Hi everyone.
Pauline is not the only one needing the heating on today. It was o'k this morning,but this afternoon I have been sitting here shivering,so th fire has gone on.
I have got to phone my doctor at 4.15,to see if she will give me some more anti-biotics,I just cant seem to shift this bronchitus,and keep feeling like ***t.
So Rita dont send that balloon full off water over please,I feel like a wet weekend as it is,and dont fancy getting any wetter. lol
Hows the hunky workmen today. Are you making the tea for them.
Got all the washing out on the line today,blowing lovely,soon be time to bring it in.
I think I will send the ironing up to Linda. Do you want to load yours in with mine Shelly. It's not as if Linda has anything to do now is it. lol
Hi Liz,good to hear the councelling went well.

Hi Mo no i wont send the water filled balloon up to you being as your not well does anyon e know if anyon wants 20 waterfilled balloons ? lol
Thats vey mean giving Linda your ironing to do.you could always push it under the bed till you feel like doing it. no one will see it there unless you use a goes unde
Th work men are still here and the noise is deafing as my flat is next to the stair cupboard I am getting all the noise as the equipement is kept in that cupboard the door to that opens onto my flat door so if I want to get out I have to say shutting your door for a minute. it is great fun. lol
they were up a ladder drilling some bits into the wall to take some sort of pipe while the gardeners truned up and mowed the lawns so you can guess I am trying to hear someone on the telephone while a big commercial mower is cutting grass and the drilling is going on.
I know they have to do these jobs but two at the same time

I have not see the estate manager today so I have not been able to ask for my beaker back..
i need to make two phone calls but I am leaving that till tomorrow incase I get on and the noise stgarts again.
happy days are here again

Rita

Here I am again.

I am wearing in a pair of new shoes I brough two months ago when I was in London staying with my sister I said they will do for my holiday in July so today I had this great idea of wearing them about the flat to break them in they are breaking in but so are my toes. .

my ankles are swelling as well I hope I am not geting back the trouble I thought I had got rid of.last week.
Oh dear full of woe

Smile and things will go right I think that is what they say. big grin on her face.

Rita

I WILL SHOUT THIS OUT RITA,AS YOU CANNOT HEAR ME VERY WELL.

WAITING TO BE FILLED. LOL

THATS GOOD OF YOU MO BUT WHY WAIT TO FILL THE CUPS WE CAN HAVE TWO WHILE WE WAIT FOR THE OUTHERS TO JOIN US.

DONT TELL THE WORKMEN OR THEY WILL WANT ONE AND THERE ARE FIVE OF THEM I CAN SEE THEM FROM THIS WNDOW.

RITA

Marilyn next time you go on a visit to Portsmouth records office (if you go ) could you look something up for me I put a thread on Records office to get some idea as to how to go about looking for Great uncle Walter and they came back with a few. I knew I would not get a straight forward answer as I could not give one either but next time I would like someone to look up three wedding for me to see if they could be Great Uncle Walters then i can order a marriage certificate. I have no proof he married but someone in the family said there was a chance he had.

Right Rita,I have made the drinks,blooming well need a hot drink tonight,it's flaming cold here. Mind you I have been cold all afternoon.
Now where has everyone gone,have they all hibernated I wonder.

Hi everyone

Thanks for the tea Mo, I needed that, just come in from work and was gasping!

Met my sister yesterday at Bluewater shopping centre, I've not been there before. had a walk round and had coffee and a gossip, my son got himself some dvdsand I bought some face cream!!

x

Hi Yvonne. Did you think that Bluewater is expensive,I certainly do. I would rather go to Lakeside,and it's not that much further. And you could probably have bought your face cream in Boots. lol

I know Mo, its full of designer shops charging high prices, I got the face cream in John Lewis I don't think I would have got it cheaper in Boots. Have'nt been to Lakeside for years

We shall have to arrange a meet at Lakeside Yvonne,I am sure Shelly would come along.

Yes that would be great

Evening All,
I have just got back from my sisters.

I have had my hair done, hubby almost had a fit when I told him how much !!!!

I said to him now look here its been a girlie day today for me don't happen very often....so there is Zero you can do about it .....so there..LOL

I did not tell him about the Jacket or Skirt & Top that I bought its still in the car..
I'll get that out tomorrow when he's not looking !!
Sorted.......

Mo & Yvonne I used to go to Bluewater when I lived in Kent but not been there since my son moved up to Norwich.

