Good morning all. It is a bit overcast with thunderstorms forecast for later though the cold seems to have disappeared, it is back to T shirt weather.
Went for my walk this morning and on the way home called into the PO Box to pick up a couple of doona sets (quilt cover and two pillow cases).
I had to order them on line because the local stores seem to only have King and Queen sets, apparently Double bed sets are a bit povo.
When I was washing my bedding last time I noticed it was getting a bit threadbare, I tend to wash the sheets etc, then when they are dry put them back on the bed. Anyway looks like the existing one will be torn into rags once the new ones get washed.
A crisp and frosty morning down here in southern Hampshire where the temperatures have dipped below zero.
Not a great deal going on today, the wife is off to have her hair done later by a neighbour who owns a ladies hairdresser, who in return, usually makes me a brownie or small slice of drizzle cake - a welcome addition to a nice coffee. This is all in preparation for her birthday party on Saturday (her actual birthday is next month, but this is the only time we can get the family together), so she loves the fact she’s effectively getting two birthdays. Meanwhile, it’s all go with the house cleaning and chores as we’re off to Las Vegas in a few week’s time and the wife wants to put up all the decorations before we go. Not only that we are currently having some grief with travel insurance who are demanding an arm and a leg in premiums, largely due to some of my wife’s conditions and she’s been on the phone constantly trying to find someone cheaper.
Good morning!
Sunny, clear blue sky, no wind, frost
Nothing much planned for today, but I hope to clear up some minor jobs –
I bought Christmas cards & stamps yesterday, and I’ll check that I have enough … why didn’t I make a list before I bought them you might ask? … so do I.
I bought a 2027 diary and I’ll fill in the information, birthdays, and so on
Check the car before its MOT tomorrow, though I’m not expecting any problems
A general tidy; might even do some vacuum cleaning!
Temperature has climbed to 3 degrees - it was -2 a few hours ago.
Late night last night, didn’t get home until well past midnight, but we had a very enjoyable get together!
It’s an absolutely beautiful morning, so a walk into town to buy some Christmas cards - i normally trawl the charity shops as their cards are always lovely.
Must get organized.
