Good morning.
Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam.
Wonderful news we have had some rain overnight and at 5-30 I witnessed a rain shower for myself.lol.
There will be showers on and off today just right for Glenda’s laundry day.
The old dear passed her MOT ok so we are fine for another year thank goodness.
Off to the garage now to pick up the paper see you all soon.😀😘

Hi Ardy.
I was so pleased the old dear passed her test.
I’m afraid the clothes are hung in the kitchen lots of showers around but most have missed us so far.
Glenda not going to take a chance.😀😘

Hi ice, glad your car is good to go, a sigh of relief !
I wash clothes whenever it needs doing to old to do a load all at once or maybe just too lazy !
Don’t like the rain so used to wearing shorts and t-shirt everyday and leaving all the doors open but now that cooler air creeping in, don’t like it, lol ! Its funny sunshine then suddenly the sky clouds and the rain falls and then back to sun but the garden is loving it even if I don’t ! 🤗

Hi Beryl,
I breathed a sigh of relief when she passed everything, it has become my invalid carriage now.
Every day to get the paper which is at the bottom of our road then once a week to Lidl’s.
But she is a godsend with the state of my legs would never make the garage on foot.
I am still in an vest and shorts.😀😘

Good Morning! I didn’t feel very well yesterday with lots of fatigue. I didn’t check into chat yesterday because of that. I still don’t feel 100%. Today I need to finish getting our house ready for Lauren’s visit. She’s driving here this afternoon and will be here through sometime on Friday. After she arrives we plan to go pick up MIL-Joyce for dinner out at Hickory Tavern where Craig chose to go for his birthday dinner. His 65th birthday is tomorrow but this evening works out best for everyone to go out to eat. After I post this comment I… Read more »

Good morning, Just got my shopping and everything there so I pleased about that so I can stuff my face all day, these days are so good ! It just poured with rain and we sure need it as it hasn’t rained for a long time and everything looks dead but the drawback is the grass will grow again but I have had a long break . I have a young girl called Ashley who comes once a week to keep me company or help out which Mark sorted for me, I have to pay her but then nothing comes… Read more »

Good Morning I cant think of what I did yesterday….my days are so exciting. I did walk but even at 530 AM it is just too hot. I did some house cleaning and laundry. I bought some CBD gummies at the street fair awhile back that did help with my RLS at night and would put me to sleep so I ordered some from the Co. online…they said they would be cold packed…they came yesterday after being in an UPS truck all day with no AC and they were in Styrofoam with two tiny hot “cold” packs. This is the… Read more »

Oh no, that is awful the gummies were all melted. Can you find any local places that sell them?
I hope it cools down some for you so you can get in more walks. 🚶‍♀️

Good morning, I was just watching my little sibling hummingbirds at the feeder and Honey, the female mom. who has been with us here since May.. I know it is close to the time they will leave and it makes me sad. It has been such fun watching them out the kitchen window. Yesterday I did a pedicure and sat outside in the afternoon when the sun was out. Now after two days of relaxing we are going down to the apartment to get more stuff settled. Now that the kitchen shelving is out of the way I will enjoy… Read more »
