A really horrible day here, freezing rain is making the ground treacherous to walk on.
I have just been across the field with Pippin , I need to take her out whatever the weather to get rid of some of her energy or she is a pain. It is safe walking on the grass and my trusty walking pole is like having an extra leg and gives me stability.
I am going to prepare lunch now then have an easy day.
Stay safe…
The temperature is gradually climbing, the cold snap is over. I was relieved to discover that my foot was no longer swollen and purple and I can actually walk!
I’m going to catch up on some much needed house work before indulging in some delectable snacks with my son during the football 
Enjoy your day all!
Good morning!
It’s dull & grey here, but very slightly warmer and some of the snow & ice has melted
Pottering about at home this morning, then an early dinner and go for a drive to keep the engine turned over, but only on the main roads
Hi
Good Morning All.
Nice to be up to posting again.
Just had my birthday, lovely card and present from Millie, aged 7, paid for out of her own money.
Her Mum is a single parent who does my cleaning and Millie helps.
Have a good day all and nice to to see the weather getting warmer.
Morning. After a particularly blue start (as expected), life goes on. Gotta drop my daughter off at work, go and change a broken loo seat at one of my rental flats and then mill around the Trafford Centre for an hour or so, trying to find inspiration to buy Mys Dex a prezzie. Every year we promise not to buy prezzies for each other, but every year we do, just in case.
MIL is coming round for tea, so I guess I’ll have to put on the facade of feeling OK.
Happy Birthday Swimmy. Glad you’re feeling stronger.
And morning from all. Good that you are posting, swimmy!
It’s cold with a sour wind - I don’t think Ozzie cared for it. The weather says it is snowing now but not where we are.
Good morning all, pouring with rain here and still very cold.
All prepared for Christmas, then I had a call from my daughter yesterday to say my SIL had a phone call from his Consultant to say the results of his latest MRI showed the tumour in his head is growing again and he has to go for Radiotherapy in January/February. I feel so sad for them as they have both had worrying health problems over the past 4 years.
I’ll be making more mince pies to take over to them tomorrow.
Coffee time now to warm me up!
Stay warm and safe everyone…
Sorry to hear about you SIL Mags.
Happy birthday Swimmy, so pleased you are feeling better. 
Hi peeps 
Gift shopping for family is done - just my daughter’s gift remaining.
I’m finally feeling festive so I’m spending my afternoon putting up the Christmas decor by myself since my son is out with friends to watch the final soccer match later.
Christmas carols on, glass of wine 
and tackling the Christmas tree 
- wish me luck!

Happy birthday Swimmy 
Happy birthday Gibbs, hope you had a nice day.
I did a while ago send you two messages, but you didn’t reply.
Have a nice evening all.
Happy Birthday Swim feeders have a great day.
Good to see Swims back.
Mags, sorry to hear about your SiL.
@Kazz Hi Kazz Pippin is growing so fast, she is already bigger than Chloe was and quite a handful but super intelligent and quick to learn.
