Hi Marilyn, glad to hear you are feeling better love, don't go over doing it in the garden, relax and enjoy the sun, .

~~~~~~~~~to everyone, hope you are all ok, enjoy your day.

Very sunny here at the moment, hope it lasts, maybe I can get some more work done in the garden between cups of coffee.

Take care everyone, stay safe and have a good day.

Hi Everyone !!

Linda .....you have been spending too much money ..LOL

Dentists are definitely over priced (my sister was in the chair for 4 mins so she tells me) for a check up .....£18.

Jean ....I'm much better I went to the Physio yesterday for breathing exercises and they are very pleased with me ....going on the treadmill next week to get myself walking !!

Its beautiful today, so might get some gardening done .

I expect Shelly has lost another stone by now ... :-D

Hiya everyone
Well not too bad a day.
Spent loads.
Dentists first stop, nearly £200 and that is NHS !! I need 4 fillings, ugh.
. On has to be either special white which can be bonded to what is left of my tooth , as I have a crown on lower jaw. Or it can be a toughened one on the nhs, but that comes into the next (highest) band of treatment and would cost £214 I think. The white filling is £90. Then I had a check up 2 x-rays and 3 silver fillings all nhs. I also have an appointment with the hygienist. Great morning
Into M&S got 3 tops, for me, trousers for hubby and a pair of trousers for me which are a different cut and don't fit !!! So have to go back again. Why didn't I queue to try them on?
Back home for lunch. Sun was shinning so we have been in the garden, hubby cut back and front lawns and I tidied borders and pots. Dug up some herbaceous daisy type plants to pass on to a neighbour too.

Been knitting and still making squares, while I can find odds and ends of wool.

Have a nice evening everyone

Belated Anniversary wishes to Marilyn. Glad you had a nice day, even without the wine !!
Well done Shelly. I wish I could shift some more of my weight. Off for blood tests tomorrow, maybe things have changed and meds need adjusting? who knows.
Hope Mo and Roly are OK and he is getting better in hospital. Try to have a break for yourself Mo or you won't be able to help hubby.
Blowy here again , but dry at present. Rain forecast for later.
Just done the ironing.
Finished a jumper for Sebastian on Friday and just made a waistcoat too, need to put buttons on it.

Hi to all my friendlies ...

Awh thanks for wishing me & Pete a good anniversary, we have just come back from a kind of different meal in the new River Cottage restaurant owned by Hugh Fearnley -Whittingstall that's opened here in Plymouth Dockyard..........all very different food Organic ,but very expensive.

Pity I couldn't drink the wine ......water for me Ughh ...

We went with one of my sons & grandchildren......they loved it.

We are grandchildren sitting tonight so that's why we went lunch time.

I'm still a little bit weak but gaining streagh every day.

Mo I'm ever so sorry to hear about Roly, he's in the best place, but that doesn't help you worrying does it ! (((((( big hugs from me )))))) <3

Shelly ....well what did you weigh on Friday ?

Happy Anniversary to Marilyn and Pete, hope you have a lovely day <3

Sending best wishes for a speedy recovery to Roly <3


one of my nieces is in hospital, was taken in yesterday, she has Nephrotic Syndrome which is a kidney disorder, her kidneys take too much protiein
from her body, she has medication but it sometimes flares up and needs treatment in hospital, hopefully she will be home in a few days.

Hi My Lovelies.....

Shelly......don't go skinny, I don't think it will suit you.....hmm says me jealous :-P

I did loose half a stone in hospital but afraid I'm gaining it .. :-(

But I will not let Shelly be thinner than me ......so watch out SHELLY !!!!! :-P

Linda.....you'll never loose weight with all those scrummy meals you go to, another reason I'm jealous is I cant drink wine at the moment so no meals out :-S


Cath ...Lovely to see you pop in....so sorry to hear of your loss, its always sad when you are fond of a passing relative, never mind time heals....X ((((Hugs))))

I have been shopping today for little bolero tops for 3 sun dresses and I bought in USA.... 2 are the wrong colour ,I mean the wrong colour Green & Purple.....so going back next week, I should have taken the dresses in with me.

Hope our Stevey......comes back...SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON <3

Hi all,
just popping in to say hello. Have had a rotten year so far and sadly lost my wonderful mother in law on 1st April. I feel devastated, even though she had been in poor health for some time it was somewhat unexpected. I miss her so much.

Have tried to pop in a few times but kept getting the error message again, some things don't change :-P
Hope the friendlies are all keeping well, I will try and get back more often to check up on everyone and all the news but at the moment I have lost heart in all my hobbies.

<3 <3 <3

Hi Shelly
Just back from the gym We only do about 80 mins. Takes too much out of our day otherwise.
Well I stayed the same this week. I did have a friends birthday meal out on Tuesday and we went to our daughters on Saturday, had friends over on Sunday and the youngest came on Monday. Probably ate more than I would normally so I am OK with that.
Tonight is yet another meal out, our eldest daughters birthday, never ending isn't it.

Still back at the drs next week blood tests for thyroid and diabetes. I'll see what they say in 2 weeks.

Are you still working in the school Shelly? And I guess no sign of you moving as you are doing up your garden?

Have a great day everyone

Linda xxx <3 <3 <3

Hi Shelly
Like you once to the gym, on Tuesday but hope to get there tomorrow morning.
Oh it has been miserable for the last 2 days. Wet yesterday then waiting in for the gas man. Need a new cylinder. On order for 2 weeks time !! And fitting the next day. If it leaks rather than seeps then the gas insurance will be getting a call for repairing and putting right any wet mess that might happen.
Today had been so windy, we went for a drive but ended up not being able to even get out for a walk, ugh. And now it has been raining for a couple of hours too. Well I suppose the garden needed it.
Hope everyone is OK

Linda xxx <3 <3 <3
