Morning all, just went up the shop and shredded wheats are on offer, the girls love a bowl of them before bed so massive win for me!. I’m having some tea and crackers then will have a bath and get cracking with the work!. I’ll catch up with everyone later

Ok guys. Someone will have to tell me about Carol the Weather now lol

Psb I'd probably want to take the giant whale plushie too! Girl after my own heard haha

Fluffy I'm glad your DD slept well at least.

Mrs Please please don't feel bad about Shaky. It's hard when they are feral cats. My kitty Valkyrie is an ear tipped feral. It means she was caught by trap neuter and release once. It's very very hard to get her to the vet too. She is hard to catch and cries and screams. Shaky knows he was loved! You guys gave him such a good home and he went at home surrounded by love instead of out in the cold and alone. Bless you for giving him a good home.

Cathy Have a good day today dear!

My mouse on my computer has died. It's a laptop so I have that mousepad but it's sure not making life easy on me and staying caught up and posting. I'm waiting to get Joe to fix the battery for me.

My house kind of looks a mess. We've got Christmas boxes about trying to get the big tree put up and the stockings and things.

I called the scheduling about my tube. I hadn't heard from them so decided to call them instead.

I love carol the weather lady!

Sorry I haven't caught up life is busy yet I have nothing interesting to say

Ds just said that his willy belongs to me because I made him

Well, he has a point...

Saw DD off on the coach, had halloumi etc, a banana and a hot chocolate for breakfast. 🚍😋🍳🍌🍫

DS2's at Adventure. It's oh so quiet...

Little boys and their willies, eh?! 🙈😂

DD is increasingly spotty, but OK in herself. She and DH have been doing colouring in today. No doubt he's had fun!

I'm on a ram-packed train home. It's getting increasingly late because of the time it's taking people to get off, but at least it's moving!

Guys!!! Guess what!!! We finally finally have snow coming!! Anywhere between 3-9 inches (7 to 22 cm) I cannot wait! It's finally going to snow this weekend!! BRING IT ON!

Fluffy I'm glad your DD is seemingly ok still with her spots and having a good day. Poor love. I'm still keeping her in my thoughts!

Psb Your hot chocolate for breakfast is making me want some! Ive got my kettle on to do some now lol

wreck well lol he does have a point hahaha little boys are so funny!

I'm still waiting for my phone call! sigh

Picked DS2 up, had chicken and king prawn yaki udon for supper, DS2 will go to bed at 8. 😋🍗🍤🍜😴

Ooh, enjoy your snow, Wheelie! And I hope you get your call soon. I hate waiting!

DD is struggling with the itching, poor thing. She's trying so hard not to scratch! She's OK in herself though, thankfully. The spots are all over her head and 'driving me nuts!' I feel itchy just thinking about it!

DD with a new friend!

Wreck 😂

Wheels SNOW ❄️☃️❄️☃️❄️ Please post pics. I would love some here but it's not looking likely anytime soon.

PSB what a cute pic!

I am finally home. News about my Auntie is all over the place as she's been getting a little better then worse overnight and throughout the day.

I am exhausted, I feel so tense. I'm working on my blanket some more (still sewing in ends) before bath and bed.

Psb Sleep well to your DS when he goes!

Fluffy I will totally enjoy the snow!

Can you do an oatmeal bath for your DD? I remember those when we had the pox

psb How precious!!

Crazy I will take all the photos. I'm going to help the girls build a snowman or two if we get enough.

Your poor Auntie. Do they still have no idea the cause?

I got my phone call. My surgery it Monday at 7:30 AM. I will totally admit I cried and cried. Tuesday is my dd's birthday and Monday we were supposed to go to the Museum. So I just bawled like a baby. But I'm glad I'm getting ti over with even though I'm scared too.

Evening al
Ahh excuse me for the maudlin post earlier l was just feeling down and missing Shaky . Thank you Wheelie l am so comforted by your very sweet words and understanding about the problems with ferral/stray cats sigh it is not easy
Hope your mouse /puter is working ok now m'dear , you lucky thing having snow coming that will be lovely for you all! We need pics when it comes lol
Crazy hope your Aunt gets better again soon m;dear it sounds a very odd one , do they know what they are dealing with now , l do hope so Keep sewing the ends in , good girl ! Have a lovely evening relax and chill if you can
PSB beautiful pic of the DD with her new friend she looks thrilled to bits love her!
Fluffy your poor DD , we used to bath ours in bicarb , l used to get the big boxes of it and use loads , it did help . We also used loads of Calomine lotion , it made a hella couldn't resist that mess but it was lovely and soothing
Wreck your DS is sort of right lol
Just going to have a cuppa and watch part 2 of silent witness it is very good , we also watched Father Brown the first new episode and it was excellent loved it!
Hope all having a good evening and will have a good night the sky was lovely earlier will put a pic on now

Just saw your post Wheelie ah bless you sweetheart xx
It couldn't have been at a worse time but you will get so many changes better for it m'dear xxx you know all of us will be here for you sweetie pie xxx

He says "OK!" Wheelie!

Forgot the pic lol
The clouds were looking like stripes .

Pretty sky, Mrs!

Wheelie, how frustrating that it clashes with your birthday trip. Can you reschedule it for later in the week?

Wheels Try and focus on the positives - this tube will hopefully ease a lot of issues for you. And if you're scared just post and we'll all be here 💐

MrsMad Silent witness is my viewing for tomorrow. I don't have the patience to watch them over 2 nights so tend to do a marathon once a week and watch them back to back!

My auntie has some ongoing issues with her lungs and kidneys anyway and has for a very long time. It seems she now has an infection and her body has reacted to the medication she was given. They are now thinking it may be sepsis but apparently her stats aren't what they would expect. It's awful, she's completely unconscious though so she doesn't know any of this.

I am still working away on the blanket however DH has just handed me a Lindt chocolate Santa which he found with another Christmas 'teacher' present from school. He must feel sorry for me, I'm on the edge and keep feeling very tearful...

Ahhh Crazy bless your DH for that he is a sweetheart
I think your Auntie is in the best hands Crazy , they are absolutely marvellous there and giving her the best chance possible , l truly believe that . I so hope you have very good news soon
DD went out so we watched Love it or list it instead . Just came back so we are going to watch it now. I am the same l can't watch things every week for weeks on end except Bodyguard l rewatched it numerous times during the week looking for clues until the next episode

I do that with LoD, Mrs!

Did wash, laid DS2's uniform out, put clean pyjamas on DD's pillow, in bed now. 😴

Ohhh Fluffy l must do that with LOD too thank you for giving me the heads up you would think l would do that anyway being as l love LOD too but not so quick of the mark these days
PSB have a great night rest m'dear

Mrs Yeah I totally understand feral kitties! They need love and understanding and sometimes just to be left alone to not stress them out. My fluffy girl gets stressed super easily too poor dear.

Thank you for the sweet comments! I will probably be hanging out on the thread a bit more because I'm so nervous lol

That photo is beautiful!

Fluffy Unfortunately if we don't do it Monday they can't do it for a few weeks. So we've sat DD down and explained to her. She said as long as daddy gets her some flowers from the girl shop she'll be ok. We'll try to go to the museum on Sunday too!

Psb You have the best kids

Wheelie . l am so glad you understand .Thank you so much. To me it is like you don't know what to do for the best for them and you have to go by your gut instinct but all the time knowing that you may be wrong but your hands are tied you just don't know what to do
I think your DDS are just amazing bless them , you are right to go for this operation , it will make all the difference and you will feel much better sweetie
