I am sad to say that there was no Cake of the Day today, and not even an afternoon cuppa. But at teatime proper, which is usually around 5.15ish, the dessert was a light orange gateaux. I am still having queasy moments so not eating very much but Hope slid down very nicely.
Ugh, chest infections are awful. Hope you start to feel a bit better soon Pluto.
Marilyn, your impromptu break sounded like fun! Is that casino in NO or further afield?
Teebs, hope you are no longer creaky from your play date. I don't know about you but if I am sitting comfortably I sometimes forget about the ouchies... until the next time I want to do something and then it's wham bam, back to reality.
I was going to watch Call The Midwife but only got as far as the arrival of Miriam Margolyse. Next thing I knew Match of the Day was on and the night nurse was dishing out meds.

Hey! PK! Good to see your post! Hope the little cake settles nicely in your tummy! Lol, you were watching like B does...he puts on a movie, sleeps thru it, wakes up after it’s over and wants to know why I changed the channel! 🤣🤣 Island View is about an hour east from NO, right on the Gulf coast...very pretty area, pretty much rebuilt from scratch after Katrina’s storm surge wiped out the area. Pluto, hope you’re better, and the coughing doesn’t keep you up! Do you take NyQuil/Night Nurse? Have the new Walking Dead started up yet? Rainbow, nice that you had a good weekend, hope work is better for you! Teebs, I really wanted to go to the movies to see B R but never made it, either! Ditto, thanks, the group playing with him are his ensemble group, and they are all talented kids! I wish the sound was a little better on the phone, but that’s all we had. 😎 I love Romancing the Stone, so funny, love when she slips down the waterfall! All your house pics are so good! B and I are watching new Walking Dead, it’s amazing how juicy the zombies 🧟♀️ are after so long, lol! I’m looking forward to Skyping with Travis right after! Take care all...hugs!

Ah, the Gulf Coast means that it was a proper jaunt then, how nice 😍
Yes, not only did I miss most of CTM but I had wanted to watch Baptiste as well 😾 Did anyone else catch it? Are they standalone episodes or serial?
Right, think I have made myself sleepy enough again so will shut up now.

Sorry to hear your tummy is still not right PK, hope your meds are back to normal now. Any flat news? Hope all is well north of the border Teebs? How are you getting in with the new phone?

Just been woken up by the loud drugs round nurse and have sloshed water all down myself into the bargain. A double whammy wake up call 😾 One of the gents round the corner is sounding remarkably chipper though, singing away to himself and therefore quite a few of us too.
🌈 Rainbow, have you ever had physio for your knee before? What did they do/get you to do?

Afternoon all☀️ it’s a lovely day, D has even put my washing out 😃 Teebs, hope you are no longer creaky from your play date. I don't know about you but if I am sitting comfortably I sometimes forget about the ouchies... until the next time I want to do something and then it's wham bam, back to reality. I shouldn’t really get on the floor, but I can’t resist when Riley wants to play 😌. I totally get what you’re saying about forgetting the ouchies when you’re comfy, but I find mornings worse, I wake up feeling fine, then I try to move to get up and ....wham that’s it 🙄 but at least I’m still semi mobile so I shouldn’t complain. I’m loving my new phone Rainbow 😁 the only downside is remembering all the passwords to get back into the apps 🙄 old age strikes again 😅. I hope you get a quick appointment for the physio before your knee gets any worse 🤗 Enjoy your day off. 😂😂 love your description of the zombies 🧟♀️ M, I used to watch the Walking Dead with D, but I’ve missed a lot and haven’t picked it up again 😐 Hope you’re good today Ditto, I loved looking through your photos of your flat 😃 I really hope you’re doing better today Pluto, take care 🤗 Catch you all later 😊

Hi PK. I had a lot of private physio when it first flared up. He does some kind of electro therapy that reduces the swelling and exercises to do at home. I haven't been since before Christmas because I've been able to keep it in check with the exercises and resting but it's beyond that at the moment.. I've got an appointment for 10 tomorrow

Pluto, that was more like one of Rainbow's drunken posts! Keep resting up.
Rainbow, good luck with the physio. Did you decide what to do about time off work?
Teebs, in real life I'm the same as you in the morning but here or hospital there is little option but to be launched into the day too soon. Counter productive for me.
Off to watch the football now. Come on you Blues!

