I need to go there @Wolfie! Meet my relatives! X

Oh that'll makes someone's day!

It seems I've missed a bit of your conversations. Sending hugs to @Debs and @Rawkaren. So glad, Karen, that you'll be able to spend 3 weeks with your hubby soon. Sounds as though he's a workaholic, so I expect you'll be keeping your eye on him. Poor thing, must be a worrying time for you and so difficult when you have such a long commute.

Well I haven't really much news, its just I'm hoping to list some clothes on eBay and if I do anything else I won't have enough energy to get it done. I'm just having a quick pop in here (just a quick one!) and then I can get it done!

Hope you all have a good Thursday. Speaky soon

Morning peeplets!
Slept very well, once I'd snuggled besides Mr Forthem!! In fact, slept till 8.15!! Now I fancy making hot cross buns, too.
It's a choice, folks... stay in and make hot cross buns, or go out clothes shopping... hang on, if I'm organised, I can do both!!
TTFN xx

Oh I like the word "peeplets"!

Surely you can eat hot cross buns WHILST shopping...well you're a woman aren't you?!!

Good luck with the ebaying , @nursebean

Oh yum they look good!!!!

I've given up on the idea of making them!! Eating sounds good @nursebean! Especially as I need to up my carbs! I'm also going to treat us to some Aldi chocolate that @silverdarling recommends!
Taking of chocolate, beanster, when can you indulge? Haven't you done well without it, though? Don't go mad there!!
@callyanna I'm taking myself off to Chester after the Ocado delivery!!

WOW Pennyforthem, I am soooo impressed with your cool!!
I'm not sure I would have been, tend to have a very longish memory dressed in all black...

Morning all, Firstly hugs to @rawkaren and @Debs I hope your problems resolve themselves easily and quickly.

I'm off for a nap in a bit as I was up and cleaning at 5:45. I'm trying to wean myself off the Tramadol but the withdrawal effects include hot flushes, which is exacerbating the high carb load hot flushes I am having. So back to low carbing, again! This time I really have to make a life style change and make it permanent.

Its a cloudy, cold day here in Herefordshire. A spot of rain will do the garden some good and help to soften the rock hard clay lumps I have in places. My plans for today are to get the baby plants in the ground move some more bigger plants, (I know its the wrong time of the year but it needs to be done, they will get a big rootball and loads of water to help them along), and putting in some timber lawn edging if I have enough time.

I seem to suddenly be so busy, I am having trouble getting everything done. I want to do all of the above, plus sort out the two bags of clothes my neighbor has given me to put on ebay, AND shampoo the downstairs carpets now the patio has been cleaned. Then there's the re-build of the inside of my big shed, new workbenches and shelving, then once that's done I can get back to wood turning again. Its going to be a good year this year.

I don't know who mentioned it, but there was a thread going on about glasses and contact lenses and someone mentioned that they have one lense in one eye for distance work and no lens in the other eye for close work and that the brain sorts it out. Well I still have some daily disposables of the correct prescription so decided to try it out. Its working, my reading seems to have a bit of ghosting to it and I have to move my head a bit more to see to the left long distance (corrective lens in the right eye), but I can see this working for me. Yay! I can go back to wearing contacts. Or I can just go out and buy a cheap pair of +2.00 reading glasses and wear lenses in both eyes.

Now thats weird, I don't feel like a nap now, I have been online for quite a while). I will just put my scruffs on and get out in the garden. Catch you all later.

[Debs]

Sounds like you are flat out julieathome!! Yes, I was wearing contacts plus cheap reding glasses, worked well for me!!

We have a bumper crop of wild garlic at the end of the garden, so I have picked some for pesto. Told you I wouldn't be counting anything over Easter!!

to that Julie!

I've just noticed that the Easter challenge weigh in is tomorrow. I've bean working towards Sunday...that's the day I can eat chocolate! I can't beleeeeeive I've gone so long without chocolate. It's a little bit scary too because I don't want to end up eating too much again
