Morning all, it’s damp and dreary here. Thursday, so dance practice this morning then back to be here for Kellie. Michael is coming too as he has no school (teacher training day, more likely teacher shopping day ) and they will decorate the gingerbread house as per tradition. I tweaked my back yesterday, just making the bed so am relying on paracetamol and Biofreeze, which worked reasonably well for dance class last night. Better get going, need to tidy around before we go.

Morning all

Cold brrrr

Decided to try washing my hair in the bathroom basin, not easy sitting on the perching stool, water everywhere Now I don't have to worry about getting the cast wet it was worth the effort, the caps do an okay job, but they leave a sticky residue, soooo much nicer having a proper shampoo.

Having another quiet day.

Hope you all have a good day xx

Afternoon all, it’s sunny and although we were forecast a dry day there was a shower not long back.

Bill had his walk first thing, it’s so muddy over the common.

I’m still sniffling although the cough has eased now, and I’ve lost taste and smell (done another test, still negative) which I can’t ever remember happening with a cold before. I’m usually very much feed a cold (comfort eating loads of biscuits and chocolate), starve a fever.

DPD have delivered a big bag of food for Bill, he’s not in desperate need but would probably need a bag by the end of the month so I thought it best to order it now. Just waiting for Royal Mail to collect a parcel now.

I’ve just ordered a couple of those oversized furry hoodies from M&S for Tom and Joe, the only collection date available for both the food store here and the main store in Stafford was Sunday. Every other day was blanked out. They’ll have money as their main presents but I’ve been at a loss for what else to get them, apart from cologne.

Have a good day all

Afternoon everyone

Sainsbury's first thing, we've had a sandwich for lunch, and I might do some ironing this afternoon Pilates tonight - it's not easy turning out on these dark evenings! Roll on Spring!

Jo they get more and more difficult to buy for once they're earning I'm not buying nearly as many bits this year, they're all getting a couple of decent things each, and a cheque xx

Jen, that must feel much better xx

Hope your back improves soon, Osc xx

Enjoy the party, Cruiser xx

Have fun Jan xx

You too Ally xx

Love to all xxx
