Good Morning Sunday 26th November 2023

Good morning from a chilly Bristol. I suspect it is frosty again but haven’t looked out.
Went into Bristol to get fabric and wadding for my latest quilt. Did my shoppers very quickly, then had to wait for nearly an hour for my bus - the one I wanted turned out to be a “ghost”. There is another I could take but the road near me is closed for 3 weeks and I have no idea where I would end up.
Church then fiddling about. I need to choose furniture for my lovely new space in the hall - for my fabric stash and bits, for large baking tins, for coats, shoes, books….
Ash, I hope you enjoyed “elfing” yesterday; Marydoll, hope your time with the littlest raised your spirits.
Have a blessed Sunday. Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from a calm and fine Torbay where it’s less cold than yesterday.

We were pleased to see a steady stream of patrons at the Christmas Fayre with some lovely children wanting to see Santa. I was touched by a couple of donations from adults without children “in case any child misses out on seeing Santa”. Heartwarming! Unfortunately, I was positioned between the external doors for the church and the hall so became quite chilly. On arrival home, I donned fleece PJs and onesie for the rest of the day!

This morning, I’ve been asked to play the piano for the first service as our main accompanist is unwell.
Wishing you all a blessed Sunday. 🦩🥰🦩💐🦩

Good morning from Shropshire.

Good results from my endoscopy yesterday which was such a relief.

Up early today as we are going to collect the children then meet DD2 and family at a Christmas market.

Have the best day you can everyone🌺🦩

Good morning, another frosty morning here, it’s -2°.
Yesterday’s dog walk was lovely, sparkling frost in bright sunshine, warmly dressed so I could enjoy it.
I was restless for the rest of the day, I filled a black bag with clothes for the charity shop, tidied around and fidgeted every time I sat down.
I’ve been awake for a couple of hours so perhaps I’ll get up and find something to do 🤷🏼‍♀️
Hope today goes well for you all 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m glad you had a positive report on your endoscopy, Susan56, and impressed that you were told so at the time.

Morning
I have a question about friends who never want to come to YOUR house or YOUR event. It always has to be the other way around . My DH says it’s fine let it be but sometimes it’s hurtful to be permanently rejected . I seem to attract friends like this. I drop everything to go to them when invited but there always seems to be some reason they cannot attend my invites 🤷‍♀️Would welcome how one deals with this & anyone else sympathise ?

Good morning from cold s somerset, rain forecast all day so it will be bleak as well as cold

Very good news about the endoscopy Susan

Up early today and I have just changed my bedding combo. It will be warm and cosy but a bit lighter in weight. Seeing my smart meter ramping up yesterday, I did reduce upstairs temperatures by half a degree, I was warm all night but the bedding was a little bit too heavy.

I think I will need to add some sewing to my activities today, I have three warm zipped tops to make by christmas

Have a good day

Good morning from a mild, wet Cornwall, where it's quiet as the first bus doesn't go past my window until 8 o'clock. A very relaxed time with my granddaughter yesterday. She used my sewing machine to make a fleece sleeping bag for her toy sheep. Today I'm at a friend's up the road to make felted Christmas baubles and drink her delicious coffee. Then it's church at 4 o'clock.

Morning all from West Oxfordshire. It’s always good to be home after a few days away. We are out for lunch today. Afterwards I/we have preparations for tomorrow’s lunch with old friends. It will be an early lunch as they don’t want to drive home in the dark. Hence, most of the preparations today. I must also check if I have all the ingredients for the Christmas pudding which I can’t mix until Tuesday and steam on Wednesday. Presents for my Australian relatives - I think I’ve got them all but they still have to be wrapped and I want to post them by the end of the week.
Have a good Sunday everyone. I’m sorry to hear that some of you are having difficult times.

Good morning from the Black country where once again it's frosty.
Didn't sleep well last night don't know why but feel drained this morning need to get on though family coming for dinner.
Susan glad you had a positive result with your endoscopy.
Enjoy your day everyone whatever your plans and may you all find some ☀️.

Good morning all.
I can’t believe that the two DGSs ( 7 & 2 ) are still asleep! We did have a busy day yesterday.
Today , the eldest has rugby and little one will be running around te field nearby. Hot dogs afterwards and then we will pop over with them to see their Great Grandmother for a short while.
We’ll have an earlyish dinner and get them packed up for the return of their Mummy and Daddy.
A good day wished for everyone.