Hello. You all sound very chatty and busy I'vw got fuzzy brain and can remember some of what I have read and haven't got the energy to keep scrollimg. Or changing spellings either. PK I hope the Blues can pull it out in the second half. I suppose it depends on how they are playing tonight. Rainbow good luck with physio and work whatever you decide. Teebs, take it easy with the kids though i know its easy said than done. I had Anotonia on my shoulders last week then suffered. Ditto, you've been busy with the piccies. Love them! M, it was good to come away from IV wit winnings after an enjoyable break. DeeDee hope you are keepunf well. I'm still suffering with the cough, big temperature swings, no appetite and tiredness. H still has her chest infection so we are muddling through. We are watching lots of Disney films. Notimpressed with the side affects of the cough at all as I am constantly flooding. I coud tell you about last night but it's probably tmi! I'm getting low on Tenna too. I managed a bath this morning as I thought I wasprobably smelling like an old lady. Bubbles but not too hot as I was worried about doing a Whitney. Freezing again now so should probably go to bed.Night all

Just been for wee look at daughters new house, it’s in a mess at the minute while the gas boiler is being moved and the electrics need re-wired then it’s getting decorated 😳, but she wanted me to see before and after 😀
Good luck at the physio Rainbow 🤗
Enjoy the football PK, I hope your team wins 😊
Nice to see you posting something more legible Pluto, but I think bed is a good idea, take care 🤗

Hey! Pluto, hope you're better! And H and A, too! It's going to be a long haul with the congestion, seems to always linger! Does your meds have expectorant in them, cos that would help a lot! PK, not posted late again, so I hope that means you're tucked up sleeping! Did your team win? Teebs, exciting to get a new house, and be able to decorate it the way you want! How's your mom doing? Ditto, the paint job in the hallway came out very nice, lovely color! I hope you can find some carpet runners at a low price somewhere so you can get the floors done like you want! It's a nice place!! Rainbow, are you back at work, or did you take some extra time off! Meal out with the family sounds really great! Deedee, hope you're doing ok! B and I went to the movies again today, but we each went to a different movie! I went to see 'Isn't It Romantic' with Rebel Wilson and Liam Hemsworth, it was cute and funny. B went to see Prodigy, but he found it disappointing, was about reincarnation, not scary like he thought it would be. They both started about 10 minutes apart, and ran the same length of time, so we were out about the same time. Hardly anyone in either movie, doesn't seem worth it to even have these early morning shows! Take care all... hugs!

If it's too much then leave Rainbow *hugs*
I don't know those films M but I like both actors.
Haven't been able to get the right meds as it means leaving the house and we've been too I'll. I've self diagnosed from the NHS web page. It recommends hot honey and lemon so I'm on that. It takes 7 to 10 days to clear up and 3 weeks for the mucus to shift. I'm on day 4 so a long way to go yet. I will try and get dressed and go over the road to the pharmacy today. We should have put the meds on the online shop but it was getting over my limit. I have cash to use so need to make a big effort.
Must ring the care home and see how mum is with laryngitis.
Hoping the day is good for all.
Teebs how exciting for your daughter and the new house.

Hello ladies 😃 Not too bad out if a little overcast, just back from a run up to the co-op to top up on the groceries 😃
Mum is doing well this week M, thanks for asking 🤗 I must keep a look out for all these movies you’re seeing 😉
Rainbow you take it easy at work if you can 🤗
I hope you made it to the pharmacy Pluto and that you manage to get something that helps 🤗. Also fingers crossed that your mums laryngitis is better ☺️
Loving the washouse at your new flat Ditto what a good idea, no need to clutter the kitchen with washers and dryers 😃
PK commiserations on the game last night 🥺 I sincerely hope you get a damn good cake today to help ease the loss 🤗

Ditto do you watch the news? There's big controversy over that girl.I shan't go into it here.
I staggered over to the pharmacy, half dressed in my pyjamas with dreadful hair. The pharmacist wouldn't let me have anything. He said I should go to the doc's but they were at full capacity when I rang so will try tomorrow.
Rainbow, sounds like you are tak8ng it a day at a time.
I rang the care home. Mum is still confined to.her room but is getting better.
