Oh heck!
-
Yep - that's it - great idea for little hands that can't cope with holding cards!
-
One of my daughters-in-law is a real keen sewer (oh no a 'sewer' that can't be right?) - hmmm - she loves to sew sounds better 🤣 she makes clothes, bags, beautiful table placemats, table runners and much more... We have been there for lunch today - she showed me something that she had made for the two little ones - fantastic idea - a sort of 'frame' like an ipad stand with two rows of pockets - not sure that I am explaining this very well...I was completely stumped, had no idea what they were...they were so that the children can put their cards in when playing 'uno' as they can't hold them in their hands - how clever!
-
Two lovely 'makes' Cait. I have nothing to share - back to making squares for 'Knit for Peace' blankets and crochet edging all the squares knitted by the group - shhhh don't tell anyone I am quite happy doing this - it's all lovely, mindless and relaxing Knit and Natter group made some great items for our nearest food bank through the winter - hats, hot water bottle covers (we also purchased the bottles) lap blankets, scarves...

Just bring yourself louby! Bloomin' washing hokey-cokey I am at it too...
-
Oh my actual goodness 'tis Friday again! I imagined that once retired the weeks wouldn't fly by so fast - not the case at all! Hope everyone is okay? We have a Sunday lunch with eldest son and family this weekend - lovely - not seeing much of him currently as he is working away, so looking forward to a good catch up! Other than that it looks like the weather might be good - so if you need me I will be in my garden - the gates not locked so just let yourselves through to the back 🤣 Hope that you all have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend x

Hello Ms Christi and welcome to the forum (noticed this was your first post) I am not a fan of 'twee' names - can they not just be known by the age groups? Not much help really, sorry!
-
I have some good news to share! I have just been for physio and...I don't have to go again - whoop! I didn't really give him a lot of choice "I'm really hoping that you will say I don't need to come again" So I have to keep up the exercises, arrange another steroid injection without delay if needed, I am 'permitted' to try very short walks, but he advised about not pushing it. The 'horrible knee' is not so 'horrible' now - it is tender and a bit niggly and a little bit of the swelling remains - but so much better, thank goodness
-
I got mine at 2:59...Mr S was 3:10 - same network so can't really understand why
-
Was anyone 'alarmed' at 3pm? I thought it was all a bit underwhelming really...
-
Oh lovely zigzag Happy Birthday - you mustn't ignore your special day, although I do understand your thinking xxx You could do young Froglet's cleaning and I would happily do her ironing for her!
-
Dear young Froglet I hope that you had a good sleep and that you manage some time to do the things that are just for you - another virtual hug and lots of positive vibes are winging their way to you x
-
I can send you the biggest of virtual hugs Did you ever invest in the old 'sleeping foot butter'? I do hope this doesn't mean that you have to spend your weekend working?
-
🤣 Update - Mr S was duly vaccinated just after midday - he does listen to me sometimes!
-
Good morning all - 'tis Friday! How is everyone doing? Nothing exciting to report from here - looking forward to a quiet weekend after last weekend's fund raising efforts! Mr S has just set off to our nearest town for his 'pulmonary course' thingywhatsit - he also has his Covid jab booked for 2:15 in the same town, in the same road actually - I suggested that he call into the chemist who is delivering the vaccine when he finishes his course (around 12 noon) just to see if they would do it then- he is such a 'rule follower' he said "I can't do that" 🤦♀️ - for goodness sake, it has to be worth a try! 😂 perhaps he will, we'll see... What is going on with this flippin' weather? Absolutely lashing down again here, so disappointing. I do hope that it is not too awful for the Marathon runners on Sunday. Hope that the weekend is kind to all x
-
Oh my actual goodness! Drumroll.......just over £1600.00 raised over the weekend for DEC and.......NatWest will match that - whoop, whoop, I am like a dog with two tails this evening!
-
Sending lots and lots of positive vibes xxx
-
Phew! My busy weekend of volunteering is done! My part of the 'operation' was raising funds for DEC Turkey/Syria earthquake relief - yesterday we raised just over £500 and today was busier so all in all we should be making a fairly hefty donation which is brilliant. All good fun but quite taxing and reminded me why I am happy in my state of retirement 🤣
-
It wasn't at all awful - doc said "breathe in" then "breathe out" and that's when he put the needle in - injection contained a local anaesthetic, an anti-inflammatory and the steroid - doc asked "was that painful" to which I replied "meh, I've had babies"! 🤣🤣🤣 I do have everything crossed that you get some help soon x
-
I don't know what you are worried about - I have a niece who is 52 - but my sister, her mum, is 9 years older than me...
-
Well there's a thought 🤣🤣🤣
-
Thank you so much louby that is such encouraging news! I forgot to say that he said "you may need a top up at some point, I will keep you on my list and if you just ring Sam she can arrange it" - I thought/said oh that's great, thank you...sometime later I realised to me that I actually have no idea who Sam is or how to contact her - doh 🙃 I will have to ask the physio when I next see him and hopefully he can enlighten me 🤣
-
Sheesh Cait - I'm worn out just reading that - you will be busy, busy, busy - whereas I just have to 'show up' for my volunteering! 😂
