Wild and windy Wednesday

that is the weather of course!!

Morning...

Doesnt seem quite as cold out today, but its windy.
No big plans for today, a date with the ironing board and thats about it.
Have a good day, see you later x

Good morning Karen, oooh can't type this morning my hands are so cold Put the little heater on in my craft room before I came in here so it is warm but I can't seem to warm up. My shoulders are really aching again this morning. Woke up about 6.00 and shuffled the pillows around but couldn't find a comfortable way of laying. Martin rubbed some Deep Heat on for me before he went to work which has warmed it up but still aching I just want to snuggle up in a blanket today but have to get some cards done, haven't done any for days although I keep saying I am going to.

Thinking of Jen today - hugs to all that need one and enjoy your ironing Karen

Morning Karen, Jacky and all who follow. It's very windy here and the car said it was -3 when I took Michaela up to her friends this morning. I've got the heating on today (which I usually don't do)hat when I try to do some cards later I will be able to use and feel my fingers.

Karen once you've finished your ironing do you want to come and do mine???

Jacky I hope you get your cards made

Lou I hope Emily is feeling better

(((HUGS))) to anyone who needs them

Have a good day whatever you are doing

Morning all - just a quick pop on here as I have some cards to do before I go to Roy's for dinner. Isn't he good he's cooking tonight. Steak and baked potato. Jacky sounds as if you've got a flu type bug to me. Hope it goes away soon.

Afternoon all,

late in today cos I have been making christmas cards with Emily, well really all I had to do was search and gets bits out of my stash and then keep reminding her not to put the double sided tape down on the carpet so it don't get hairy!!! She made 7 in all and then lost interest, all made from my christmassy papers and bits recycled off last years cards my mum and dad received! She only does handmade ones for her 'special' friends.... the rest are getting the ones I bought in the after christmas sales in January!

Thinking of Jen today. Hopefully only an overnighter she said in a PM so hopefully will be able to catch up with her on Friday x All the best babe xx

Jacky really hope your shoulders ease up soon, mine have been bad this morning but have had my heat pad on them... its great because it's not bulky or heavy like a hot water bottle and it is continuous steady heat and you can wrap it over your shoulder... i got it for £15 on Ebay and I highly receommend one x The first one I had was a Paula Radcliffe endoresed one but when that broke I got another one by a companty called Dreamland.... its a good size pad so it covered pretty much all of your back too for my bad days! If you want a link let me know hun x

Sue have a lovely time at Roys tonight, steak and baked spuds sounds perfect for these cold nights!

Frances... I have the heating on too at the moment, trying to conserve energy is a pain but there are only so many jumpers you can wear before looking like a blasted sumo!!!

Karen.... we really must find you a hobby.... you do more ironing than anybody I know!!!

Hugs for any poorlies x Hope you all have a lovely day, and that Jen gets a dishy doc or nurse!!!

Lou, thanks for the tip about the heat pad, googled it and found Boots sold it so phoned the little Boots we have in Frimley now and they have one in stock so Martin is going to pick one up for me on his way home from work. £19.99

Sue, your dinner sounds good to me too especially having it cooked for you. I can't really complain as Martin does the ironing and I would rather cook than iron and you could be right about a virus as I have felt so tired for the past few days and with a headache in the background nearly all the time. I do feel better today, not so tired, just the nagging pain in the neck but at least he is at work today It's my shoulder really but couldn't resist that, bless him, but it did seem to start at my neck. I have done some cards today at last and have sussed out the card which Jane put in her gallery so have started on some using that design now

I hope it works as well for you as it does for me.... if its for your shoulder the tip is to bit with a cushion behind it so it is pressed right in there and some come with a strap to help secure it but it may be too short for a shoulder so a dressing gown strap does a good job!!!

Good evening ladies bloomin freezing here and wet and windy, not done much today except go to the drs over my thumb, she pierced it twice has it was swollen and infected. Put a dressing on it and given some antibiotics and told to keep an eye on it incase the infection got worse. Hugs to any poorlies sat now trying to keep warm and havin a cuppa. was contenplating going into town to watch the Christmas lights been switched on but the celeb is pepper pig so dont think we will be bothering.

lol!!!! Peppa Pig snort snort



Well, I had a phone this afty from my Social worker confirming that 'the panel' have agreed Mum can have 2 night sits. Just waiting now to hear from Crossroads who will be doing them. They are going to contact me regarding an introductory meeting to enable Mum to meet the Sitter. Just wondering whether I ought to be there on the first night sit (obviously I shall be there to meet the sitter when Mum meets her for the first time) what do you think???? The sit will be from 10.00 pm through till 7.00 am
Mum should be having Dawn tomorrow, so can always ask her.
Dark and raining out now... first rain we have had today.

Lou.... you should know by now... IRONING is my hobby

Great thanks, much better than the hot water bottle which kept slipping down, this stays put and heats up so quickly too

Thats good news Karen, glad you are getting some help at night - it will help you sleep better knowing your Mum is safe in her house You could be there when she gets there but then leave her to it but it would be a good idea to ask Dawn what she thinks

Really glad you think it was a good purchse hun x Also good for pre-teen daughters with belly ache!!!

He does my ironing as well!!!
