Good news thread

The Vitamin D tablets the doctor recently prescribed for the other half seem to be working, he managed to cut the grass in one go yesterday (we do not have a lot), and then cleared up after himself. He felt tired afterwards but not worn out.

Our close family will all be in the same place at the same time today. It happens rarely. It's the best thing for me. .

GDs 1 & 2 coming to stay for the weekend as their parents are off a long way away fir a wedding

Really, really trying to think of something....but ....nope, sorry

Good news Dramatic have you started your exercises yet ?

Had my third x-ray and don't need an operation on my broken arm. Huge relief - now the hard work begins getting the full movement back.

Good news today, found a pair of ballroom shoes that fit. Petra, had to head down your way to get them, Benfleet.

Daughter and grandchildren arrive back from holiday tonight

I've got my dgd overnight so there will be fun and cuddles galore tomorrow

I had breakfast with two of my best friends and have spent a happy afternoon cross stitching. Oh and the sun was shining!

I bought three pairs of summer trousers. 2 sizes smaller since I have lost 2 1/2 stone.

Not so good news, one of my bees stung me today, now I can't move my finger. Somewhat surprised that they haven't stung me before.

Waving our arms about,trying to look sexy (which if you've seen my posts re boxers & string vest, could be a step too far)

My sewing machine came back after it's first service( in 15 years )as good as new and I've made a cushion and nearly finished a quilt.

GA, that's wonderful news. You must be so proud of your son. And, come to think of it, he has a wonderful mum too.

Also, I hope your DH appreciates being called The Wonderful Man......the only husband on the forum who is!

Great news for you GA and it is great to have our grown up children living locally.

Our eldest son just sent me a text to say that he has been fast-tracked for promotion in his firm and has been given the senior manager's position that he expected to work another 5-10 years for!!

I am so pleased because he could have gone to work in London for one of the big financial firms, but chose instead to live and work locally and now it's really paid off for him.

I'm so glad this thread exists because The Wonderful Man isn't home yet (he's been away) and I wanted to tell someone.

Liz 46, I can empathise with you. I love your comment about being penniless by end of the day. We went into buy a sound book for our 6 month old granddaughter ( a miracle IVF baby, we have waited 12 yrs for) and spent nearly £40 on books etc. I am so glad to hear your granddaughter is on the mend, the wee lamb.

<gandtea> and <katyk> Sorrento is exceeding all my expectations!
Mr Ever is having a snooze and I'm enjoying a large glass of white on the balcony overlooking the Bay of Naples. I'm in heaven!!!!!
