Mornin all~~~~~

Poached eggs on muffins and side order of bacon for you know who

Was off work yesterday, some sort of bug that made me feel weak as a kitten. Today, I feel like I have been trampled by a horse

Good morning all :-)

Well, you too 'old codgers' sound like you are ready to be 'put out to pasture' ;-) :-D :-D - Hope you feel better soon <3

The bacon is lovely and crispy Ginns - just how I like it - Thank you :-D :-D

Morning :-D


Thank you for missing me but it's a bit like Linda said.....life getting in the way. :-D


I do pop on everyday in the morning to put a prayer on the Christian thread and have been joining in a faith school discussion and I also pop back and do my messaging. The boards certainly aren't what they used to be though.

However, I have been busy in the real world, nothing exciting, just time consuming and have been given more soldiers to research.

So I am here.........sort of.... :-D

Sounds as though you are a load of old crocks at the moment anyway! ;-)

Bye >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Nice to see you Cynths <3 <3

It must be really interesting researching all those old soldiers - do let us know if you get stuck 'coz there is not much to 'get your teeth into' on here nowadays ;-) :-D

Have a lovely day...............

Phew,

One GD delivered to nursery.

Shopping done and other GD reading books so now OH and I can have breakfast.

Asked O if she wanted to go to the beach after nursery.

"No gran I want the pool out in the garden" :-D

That's fine as I think it might get too hot at the beach and it means F can get for a sleep this afternoon :-)

Nice to see you Cynthia :-)

Gins hope you are feeling more like yourself today <3

I feel better today except for the aches

Just bought a blood pressure monitor........now I need to work out how to use it!

Mornin all~~~~~~~

Toasted teacakes and muffins with lots of 'unsalted' butter

Yesterday, watching BBC breakfast news, they stated that food has not come down in price but the price 'rises' have slowed down

Today, they are saying that prices have come down! Interviewing a market tradesman, he refuted the idea that prices had come down

Well, just shows, you cant believe everything on the news ;-)

Thanks for the lovely teacakes Ginns <3 I hope you don't mind though but I brought my own butter ;-) :-D :-D

See you later,

Dea Xxx

Gins be careful you don't raise your blood pressure trying to work out how to use that monitor ;-)

Todays task is just a quick tidy up then who knows :-)

I don't mind you having salted butter Dea.......it's much nicer

Worked the machine Linds

Reading at the hospital was sky high 233/110, that was last Wednesday. When I saw the nurse, I asked her to take it again on her non electronic machine and it read 177/95...........bit of a difference eh

As you know, been on a no salt/caffeine diet, lots of bananas and hula hoop at a pace for 10 mins a day. Today my reading was 122/91


Mind you, they wrap the cuff so tight at the hospital, it nearly blows my arm off before it starts to inflate! And they take the reading, stood up, in the middle of the corridor, hardly conducive to being relaxed

If I don't wrap the cuff correctly on my machine, it tells you (so Im happy I'm doing it right) and although I wrap it tight, I don't stop the flow of blood!

Hubby suffers from what they term 'white coat hypertension' - whenever they take a reading at the surgery or the hospital it is always sky high but when he takes it at home it is fine ;-) :-D :-D Apparently this is quite a common syndrome................

Dea x

Dea

That's what the nurse said to me 'white coat syndrome' That's why she told me to measure it at home

What I find strange, it despite my pressure being dangerously high, none of the medical team have mentioned what to do or even mentioned it all after the reading.....I find that odd

Anyway, I'm not thick, so took into my own hands

I'm also not taking the meds they gave me for my hands.....can cause: lung damage, liver damage, reduce the immune system, can lead to death...that's just a few!

I will take back my scrip and ask for something that's not going to kill me

:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Mornin al~~~~~~~~~

Ann :-) :-)

Scrambled eggs, wholemeal toast and a bucket of crispy bacon for Dea & Cyns

Thank you Ginns - I was just about to make a start on breakfast but you have beaten me to it by hours !!!!! - Could you not sleep?

Dea Xxx

I went to bed at 9.00pm and figured I'd finish the Abe Lincoln book.........fell asleep almost right away!

Morning all boy you were real early birds today ;-)

Washing all done I love getting it out to dry.

Son went into the loft and brought down my suitcase with my summer clothes in it.

Bet it rains now ;-)

Linds.......kiss of death!

Been odd here today, very dull and humid until now SUNSHINE and hot

Was thinking about the England match earlier and thought about our Jonesey. We would have had some banter over it :-)

Gins yep Jonesey would have loved it

It hit 27c today.

We went out for lunch then did the food shop.

I have just put another washing out,

thinking of having toasted cheese for dinner as we are still full from lunch :-D
