Hey!
Is it my imagination, or the page numbers getting smaller, seems like we were on 316? 🤔 Ditto, you deleting again? 😅😋
Yes, Pluto, I’m missing my son, although I know he needs to be with his wife and dog, I just wish they were closer...it’s a 20 hour drive, so flying is the only way, and B hates to fly! 🤦♀️ Feeling very down in the dumps. But an outing with A sounds like fun, although you should probably be resting! Do you know what might have triggered the vertigo? 🤔😞 90 is an impressive age! 🥳
Ditto, how old is your mom now? If you’re looking for something to cheer you up, rewatch Buffy! I’m on the second season now, and Spike and Drusilla are so awesome together! I’d forgotten about Dru and her dolls!
Rainbow, hope you have a good Friday, and enjoy your time with A!
DeeDee, hope you’re more yourself, have to keep planning places to go, and you’ll get better at it!
Take care all...hugs!

Morning Ditto you keep extraordinary hours! If my mum lives to be a 100 she will have to go into a care home or I will have to sell my house!! Maybe cat food and flowers M, I can't remember what the last page number was It's understandable to have the post Travis blues It's way too cloudy for my liking at the moment. I'd like a repeat of yesterday's weather please. See you later Rainbow. Have a good day everyone

Morning
Ditto why are you not eating solid food? That can't be good for you? Going too low means your body just hangs on to every calorie it gets. If l get in the 11s l'll be very happy
Post Travis blues are inevitable Marilyn, would you plan a visit on your own? I'm guessing if they have a baby you'll want to see them a lot more
Looking forward to seeing you later Pluto, l have a work dilemma to discuss with you and C, hope Antonia doesn't find it too boring! Was the new bed for her or the spare room
I'm off to town after l drop Alex at school then home to do some chores before lunch, its going to be a busy day
Have a great day everyone

Lovely day. Antonia had fun in the garden and also planted Sunflower seeds, cat grass and cress to grow indoors. Nice lunch with Rainbow, our friend and her baby then a scoot around the town after collecting H from work. I also took H for her first vaccine. I'm feeling tired now. I have Antonia again tomorrow then we are taking H to the hospital for her scan. Not sure if we will go home or sit in the car and wait I have an upcycled piece of furniture coming tomorrow too. It's a unit with doors, shelves and drawers, painted pink with crystal like handles!. It will be filled instantly!
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Hey! I’m watching Alien Covenant with B, not really into it, I love the original Alien movies with Ridley. These poor crewmen are dropping like flies! 😳😋 I went out to check my little garden, and one of my yellow moss roses had been dug up again! Luckily the root ball was still intact and I was able to replant it! That pesky armadillo has got to go! 🤦♀️
It’s a holiday long weekend here. Memorial Day, remembrance of fallen military.
Pluto, that was quite a day with friends and family! No wonder you’re tired! I hope you have a good night’s rest! Good luck to H with the scan, hopefully they can help her! Are you not allowed to go in with her?
Rainbow, you’re getting in more visits with Pluto, which is nice! Do you have any plans for the weekend? Does S have to work?
Ditto, you posted right before me, and I didn’t even realize you were on here! I hope you were able to get some rest time to make up for it! I’ve never been able to do the liquid diet, it Does Not fill me up like it says, and if you look at the calories you could have a sandwich or even a diet frozen meal. B and I are back to eating better after completely eating anything we wanted while Travis was here. 🤦♀️😞Trying to keep track of calories, and the frozen Healthy Choices are not bad, do those for lunch.
Take care all...hugs!

Morning Hope H's appointment goes well She rang me earlier. Her arm is stiff and very painful and like a dead weight so she won't be able to work today. She's panicking. I need to get out and buy painkillers for her. She had the Phizer but apparently it affects younger people more. Antonia is helping her dress1 The first Alien film completely freaked me out M and i've never watched any since. I'm such a wimp lol! Your poor rose. He certainly is pesky! It's only one person per appointment still I believe at the hospital and the GP and also at Martial Arts and elsewhere like the supermarket though people don't stick to that rule. Rainbow, have a fabulous time. Will S water whilst you are away?

Ditto I hope you win more than my usual fiver. Are you out celebrating 🤣 Great load of goodies you got.
I've just been sorting out the new unit but I've come outside as it's a hot inducing job!
I've had the girls here most of the day but they are home now. I spent a couple of hours in the Park with Antonia too. We watched the fabulous Friends Reunion too and laughed and cried. Antonia has been brought up on Friends as H is a mega fan and is quite familiar.
H was in and out really quickly with her CT scan as it was very quiet at the hospital. I might indulge in a low G&T tonight!
Hope all is going well at your daughter's Rainbow.

What a shame Rainbow. I was looking forward to your post.
James Cordon is Marmite but was actually quite insignificant amongst the 6 Friend's actors. It was fabulous. You must watch it Ditto.
I watched Highlander. That Queen soundtrack is amazing. A remake is being made with Henry Cavill. At least he knows how to handle a sword with all that Witcher practise.
I just found a Nightwish concert on You Tube that I almost paid to watch but didn't because I didn't think I'd cope with the tech of watching it virtually. No bed for a while yet!

