Any news on when they can move in Rainbow? Exciting times ahead for them.
Have a lovely time at the birthday tea. Where is it?
PK I keep forgetting to ask if you will be watching Les Miserables. It looks really good on the trailer. I never did get through the book.

Hello all. Raining as usual here. The leaves are falling off Mum's Poinsettia. I know just how it feels. Love reading about all your festive preparation exploits. I wanna come round and smash 'er face in. Miserable cow. Finished watching John Sim in Strangers from 4ish onwards. 10/10 fab drama. Sad though.

Hello 👋 Had a busy few days and I think it’s taking its toll 😟 Was gift shopping with mum yesterday, it’s quite a strain having to describe everything to her whilst trying to guide her round the displays and being on crutches 😐. It’s far easier when I use the walker then she can hold onto the handles with me. Sounds like Christmas has arrived early for you PK, however the delivery service is horrendous 😲 Taylor and Riley did look cute, thanks M and Pluto they’re growing up too quickly though Pluto isn’t it typical the first thing you do when you’re off is put the washing on 😅 Have a lovely afternoon tea party Rainbow That’s such shame about your mums poinsettia Ditto, especially before Christmas 😟 Actually put the tree up this morning, I think I’ll treat myself to a new one next year I’ve kinda gone off this one Have a lovely afternoon all

I was given a poinsettia by a couple of my work colleagues. I bet I kill it off though! Just battled round Tesco and spent a small fortune! Fingers crossed for the new house Rainbow

Afternoon all. Remember when I said last night that I wasn't ready for sleep? Well that was a big mistake! Barely slept at all, largely due to needing the loo five times 😲
Yes I shall most definitely be watching Les Mis, it does look good doesn't it. I never made it through the book either.

Have you had a chance to catch up with your sleep PK? Wish we could switch our bladders off at night!
Watching Frozen again!

Hey! What is it with us all having sleep problems?? I was up for 330, and started the whole worry process, one thing leading to the next... Health and family, and managing money...it all seems to be so much worse at night! I eventually fell back to sleep just as B was getting up at 530. I didn't nap today, so hoping for a better night! Travis and Jasmine went out earlier this afternoon to pick up her sister at the airport, she lives in San Francisco now, although she was in London for awhile. She will spend some time with all of us, and celebrate Christmas eve at my little sis' , too. She's really nice, and fun to be around. The tea sounds very nice, Rainbow, and something to look forward to as an annual event! Hope daughter and family get moved in soon! Pluto, lol, you sound like me, going to Walmart, checking my receipt to see how I spent so much in such a short time! And that wasn't even groceries, just miscellaneous gifts and gift cards. PK, hope your night is better, and you're not up so much to pee! That seems like a lot of going, lol! After that hysterectomy, I was up every hour, lol, think cos of all the fluids they dripped in me, and then made me drink so I could hurry up and pee so I could get discharged! Not good! Teebs, that is really cool that you do that with your mom! I hope you were able to get some rest! Ditto, have you had chances to go to your place for awhile and give yourself some time alone? Has anyone come to fix the boiler? Not sure what we're doing this weekend, J and T will be in and out, and have made plans to go to an escape room experience that seems to be popular right now. It's them and several of their friends, and then a bar hop after...should be fun for them! Take care all...hugs!

Good morning Antonia was very good for me last night and was asleep by 8.00 so I got some wrapping done. I still have a few presents to buy so aim to be in the town by 9.00 this morning if not earlier. H's friend had enlarged some photos of A and framed them for her. He also got A a lovely doll with doctor bits and a bottle. She took the doll to bed. He's very keen! What is it with us all having sleep problems?? I was up for 330, and started the whole worry process, one thing leading to the next... Health and family, and managing money...it all seems to be so much worse at night! I eventually fell back to sleep just as B was getting up at 530. I didn't nap today, so hoping for a better night! Is it our age, our lifestyles? Or is there so much more to worry about theses days. I do think life is more complicated nowadays Those escape room experiences are popular over here too M. Hope they have fun.

Morning all. Very dark and dank here. Mum's still snoring, now the bedroom is back how it was. Moved it three times this week, to try and make it easier for her, just kept making it worse! She's getting so she can hardly move about. It's perm time today, Deb and Daph are taking us if they get back from Macclesfield in time, Deb's lot are there now. I managed to get to my place this morning, very early, seeing as awake too early as usual. I meant to finish doing my tree, if only for me to see it, but I was too tired and dozed off, got a crick in my neck as I didn't do the pillows not meaning to doze. I'm loving all your doings and plans, this is definitely my favourite time of the year, but I can't wait to see the back of 2018, yesterday being one of the more horrible days. Have a good Saturday all, hope you get everything you planned to do done and dusted!

Afternoon ladies Jings everyone is fairly having problems sleeping 😴 I do hope you all managed to catch up over the weekend Managed to do some wrapping this afternoon, still got quite a lot to do tomorrow, but I’m having to do mums as well . I actually had to chase my son and Harrison as they dropped round just after lunch for a wee visit, but I couldn’t start the pressie wrapping till they went 🙄 I suppose I should make an effort and go and cook. Catch up later

Wow Rainbow, you have a full on social life Mine seems to involve small children and sing alongs The show we went to today was really cute though, Disney princesses, children's characters from and even Batman and Spiderman. Antonia danced with other children during the interval and even joined in a conga which then formed the queue for Father Christmas. She went on stage and was held by Ariel to get a present from FC. It was like being on holiday all over again as she was down the front singing Baby Shark! Hope you are all primped and permed now Ditto Teebs I never catch up with my sleep but just keep going somehow. I'm on automatic! Well done on the wrapping! I have all the presents now but need to wrap

I use'wee' a lot in the usual way but after the other night your wee comment made me laugh teebs 😺
Hope you and your mum did get out Ditto. Give my best to the sisses please.
I had a lovely visit with Tim yesterday and received yet another prezzie. Then this afternoon a very convincing Santa visited,dishing out presents and kisses. I didn't know that he did that kind of thing 🤫He was accompanied by some helpers, one being a man sized panda, WTF?! Then a carer burst in with a camera and made us all have some photos together. This was all very surreal!
Ooh, you made me jump there Pluto! I reckon that kids have far better social lives than adults 😁

If I get a copy I will bite the bullet and share. I must have looked a right state, messy hair and toothpaste down my sage green tee shirt.
Marilyn, you must be enjoying Travis and Jasmine's visit. Remind me how long they are staying.
Rainbow, your social whirl seems to require a lot of stamina to me. Tell us your secret!
I am looking forward to Watership Down at 7pm,the animation looks great in the trailer. We are having some really good telly this Christmas 😻
