Good morning all, dull but dry and its 13 degs

Sleep for me must be quiet and black dark.
I once had a ticking clock and had to banish it from the bedroom.
I felt stressed just hearing the sound of it.

Nicos, you didnt say what great bargains you got at the market.

Snoop, like watching a kettle boil, whnyou stop looking for the rain it will appear,

Plenty to do today, just dont know whre to start,
Have a good day all,

Great bargains Nicos. We didn't venture into the market, but we did go for coffee and cake.
Biggest surprise today was that my GG insisted she was buying my glasses , as I have always bought hers! She is now a qualified Orthodontic Technician and wanted to treat me! Eye Test showed no change in my vision, so no need for new glasses and the Eye Test was free for me because of my age! No change for her eyesight either, so she just paid for her eye test and my OCT scan
I do have cataracts though, so have to have my next test in a year instead of 2

Good afternoon.

Mr GF has now got a rather colourful bruise on his face from his surgery. It looks as if somebody has given him a thump.....as long as nobody thinks it's me! Still quite swollen, but no pain.

I got three texts from the doctor's surgery for Mr GF, his brother and I this afternoon with links to book our Covid jabs online. I managed to get my fingers to work fast enough to book us all in for the same time and date, 11 days after our flu jabs. There was one year where we all had them on different days at different locations but I think at the time we were just grateful to get them.

Nicos, those bargains sound great.

Snoop, Missy (predictive text keeps trying to call her Messy) looks so innocent and adorable.
