Yikes Jay- so sorry to hear that, you must be so fed up and run down by now- look after yourself xx

[Florence Fennel]

Hope you're soon feeling better Jay. That's a timely reminder for me to organise a booster, particularly as the decorator says he's never had the vaccine!

Good afternoon, dull but dry today, was at church this morning, OH was out on Thursday and was very tired on Friday, was out yesterday and tired today, so didn't make the church this morning, when I came in she was cleaning the kitchen, fortunately daughter came in and got on to her as she had said she would do it, she then asked what was needing done, so she finished up doing the dusting, it was done the very same way I do it, but evedently it will be so much better than when I do it while doing the dusting OH said she wouldn't be able to do the table, as I sit at it when reading or working on the computer as well as when eating, daughter knows this and when dusting the table she said "this table is covered in crumbs" which of course it wasn't, (I never drop crumbs when eating) she was just stirring it, evedently takes after her mum, now going out to the greenhouse for a wee while, so have a good day and remember to smile

Oh Jay, so sorry to hear you've been ill.
You really are having a tough year.
Hope you feel better soon.

Its dull, with rain and wind.
A definite indoor day.I might make more soup from some bits of veg in the freezer.
It will definitely be pot luck doup.

Have a happy Sunday all.

Sorry to hear you’ve been ill Jay and fingers crossed for a speedy recovery. xx

[Jay22]

Thanks everyone, please get your Covid vaccine. I was due mine the weekend I tested positive so couldn’t get it. Wouldn’t like anyone to go through what I have the last couple of weeks. x

[greenishfing]

Jay, glad to hear that you're on the mend. Look after yourself and wishing you a fast, full recovery.

Morning all.

Chilly last night. Not only birds in the garage last night but one in the barn next to the kitchen. Haven't had this for a few years now, but clearly the bird appreciates the warmth, especially every time we open the kitchen door, more than it is afraid of us coming and going. And rightly so. It's going to get extremely cold by the look of it in early December. The forecasts for the nearby villages are into the minuses and I don't remember that I've ever seen that since we've had internet access at the house. No squabbling birds so far this morning. Probably too busy trying to stay warm and find something to eat.

Loads to do today, so better shake a leg. The dogs have been to wake Mr Snoop up, so he'll be making a coffee soon. Oh, he's just volunteered to light the range. Then coffee. Perfect.

Have a great day, everyone.

Good morning all.
Dull and overcast again today..
Domestics, shopping and a visit to the post office should keep me busy.
Have a good day all.

[greenishfing]

Good morning.

Very wet underfoot, but not raining at the moment, more due later.

I've already been out and picked up my Ikea parcel and a newspaper for Mr GF. I've just noticed I've walked some muck into the house and I can't use the vac at the moment as I washed the filters yesterday and they're still damp.

Elevenses next and then playtime..... putting my Ikea bathroom bench together. It matches the storage box/buffet I bought last week.

Coffee and a bun anyone?

[Nicos]

A bun gf?…ooo, yes please!…I’ve just put the kettle on so that’s perfect timing…ta muchly x

Good afternoon, bright but cool today, had a wee repair job to do at the church hall this morning, then some shopping before making lunch, after that was out the back tidying up a bit, I also had to check the guttering around the conservatory, I had opened a section the other day to drain some water out, so wanted to close this which involved going up ladders, so had to do it without OH seeing me, she was at one end of the house, I was at the other, I am now trying to work out how she knew I was up the ladders, I couldn't see her, I lifted the ladder without any noise yet she asked me what I was doing up the ladders 🤔 wives are uncanny 😒 she actually managed to sleep on her side last night, at this rate she will be able to do the hoovering and dusting in no time, which of course is something I am really trying to encourage, as the walking, stretching and whatever would give her some exercise, I wonder if she knows I am always thinking of her good, right off to make the tea have a good evening
