Good Morning Monday 2nd September 2024

Good morning from cool, cloudy Lancashire.

There is a ‘bite’ to the air today. The Reynauds gloves will be worn. Today’s plan is laundry and an audiobook later .

Happy Monday 🌹

Good morning from a very damp east coast of Fife. The rain kept me awake throughout the night but that won’t stop me shopping for my holiday clothes.

I’m off to NEXT followed by a Costa coffee then I’ll pick up a few things from Sainsburys as my friend is coming for lunch on Friday.

We’re going to have a good old catch up I’ve not seen her for a number of years

Enjoy your day my friends and keep safe. 💐

Good morning, Michael and all GNs. It seems that here in South Yorkshire we are getting the rain today that we were supposed to have had yesterday. I had a horrendous bout of diarrhoea last night just as I was about to go to bed. No idea where that came from other than that I had eaten four pieces of fruit during the day. It has left me rather drained so a quiet day with no fruit, and not much else, today!
Have the best day you can folks.

Good morning from a dampish Torbay with a cloudy day in prospect.

I do admire you grans who have the care of grandchildren. Lately, I find it’s enough just looking after me! I’m absenting myself from the exercise class today to give my knee the best chance of any benefit from the injection. Sadly, the familiar pain and stiffness was evident in the night. ☹️

My DGD starts high school this week, too, RosesandLilac and is very excited about going! A special time for them.

Have a good day, everyone! 🦩🥰🦩💐🦩

Good morning from a soggy hillside in south Glos, it’s drizzling here.
We had a tremendous thunderstorm yesterday afternoon, the poor dog was terrified and hid herself under my craft table where she always retreats if there’s shooting or loud bangs. The rain was very heavy for half an hour so the garden had a good drench.
I had a lovely video call from DS, DDIL and the DGCs who’ve been abroad all summer. I love catching up with them. The boys go back to school Wednesday, older GS starting senior school. They’ve had a lovely summer, including a week glamping in Austria.
I have taken my embroidery down into the summerhouse so I will happily sit and start a new one today.
I hope you have a good day 🌹

Good morning from Malta. Weather, as usual, is hot and humid.

Had a lovely visit from DD1 yesterday, good to catch up with all her news. It’s so good having her here, I’m dreading her going back to DC although I ought to be used to it.

No particular plans today but with two dogs at home my floors definitely need a good clean. I can see little and big paw marks all over the tiles. I wish they’d learn to wipe their feet!

Hope you manage to get your nap Grandmabatty, it’s hard work looking after a little one when you are trying not to nod off. 😴

Wishing you all a good day.☀️

Good morning from a dark Bristol. Rain is forecast. I hope we get more than yesterday’s half hour heavy shower in the late afternoon.
I had a quiet day, church with my last setting up of toys for children this year. No child oriented arrangements in the summer holidays.
Today, I’m shopping,I haven’t been to the supermarket for three weeks and the cupboard is bare. I top up with veges from the greengrocer, milk from the coop…
Hygienist in the early afternoon, then “drop in” at DD’s with the girls’ school skirts that I was asked to shorten!
Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩

Good morning from s somerset and it is a dull -sky start to the day

The whole of yesterday was spent in going through the remainder of my hand made wardrobe items and now I have a proper file with card inserts, photo, comments and a swatch, one item per page. It took a lot of work but enormously satisfying. There are only two toiles that I would not make again and my mojo has been fired up to tackle the unfamiliar pattern brands in future years

Today is enjoyable craft group, more chat than craft at times, lovely people, older women together are such fun

Not sure about the rest of the day, might do some cleaning

Have a good day

Good morning Mick and others from Polmont where it's currently 14° and pitch black. It has rained off and on most of the night. The forecast was for thunder but I haven't heard any.
Yesterday I didn't do as much as I wanted. I did make lime curd in the morning but the day seemed to run away with me. I visited mum in the afternoon but she didn't want to talk.
Today is early childcare day. I had a broken night and was awake for a few hours,so I'll need a nap as well as dgs2. School and playgroup drop off then pick up after. Dgs2 told his mummy he wanted grandma's soup so that is what he will get. Have a good day all.
