<snoooooooort> at complicated task letus Grin
And squeeeeeeee for kittens!!!!!!

Poor Misty, I hope she is able to catch up tomorrow, Chonk & Floof have much sympathy.

LetUsPrey · 06/02/2025 07:17

Morning wenches.

Love all the cat support for Misty, as is only right and proper 😊

Frozen overnight here and it looks to be rather foggy. Tip top.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 06/02/2025 08:56

Morning all. Misty<nto> morning and golden sunrise = scenic start to the day. Bit cold though.

I have lots of work and bugger all motivation. Not v. helpful. Fingers crossed for a good day for everyone.

ApricotCrush · 06/02/2025 16:37

Afternoon. Very frosty this morning but it’s been sunny since. I haven’t done a lot today, just some housework and knitting,

Misty thanks wenches and TavCats for their sympathy and understanding. She’s been sleeping in a patch of sun all day to recuperate. Grin

Lovely news about the kittens. Smile

Evening, Work was worky, weather was cold. One of my friends is getting a puppy Grin I want a puppy, but that would be completely impractical. <side-eyes general chaos and lego everywhere>

LetUsPrey · 06/02/2025 20:44

Evening wenches.

Portions of work were spent today getting half a tale from people who want stuff doing, and then part of that was wrong.

Mmm sleeping in a patch of sunlight - nicely done Misty.

You will have to visit puppy to get your puppy fix Helen, but without the training and feeding and walking in horrible weather parts.

LetUsPrey · 07/02/2025 07:25

Morning wenches.

Been awake from 5, thought it was Thursday. Read for a bit after DH had gone, still thinking it’s Thursday. Time to get up and I thought hang on, did I finish work early yesterday? No, I didn’t. Had to look at my phone to check that today is actually Friday. I suspect I’ve peaked for good news today though 😁

Have super days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 07/02/2025 08:31

Morning all. It's cold and dark outside (or it was dark - it's still cold - the wind is biting). No frost though, so that's my peak good news moment.

At least your confusion was the right way round LetUs - nothing worse than being convinced it's a Friday (or the weekend) and then realising that it's midweek still!

Finger crossed for a good day for all.

ApricotCrush · 07/02/2025 17:03

Afternoon. No frost this morning but it’s very cold and dull. Nothing going on here.

Nice surprise when you realised it was Friday LetUs.

How’s MrH now Helen?

Have a good evening all. Wine

Evening wenches.

Non-stop at work so am rather tired now. Definitely a nice surprise it was Friday and not Thursday - especially at this end of the day!

Having a drink and then I’m going to read for a bit.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 07/02/2025 21:45

Evening all.

Work was busy and involved confusing emails that I haven't got to the bottom of. Still, that's done for this week anyway.

Mr H is continuing to improve I think. Though it was 'too cold' for him to be outside and help with plants that got blown over Hmm. I'm sure he could have just wrapped up more and helped, but I wasn't in the most cheerful frame of mind having found that he'd noticed them going and said nothing. So it was probably sensible for him to stay out of my way for a bit. There was much swearing.

How is MrA doing?

LetUsPrey · 08/02/2025 08:22

Morning wenches.

Slight <cbf> at MrHelen.

Looks chilly outside here. No plans today other than going seeing the kittens, I mean DS1 and his girlfriend.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 08/02/2025 11:02

Morning.

Bit of a lie-in today - hurrah. It's cloudy and uninspiring outside, though at least the wind has dropped. Planning to put washing out in the hopes it gets a bit drier...

Enjoy the kittens LetUs - I have a puppy lined up for visiting tomorrow Grin

ApricotCrush · 08/02/2025 17:06

Afternoon. Murky day here and it's raining now.

DH is fine but has been driving me mad sorting out his car insurance all morning. It's been a nightmare but done now.

Squeeee for kitten and puppy visits.

LetUsPrey · 08/02/2025 20:55

Evening wenches.

Kittens were tiny and beyond adorable 🥰 So many photos taken.

Hope puppy was similarly cute.

I’ve been watching a new (to me) series called Astrid: Murder in Paris. Can’t do anything else at the same time though because subtitles.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 08/02/2025 22:12

Evening all. Today was much as expected, and definitely improved by getting outside for a while. Washing didn't get very dry on the line though.

Haven't come across Astrid: Murder in Paris - DS has us watching The Hateful Eight - a Tarantino western - as bloodthirsty as you'd expect.

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2025 08:39

Morning wenches.

It’s on download from Channel 4 I think.

I know I need to get outside more. Just make myself.

Usual Sunday here.

Have lovely days wenches.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 09/02/2025 11:11

Morning. A dull start and cloudy again. Waiting for DS-GF to appear so we can go puppy visiting. Why don't teens talk to each other? <eye roll>

FancyFancy · 09/02/2025 15:03

Afternoon
<squeeeeee> at kittens and puppies - not that I don't love my striped chonky boys Grin
Mostly just pootling around today - deciding whether to mix up how I hang the pictures in my room, or just put them back up where they were - argggh, decisions!!!! It's very grey and drizzly here, so will venture no further than the bins, a good day to stay inside.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 09/02/2025 15:13

Puppy is cuuuuuute! Very much 'squeeee!'
(That is all.)

ApricotCrush · 09/02/2025 17:33

Evening. Miserable and rainy, not very inspiring. DS came round this afternoon with the kids so that broke the day up.

Your weather sounds much like ours Fancy, I don’t blame you for not going out.

The kittens and puppy sound soooooo cute. Smile

We’re watching the latest series of Silent Witness. It’s good, but I wish they hadn’t got Nikki and Jack together. I enjoyed watching the frisson between them and it’s rather spoiled now. I think JKR has got the right idea with Strike and Robin.

Evening wenches.

Was quite surprised how windy it was when we left my parents at lunchtime. Proper whipping through the trees. Still very breezy now.

See I’d just put stuff back where it was Fancy, but I don’t have an eye for that sort of thing like you do.

Squeee at puppy! Hope you got lots of cuddles Helen.

It’s a good series Apricot but I’m with you on the romance aspect.

I’ve been knitting but then putting the knitting down to watch more Astrid.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 09/02/2025 20:21

Evening. We have been out for a family meal which was nice, though I'd messed up food timings and had to eat late afternoon - which didn't work well with an early evening meal. On the other hand - saved money by not wanting much to eat!

I did get puppy cuddle, and and am now torturing myself again looking at puppies online. v. impractical.
It' cold here too - the wind has got up again and is biting.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 10/02/2025 07:16

Morning. Can confirm it's cold and dark, and windy. And cold - did I mention that?. I think I'll need a crowbar to get DS out of bed (and I sympathise with him!).

LetUsPrey · 10/02/2025 07:20

Morning wenches.

A glimmer of light just now but not much. It’s definitely turned colder here too. Unacceptable even if it is still winter.

Bit tired as not a great night’s sleep. I usually wake up a few times but last night my brain was whizzing away. <sidles into cupboard>

Have great days wenches.
