Hi Dita and all

[maggieh]

Good afternoon everyone.I have been entertaining my sister for a couple of hours with something other than tea.I had a very small glass and that ended up down the sink. Well I am sorry Dita and Penny but I will have to postpone this ding dong till after xmas.Penny is ok she is going to her son's for xmas day.Dita will be ok for a few more days.
I didnt get a full nights sleep lastnight I was awake barking like a dog at 2.45 I was in and out of my bed like a blue arxxse fly. Finally feel asleep at 6am.

All drs are shut now till Wednesday hope cough doesn't get any worse.I haven't got a rescue pack never been given one.

I must say I don't feel very christmasy at the momment.But hey ho.

Have a lovely evening everyone.

I can just imagine OH reaction if I said return what he ordered. Remember everything is my fault, ......

Oops. Sorry, Penny. I forgot for a moment just how bliddy irrational they can be. I hope you get to grips with it (or him!!!) soon.

Big hugs for Maggieh - not a great time to be unwell but, this year, there are supposed to be urgent GP appointments available every day of the holidays. Not necessarily with your own GP but nearby. Have a look at http://www.nhsgpappointments.uk. I think the idea is to keep us from cluttering up A&E departments and a very good idea, too.

A very quiet day here, weather a bit strange and changeable but we had a superb sunset this evening. I was going to photograph it but got outside with my camera and found the battery was flat. Then the streetlight across the road came on and completely destroyed the view so .. no picture!
Just looking forward now to a quiet few days without disturbance while the rest of the world eats cake and turkey. Enjoy!

Hi maggieh, I am so sorry you are not feeling top-hole. wish we were all closer so that we could cheer you up. Very dull and damp here and our forecast is a very cold Christmas day. What next. Cheer up Dita, we will all just have to communicate by thoughts and hope for the best. Take care all. catch you tomorrow. cheers Penny

Hi Penny and all, well its Christmas Eve, hope you are all feeling full of the joys of spring (on its way) Think you have wrapped it up Penny by what you said about thoughts, my son has already sent me a text I know by that alone he is anxious about me, he also rang last night and although I never say anything of how I am he knows- strange isn't it? Cannot get over that today is xmas eve and sunday, tomorrow should be the start of a new week- not Christmas day when we only do Christmasy stuff, does anyone understand me I wonder:) Anyway Dolly and I wish you all a Happy Holiday and take care of yourselves xxx

[Penny]

Hi all, hope everyone is now ready for the great day. Son and grandson just popped in for a cuppa and to collect parcels, also to make arrangements re picking us up tomorrow. weather turning colder as we near Christmas Day. Daughter popped in last night with pressies. Please, all take care and have a simply wonderful day tomorrow with, STRESSED MESSAGE get plenty of rest. cheers along with big hugs for Dolly and little ones. Penny

Good evening everyone
Been a bit busy cooking etc,daughter is having a cat nap so thought i would have a catch up on here.
Son and grandaughters dropped in this morning to pick up presents they couldnt carry home lastnight.
We also had a skpe with the young grandsons who are away this xmas.
Hope everyone is enjoying there day today.

[Penny]

Morning Dita and all, hope everyone is OK and well rested now that we have passed the great day. Had a fabulous day with my son a family, he prepared and cooked a superb lunch and first time in months I ate and ate until I couldn.t touch a thing more. He had recorded the Saracens weekend match so we were able to sit and watch all plus the Christmas Dancing special. Altogether a fabulous day and he brought us home at 10,30. Just awaiting the District nurse now to sort me out and then back to usual routine. I hope everyone had a good day and now preparing for New Year. Take care all and enjoy today. cheers Penny

Good morning everyone.Lovely sunny morning here after the rough weather lastnight it was bitter cold out there at 10.15.
I had a lovely afternoon/evening with my family.We went to a resturant for xmas dinner.Although I had a childs portion it was massive.But very nice.We said we will do the same next year.

After the meal my son drove us back to their house,then Sharon went back to pick her parents up and bring them back too.So was a lovely time had by all.

Today is a quiet day at home,I can go to Janet's for dinner then pub.But it's the walk both ways that puts me off.

Have a lovely day everyone.Glad you had a lovely day with your son and family Penny.Dita enjoyed her day too and Dolly.

Hi Penny and all, lovely to hear about your lovely day celebrating the day with your son and family Penny. Your day sounded lovely too Maggieh I'm wondering if you have gone to Janets after all. I received a lovely little video from my family at Hythe Church where they were attending a Carol Service so for a little while I was not that far from you Maggieh It was quite sunny earlier but it is cloud that has now taken over the skies, never mind can stay cosy and warm as I type away to you folk, apart from when Dolly requires attention of course. Hugs from us both and take care all xxx

Morning Dita and all. what a shock to get up and find everywhere covered in snow. Pleased it has now stopped and rain washed most away. Son and DIL came round after tea and son bought us a fixture which he spent ages fixing for us. Not sure what it is but advertised on TV seem I just press a pad near wherever I am and say OK Google,ask a question and Google immediately answers.Talk about modern stuff, I am completely lost. Will let you know if I ever get to use it. Nothing planned due to legs so am sitting fretting, too idle. I hate it. I hope everyone had a super Xmas and now taking time to relax. Did anyone attend the sales. never been to one myself..Big hug for Dolly, hope she enjoyed all the treats and soft hugs for little ones, best stay indoors today. Take care all. cheers Penny.

Hi Penny and all, that new machine you have sounds like one of those Home????? something or other which my Grandaughter has had given her for Christmas, it does all sorts of wonderful things and she is over the moon Penny. We have not had any snow at all despite the forecast saying we could have, had plenty of rain but its dry now. Can understand at your frustration over your legs, think you are like me and not take too kindly at having to sit very long at a time. Christmas was a glum one here OH was not in a very joyful mood throughout so I relied on phone calls and texts for a bit of cheer. + a tot of something now and again Dolly has been my saviour she is worth her weight in gold and truly keeps me going. Hugs from us both Penny and all and take care all xx