Hey!
Saturday flew by, nothing accomplished, just got Gabe’s room back to right, which should have been done during the week! 🤦♀️ Gabe and I started O Brother Where Art Thou, really enjoying it, we’ll finish Tuesday when he comes over for a sleepover.
Ditto, I can imagine the fun you had with your sisses, they remind me so much of mine, good company! Hope you and your mom get a good rest and you’re ready for a little gardening in the morning. It must be a lot to keep up with, my little garden is much smaller but still needs lots of time. 🌸
Pluto, glad H’s scan went quickly, when will she get results? Time with A is always special, making good memories! 🤗
Rainbow, how’s things with Henry and family? A must be so tickled to be included in the trip! 😎 Will he miss a day or two of school? Enjoy your granny time!
Cyrus and DeeDee, hope all is well with you! Are you off for the Memorial Day holiday, Cyrus?
Take care all, hugs!

Morning
We got to E's an hour ahead of schedule and although l had messaged to say we were coming early she was cross l hadnt asked if it was OK as they weren't ready for us 🙃 l said l would take Alex to the park but he didn't want to go, the day improved after that though
Sil took Alex out for a walk and l played with Henry, he was very happy to see us, he's been poorly with a cough and cold but cheered up
E has not had enough sleep for months and was very grumpy at times, l spent hours doing the garden because she said how much it was bothering her, then another hour cutting the grass in the back while sil took Alex and Henry for a walk, when they got back E was cross again because l hadn't helped in the house! I'm hoping things will be better today...
Sil bought a giant transformer for him and Alex to play with which they've had great fun with
I was asleep before Alex last night, we are sharing a futon although l have an extra single mattress on my side, Alex snuggled up with me most of the night and woke at 4 45 to ask if it was time to get up! He went back to sleep until 6 and is watching Transformers on YouTube in bed now
There is swimming booked for us all today but if Henry isn't well enough l'll look after him while the others go in
Hope you got everything sorted with judo and you can get to your Mums today Pluto
Its May Bank Holiday here Marilyn so we get an extra day off too
Have you found out how much your win was yet Ditto?
Have a great Sunday everyone, fingers crossed for good weather

Morning Very late night for me at gone midnight so a late start today. M, no idea about H's results. Do you have plans for Memorial Day? A is having lots of bonding time with Uncle P, Rainbow. It's lovely that they will grow up in a close relationship. I hope Henry is feeling better soon. H and A will get a taxi for the Martial Arts Grading. h said it's a serious occasion and the children have to be very well behaved. Only parents of the younger ones are allowed in. I am picking up Aunty Pat at 2.00 to go to Bognor. She hasn't seen mum, her cousin for a very long time, maybe a couple of years or more. Have a good day

Hope you and Auntie Pat had a lovely visit Pluto
Books are nice Ditto but cash would have been nicer
We all managed a swim, Henry loved it and managed about 20 minutes, Alex did 30 then didn't like the splashing from other children playing so wanted to get out
Beautiful afternoon in the garden with a late lunch of bbq food (cooked indoors as we ran out of time)
Alex is snuggled next to me watching Transformers on YouTube, think an early night is needed

What a hot day and great to be back in sandals I took aunty Pat to visit mum and they had a great time catching up. They have 182 years between them but they mainly spoke about the war and their childhoods. I must get to bed earlier tonight! Antonia passed her grading and is now a Purple belt. No parents were allowed in though. It's very strict! Ditto, I'd rather win money! Plus my book shelves are heaving! Well done on the swimming Rainbow. Do you like Transformers? There are some things that Antonia watches that I can't bear but I still feel guilty for looking at my phone instead! the garden time sounded lovely.

Morning
Another restless night with Alex waking at 4! He did go to sleep earlier last night though and went back off until 6, l'm looking forward to having the bed to myself tonight
Alex does not want to go home today, he's been complaining about it since yesterday
Are your Mum's new hearing aids working well Pluto? I'm glad she enjoyed seeing her cousin
Ditto the weather has made all the gardens twice the work this year, so overgrown and full of weeds, just do what you can and leave the rest as a wildlife haven for nature 😀
Hope everyone enjoys the bank holiday, any plans?

Morning Mum and Pat were both evacuated but to different places. They feel they lost some childhood and had disrupted education. Mum always tells the same story about being stranded in London after going to the lying of state of George 6th and Pat's dad picking her and her friend up at Victoria and taking them to their Putney flat. The flat was on the Thames and would be worth a fortune today! Rainbow her hearing aids are so much better, They had proper conversations. Pat is still willowy and beautiful at 92. She's such an elegant dresser. Ditto, like Rainbow said gardens have gone wild this year but do keep a meadow patch. It is No Mow May at the moment anyway. Sue has a wild area and I've said to leave it for wildlife. There is a fabulous meadow area in peckham Park that has been left as tall grasses and wild flowers. Cultivated lawns and posh gardens are out Is that Luke who is 18 Poor Alex. he must be having such a good time. Can't he stay till you return on Thursday though you would have more disrupted nights! I'm back to Bognor with the girls today. I hope the traffic is better! I might try the loft hatch too as I have a pile of boxes that need to go up there.
