Still waiting for more responses to my gardening request. The only one still needs to let me know when he is free for quotes, but he takes his time to answer. Nothing else on the NextDoor app. I despair of traders here, I really do. Not even a reply from anyone recommending.
Looks like I shall be doing everything myself. Really do need help though with the shrubs in the back garden. I am waiting for next door to complain about bits overhanging the fence into theirs, lol.
Might go into town. Library, return a few books, get a free hot drink, go to M&S maybe, or the Tesco metro. Then on the way home see if my repeat meds are ready.
Good morning all.
Well not a lot going on today I donāt think.
My daughter has gone to the IOW for the weekend. I might get a visit from my grandson sometime.
I will just have to find things to do and amuse myself.
As usual, laundry is doing in the machines.
Been out with Minnie, Also 2 of the foxes were roaming about. Weather is dull but not so cold.
Missing her this morning jumping on my head, biting my ankles, swinging from the curtains, gnawing the new beds, hope is is OK and not too stressed out.
Janet Chinese.
Prawn Crackers.
Chicken in Orange Sauce.
Special Fried Rice.
Chicken Chow Mein.
Large Veg Spring Roll.
Good morning all.
Susie. What is happening with Poppy? I hope nothing serious.
Done my morning stroll with Minnie.
Again the weather is overcast but not so cold.
I am trying out a new recipe for my bread that my son-in-law recommends. The thing it the time it takes is 4 hours instead of the 2 that I normally use.
Why an I doing this? Because lately the recipe I was using it seems that the bread was not rising enough.
Now going to do my daily puzzles on this iPad.
Emjay, Poppy was taken away yesterday for rehoming. Susie was very upset when I rang in the morning, so called again in the afternoon once my appointments and chores were done.
I got up late this morning, about 8.30, but have managed a clothes wash, with them hanging up to dry now. Some outside on the short line. Once I get the shrubs cut down and back I might get a bit more on the line later. I could do with one higher up, like some of the neighbours have here, but the mini pergola is in the way. Very reluctant to get it all taken down as the growth in the summer looks lovely (honeysuckle and roses).
Iām so pleased I got a car again. It means Tony & I are free.
Iām quite used to driving the little Toyota now but I donāt really like it. It feels like driving a toy!! ā¦ Anyway - got to put up with it now.
Tony & I are going to explore a local nature reserve this afternoon. He likes me to take him to somewhere heās not been before. Mind you - he wonāt remember where heās been but he enjoys it at the time, bless him.
Cooking a roast beef dinner for tonight & looking forward to watching Call the midwife. I think itās the last episode tonight.
I love that series.
Emjay, we couldnāt cope with Poppy and I know she is only a Kitten, but I donāt think she will grow out of it, its not just Kitten play, she really is quite wild went she gets going, but I love her too bits, but she is destroying our Home.
Good morning all.
Itās not to bad out today.
As usual for a Monday, Sainsburys for my weekly shop shortly.
My daughter is still away and should be back later this afternoon.
I did have visits from my grandson over the weekend, and that is the only human that I have seen.
Susie. I can understand your problems with Poppy.
I also have to watch Minnie as she needs to go out a lot now to do twiddles. I know the signs, and does tell me in her certain way.
Good morning all.
It is also cold, foggy, frosty, and horrible out.
I had an early wake up call from Minnie at 0500 to go out, and then again at 0600.
I donāt have anything yet planed for today, so will just let it happen.
Holly also wanted the garden, about 3.30 I think. It was so cold.
Have no specific plans, other than the cafe meet with the ladies, and apparently I have some pie and mash waiting for me. The husband forgot to message me last night when he made it, so I can collect in the cafe.
Hope it warms up later. Really must get to the allotment for some digging. I donāt think anyone or company is interested in helping me, so Iād best get on with it myself.
Good morning everyone, Iāve had a short break from forum life but hope you have all been keeping well. I look forward to catching up with the threads now, so hope to get back in chat mode before long.