Good morning from a frosty Colchester.Rain forecast for later. It was minus 1 when we got home from the wedding around midnight.
It was a fabulous do with marshmallow toasting, pizza a disco and a free bar. I had a couple of large G&T and feel a bit delicate this morning ( lightweight!)
I'm awake because DH, who had a few pints, is off fishing. I'm still in bed though and will probably stay here until the heating warms the house a bit.
I'll walk to Aldi to clear my head later
Roast chicken this evening.
Love to all 🦩 x

Good morning from a chilly W Kent. I will be spending today making a start on the Christmas wrapping which takes ages now and perhaps some card writing. I feel very lazy about it all.
Best wishes to all

Morning from frost in S Hants, light rain due this afternoon. Good news Susan I remember that relief.
Yesterday was sunny but cold, I enjoyed a walk well wrapped up, read the paper and not a lot else.
Today we have a family lunch out, children/partners and grandchildren, we’re looking forward to it.
Enjoy your day, thoughts with those struggling.
🦩🦩

Morning everyone 👋

I have two wriggly GC in bed, will read and post later 🙋‍♀️

Good morning everyone from Severnside. Cold and overcast.

I got on well with my Christmas card making yesterday. I am working to a theme this year with slight variations.
Today I’m spending with Beechnutella. We are going somewhere and then doing some crafting together later. I have to sort out a few bits to take.

Have a good day all 🌺

Good morning from North Yorkshire. Very frosty this morning.
Off the Church then a quiet day reading and knitting. I have a busy week coming up.
Good news Susan.
Have a good day everyone.

I’m also taking some of my decluttering stuff over to hers to clutter up her place 🤣

Good morning, everyone from a chilly south coast. No plans for today so I’ll prepare extra veg for lunch so there’s plenty for soup tomorrow. I’ll also make some gf bread to make full use of the oven. I was supposed to be dog sitting DD’s lovely old Jack Russell (Peggy’s brother) as they’re spending a weekend in London but sadly he had to be PTS last Thursday due to a tumour on his kidney. They’ll miss him but he had a lovely life.
Hope everyone has the best day possible.

Good morning, it’s cool and dry here in South Lanarkshire.

Nothing got done yesterday as I wasn’t feeling great. I’ve still got absolutely no voice which is annoying, I don’t think this has ever happened to me before.

I’ll go to Mass but will skip going to lunch as DH and I would have to sit in silence.

Wishing everyone the best day possible.

Good morning from N Bucks - cold here! A hard frost last night and not a lot of sun this morning.
Hmm, might be a Netflix day.
I thoroughly enjoyed seeing “Passport to Pimlico” yesterday afternoon on BBC2. So many famous faces early on in their career.
Looking around there are various things which need doing, I may have to bite the bullet and procrastinate no longer.
But, then again, there’s my current book
Wishing you all a peaceful and pleasant day.

Morning Mick, morning All from a cloudy corner of Somerset.

Stereo coughing here as we both have covid. Mr C began on Thursday, I caught up yesterday. Thankfully Mr C’s fever has abated and he’s much steadier. I’ve had to catch a couple of times when his BP plummeted. So far I’m staying upright!

Disappointed that we’ve missed a day out to a Christmas market and more importantly needed to cancel tomorrows appointment at the heart valve clinic. We’re still worried in case we left covid with our Wonder Woman, she’s no sign at the moment so 🤞 all will be well.

Guess covid had to find us one day and of course it will pass. We’ve got lovely neighbours who will shop should we need it, for now it’s hibernation time.

Enjoy what you can of the day everyone.

Good morning everyone from a cold and frosty Inverness
Pleased all went well yesterday Susan
No plans until later today when we’ll pick up DGS and bring him back for a sleepover. I’ll try to get a tidy up done in the garden too if it’s not too frosty.
Hope you feel better soon baubles
Thinking of everyone with worries and struggles, hope the day is gentle and take care all whatever the day brings 💐

Good morning and it’s a frosty one. 🥶.
DH is going pond clearing at his fishing club , he’ll be a couple of hours, then back home for a shower and spruce up for lunch out with DS1 and family for another birthday celebration. These birthdays seem to last a whole week these days. 🎂.

I’ll wrap up warm and walk little pooch, so she’ll be fine for the rest of the day.

I must buy some Xmas wrapping paper and start on the parcels. I know there’s some in the loft but can’t be bothered to get up there. Perhaps I’ll ask DS.

Susan a great relief for you 💐.

Take the day as it comes . 🍁🍂
