enjoy Diggerland.

Hope the weather is as nice as it was yesterday.

Feeling quite peckish now.

[Enfys]

Lovely day here again 🌞.

plant and Oma, hope everyone is feeling better and you are too Oma.

Have to go out this morning to pick up a parcel that I missed whilst we were out yesterday and a quick bit of shopping for salad stuff for the weekend. I feel the need for fresh green stuff, even though P can’t eat much of it at the moment. Then hopefully gardening later, fingers crossed. Have a good day everyone 🌞

[Gemini]

Oma, I think you and B need a little break even a couple of days away. You have had so many worries over B, you aren't sleeping, and the damned migraines too. Book a little break xxx
Nan2, the sun was out here too, but it is clouding over. Sun and cloud forecast for today I think.

OH fell over whilst carrying out or recycling boxes today. She is OK but has skinned her knees She was worrying, as she fell that if she broke her arm we wouldn't be able to go to Diggerland!!
We are meeting the others there at 11. I will have to give birthday boy his tractor tomorrow, as we won't be going to their house (and they will never fit it in the car) but will take his cards and balloon today.

Have a good day everyone.

[Daisy]

Good Friday morning everyone. I had a computer nightmare on Firefox this morning while using Glitter Graphics - It's happened once before, but I can't remember how I sorted it out, and haven't got time at the moment to try! I did manage to wish Gem's GS2 happy birthday - just about!

There seem to be a lot of poorly people about again, do take things easy, ladies. Plant - yes, put them all in a bg and shake them up - they can't be ill for the wedding. xx

Oma - hope you're feeling better as the day goes on. xx

Libra - fingers crossed T's sodium levels are still coming down.

Gem - enjoy your digger day! I'm sure the birthday boy will. Is OH ok?

Qwerty - enjoy your outing with DD.

I'm hoping the weather stays dry for those who want to get out in the garden.

Zizi - you were wise not to offer to look after the 2 puppies. One puppy is a handful, two are a full-time job. I hope mummy and daddy are prepared!!! If it's any help when we had Rusty and Clyde as puppies, the first thing we did was to teach them their own name. We'd call, say, Rusty and ignore Clyde if he came as well and visa versa. I then realised using a hand signal helped too, so we always used the right hand for signals to Rusty and the left to Clyde. Wish the family luck from me!!!

We're supposed to be going over to DS2's to build the new beds that have arrived for their DDs, but my back is really painful this morning. Will see how things are when I've had a shower.

[Plantaholic]

Daisy your back is telling you to rest and Oma I do hope you can get a good nights sleep soon.

Gemini, I hope you all enjoy your visit to Diggerland, I can't believe your GS2 is two years old.

Hairdresser coming at 10.30 and I have a nail job at 2.30, nothing else planned except to pack a small case. GD1 still feeling a bit poorly although she looks well after the fake tan.

The sun is trying to peep through, don't know what the forecast is, frightened to look.

[Grauntie Mag]

Good moaning each.
All achey people take it easy, all poorly people do the same, all people on outings enjoy yourselves and Plant, enjoy the getting ready bit. Did you have a fake tan too?
Yesterday I had the three GSs. We spent the day in the garden doing jobs. They planted the garlic, helped put the bean supports in place and sowed the beans direct as well as some in pots to take home. They tidied up the dead leaves etc. Little O dug a ‘pond’ and joined in with seed sowing. I think I may have some surprises in the flower beds.😆

[Oma]

Morning ladies ,
Gem hope you have a lovely time today , tell S to take more water with her whiskey
Plant you will look all Glam

Daisy don't put to much strain on your back you will end up unable to stand never mind build beds xx
Enfys I'm the same with Cabbage I get a real craving for it ,
Nanto enjoy your Fish & Chips with in laws xx

Well I managed a few hours and woke feeling refreshed so I set to and have scrubbed downstairs within a inch of its life ,
Even pulled out the Fridge and then the Freezer , my goodness the muck under them was disgraceful
Storm at a party at Doggy day care and Josh still in bed so had a shower and now I'm having a sit down and a cup of tea before he wants his Breakfast or should that be Brunch at this hour of the day ,.

[Qwerty]

Morning folk glad to hear your feeling top of the morning today Oma although I didn’t know you had a migraine I was up and at it yesterday probably missed all sorts
Gem enjoy diggerland hope you’ve got your wellies on , happy birthday to the owner of a tractor , hope S is over the shock it does shake you up falling
Daisy you would be the first to tell me to take it easy, another night with the mattress on the floor won’t hurt 😔
Enfys I can’t believe you crave lettuce 😱
Plant it’s best to be ill the week before the wedding and not during , hopefully they will be ok by tomorrow, enjoy your pampering I adore long nails 💅
Nanto I have all three next week but wouldn’t let them lose in the garden though I’m guessing yours are older , I have phsyched myself up for next week got organised as much as I can 👩👧👦
We had a lovely day yesterday at Lotheron Hall it’s a small house to look round but very much child friendly, they were allowed to dress up and touch certain things, draw and colour , it belonged to the Gascogne family of which Bamber Gascogne is a descendant . They have the most gorgeous penguins and I fell in love with a Tipar I think it was called a member of the horse family allegedly looked like a cross between an ant eater and a large pig, Lunch on DD a ride on the zip wire not me of course, well worth the visit if your ever in Yorkshire
Today I WILL do my ironing tidy round and food shop bearing in mind I am catering for 3 under 8 !

[Nanto2girls]

Anyone feeling under the weather rest up.

Oma,not having dinner with inlaws,we just drop theirs off.
Pleased you are feeling better.

Plant,not long to go now, hope the wedding party are all better.

Qwerty, never been to Lotherton Hall, it sounds a good place to visit.

Gem, hope OH is ok.Glad there were no broken bones.

[ZIZI]

I am just back from the osteopath, my goodness that was quite a painful session.

Daisy - the puppy household is the most chaotic I have ever known and they take their chaos wherever they go! I am sure two puppies are not going to make much difference to them. Son says that Kiki puppy is going to forget how to use her legs as Sadie carries her everywhere.

Where is Diggerland? I remember seeing a Diggerland in Essex when I was working at school in Colchester and Southend but I am sure that isn’t the one you are going to.

Off to clean the bathroom and hall now, husband working until 4.30pm, miss him as he has been off for two weeks. Never mind he will work Saturday and Sunday then off again for four days.
