Thankfully son no1 got back to Wales last night.
Not snowing so far this morning,bitterly cold wind.The snow’s drifted against the garden fence where it’s quite deep.Only a few cars have passed on the road,no buses running today.
Made a big saucepan of cawl yesterday so got enough for a couple more days.Got plenty of dog food in.
Keep warm and safe.
Snowing heavily again now-HATE it.
That’s it then, we are officially snowed in. Micky can’t get the tractor up the lane to the road and my road is drifted in well and truly. No carer’s in or out, I’m on duty and the only carer who is here is staying, bless her. I made a huge casserole for the lambing family but if they can’t get here, we’ll eat it!
Apparently the River Wye has frozen over - that hasn’t happened for a long time.
We have just had a smattering of snow but its cold.No newspapers but at least I’ve got food
Keep warm and safe .
Snowed again last night and snowing a bit again this morning,but not quite so windy.
Hope son no1 can bring me a couple of things from the shops later.
Dog none too pleased with the snow,he used to like it in his younger days-too old to play in it now.
Keep safe and warm.
had a slight thaw yesterday,but its now started snowing again,cant get out of the lane,but well stocked up
Feel sorry for the family who are stuck at Groesvaen. Micky dug his lane out yesterday (drifts over the top of the hedge) and it has filled back in again by this morning. The water to the sheds has frozen so carrying water to the sheep by the bucketful - never ending. And ewes and baby lambs stuffed in every corner.
I have a noble carer who is going to stay with me until the agency can get her out and another one in, which will certainly not be today since I can see a drift out of the window which is right across the road.
Counting my blessings though, oil tank full, electricity still on and food in the pantry.
Poor you Sue ,lucky with the carer though. I remember getting snowed in on duty in Singleton . A patient who lived locally was called in for a minor op because most lists had been cancelled was so grateful he gave me £50 to share out . Most of the nurses who were sleeping overnight and the Porters went up to the Vivian Arms and had a good night . We made mini snowmen and put them in the freezers to show to patients next morning
Forgot to say still no snow but its cold brrrr
The snow is slowly thawing-can see a bit of green on the lawn.
Been going stir crazy in the house.Will be glad to get out tomorrow,going to have an eye test at 9.30.
Thank goodness it’s not cold out-quite balmy to what it’s been like!
Have a good day.
Well there’s a chance that Micky will try to open our road this morning and we can change carers. The poor girl who has been here since Thursday may actually see her own bed tonight! Spoke to Micky yesterday and he thought he might be coming down with flu, but I thought the aching might be due to the fact that he fell off a shed roof on Thursday…
its wet and windy here and cold .
Lots of people walking dogs on the beach all wrapped up.
Have a good day xx
Woohoo! Micky’s cleared the road and the yard. Chris has been to visit and have lunch with me. Fruit cake sent back with them. Fresh carer arrived and the one who has been here since Thursday has returned home. And the sun is shining!!!
Snow almost all gone.Raining this morning.
Been for an eye test,thankfully I don’t need new glasses so the family silver is safe for this month!
Have a good day.
Wet and cold here. We are lucky compared to some poor folk with no heating nor water. Keep warm xxx
It’s wet and cool in Bishopston here in South Gower. I have have had a phone call about a hospital appointment.
Nice and sunny here so I’ve chanced washing on the line and going out for pub-lunch soon
Hope you have all got sunshine xxx
So warm in the conservatory that I had to go and put a t-shirt on so I could drink my coffee in comfort - but I had to dig away one and a half feet of snow from all round the car so I could open the door and actually get off the yard. However it started first time and we’ve been to the village and back - woo-hoo! Tomorrow, some shopping and trip to the vets for lambing supplies.
Sunshine this morning.Having a day in today,catching up on the dreaded housework,don’t know how much I’ll have the energy to do-had a terrible night’s sleep.
Have a good day.
Had a scare this week . I felt something strange about my tongue (Have to put the Cannabis oil under tongue}.Checked in mirror and underneath was so swollen it looked like 2 tongues . I kept an eye on it worried I’d choke . Anyway yesterday the swelling was gone but there were 3 little lumps with ?dots of pus . Checked this morning and the pus is gone but the lumps are still there so ?an allergic reaction . If not gone by Friday I will go to Doc and no more oil for me
