Chitchat thread #24

Good morning all.

It's still a tad chilly here. I'm just waiting for the heating to warm things up before I head into the kitchen in search of coffee.

....... Coffee couldn't wait any longer.

The magpies still seem to be checking out all the nearby trees this morning searching for the perfect nesting site. I've put some corn on the cob to defrost for the birds. It can go outside shortly. Last week when I didn't get any frozen corn on the cob with my online shop, I decided to grab some in a different (A**a) smallish supermarket. I opened the bag last night. It is absolutely awful. Not sweet and very tough! I'll put two bags on my online shopping list next week. I don't want to run out again in a hurry.

I have also just decided that I missed the smell and taste of homegrown tomatoes so much last year that I'm going to grow some on my large, south facing, lounge windowsill..... just a couple of plants. ... maybe sungold.

Morning

I remember pancake day being like a never ending conveyer belt, by the time I'd finished cooking every one else's I'd gone of the idea of eating one.

Nicos i think we all feel like that going to the dentist, my old dentist once said he'd be a bit concerned if anyone enjoyed coming to see him.

enjoy your day

Afternoon all.

Sorry for being so late. Poor weather is affecting our internet connection.

Will have a potter around the Vine and catch you later.

Have a great rest of the day, everyone.

It's a lovely day here, very sunny, but the wind is chilly. I've been out in the garden with Frank. He never tires of retrieving his ball - it's me that's cream crackered! It's so nice to see the washing drying outside too. I hope they're not late picking him up today, I could do with a rest

We sat out and had ‘drinkies’ at 4.30 pm….with a jumper on and in full sun it was delightful

Aww lottie
So sorry you are feeling down. Not at all surprising in reality - and not helped by emotional stress on top of it all .

Concentrate on getting your body stronger….we are here to help you through the rest . You are very special to us, so know we are here for you xxxx

Is there a family member you can talk with?

[Snoop Puss]

Sympathy like there, LD.

Really sorry to hear your news. Not what you want on top of being physically ill. Really hope you start to recover from your health problems soon. Heartbreak is hard to heal. But Nicos is right, do you have any family, your daughter-in-law, who would you could talk to in person?

Big hug.