Yvonne what sort of face cream did you buy ?

listen to you lot have a conversation on here as though you were on the telphone Blue water and Lakeside I have never heard of bluewater where about is it ? Lakeside I went once on a coach journey one of the clubs locally had a day trip out there one christmas.for christmas shopping. it was quiet dear.
the stuff to buy l mean
I went last year with my sister to White city shopping mall it is suppose to be the biggest they had built it had shops from all over the world there many Paris shops and all the well known name but the prices I nearly died when i saw them shoes £250 I would expect two pairs for that.these were very high heels but only had a couple of straps going over the top I said to my sister have they been finished or is that the start of them.

I must be lucky here as it has been very warm and still is even this time of night. l had my windows opened all day except when they were drilling and I had to close them and when the gardeners were at it as well with their mowers.But I understand they will finish the job tomorrow so thank goodness for that.
Mo I dont need any tea thanks love I am drinking some Ovaltine doing some more reading then going to bed.
Rita

Rita,Bluewater is in Kent,just before the Dartford Crossing,to Essex.
Who's a naughty girl then Marilyn,spending OH's money LOL.
After all,those new clothes have been in your wardrobe for ages,haven't they. Like me when I say I bought them in the sale last year.

(**)? (**)? (**)? {^^}/ {^^}/ {^^}/ [_] [_] [_]

Cuppa's all round

Hope you are all well this morning

Fresh here, and a bit overcast

Have little K coming again this afternoon , so will try to get back after dinner. Hubby on lates so not home til 11:30ish at night.

Nurse will see me in 4 weeks to see if I have managed to loose anything ? Will keep a food diary so I can show her what I eat and then she suggests more blood tests for thyroid and diabetes. As the hospital decreased my thyroxine????? To help with my hair loss WHY I fell asleep yesterday when little M had gone home and don't really want to get up in the morning either.

Oh well have a good day see you alllater

Linda :o) XxX

I dont know that area very well Mo I know places like Ramsgate and Heron I think that is how you spell it.? but other than that not much the bonders all changed so I dont know what part belongs to the kent no
I know Dover is I have been there many times getting the Ferry to different ports.

Yes I think we had better keep our eyes on that Marilyn buying all these clothes and NOT TELLING HER KIND HUSBAND ABOUT IT she had to tell him about her hair do because he could see it.

Good luck to her we only live once and why not enjoy doing things that give us pleasure if we can afford too. you only have to leave it to others to spend.

I am cold today yes I take back what I said yesterday about you all being cold and me warm I woke to a grey sky and a chilly day.

have a good day the workmen will be here soon so I suppose I will have more noise.

love Rita

Hi Linda
I took so long on doing my writing yours appeared before mine so i will say hope the diet goes OK for you and you soon get yourself sorted. we seen to get one thing after another as we go along. my probolem at the moment is swollen ankles when i get up the are lovel and slim and after I have walked about they get swollen and thick like me,

have a nice day

Love Rita

Morning All,

Linda Thanks for the tea.
You should take it easy a bit more, we both seemed to have the same medical ailments.... diabetes.. thyroid...blood pressure. And there is no way that I could do all that you do, and what you have been doing of late.

Take a break and look after yourself, give your body some strength you'll need it before long........DR MARILYN speaking !!

Thats Linda sorted ..LOL

Rita I assume you meant Plymouth Records Office and not (Portsmouth)
as you stated ?
I live in Plymouth, and of course I will go there for you ,just give me the details because I go whenever it suits me, so could be anytime !!

Mo I think its fair play with buying some clothes as hubby does sneakingly buy gadgets from the internet without me knowing, and often I say to him theres a van outside have you ordered anything ? and with a coy look he will say its only a little something for the car or commuter but that little something could buy me another TOP !! LOL often happens like 2 twice a week !
And he's got the cheek to say to me DID YOU NEED those clothes ? Well my answer is.... NO...... but I WANTED THEM ..

Thats they way to do it....LOL

Anyway off for me bath........

Morning everyone.

Thanks for the cuppa Linda, I'm just having a sit down while I wait for the washer to finish, so I'll have my cuppa now.

It sounds to me that you need more Thyroxine Linda, don't know how they thought it would help by reducing it. I would have thought reducing it would make your hair and weight problem worse. I sometimes wonder if they know what they're doing.

Marilyn of course we don't need more clothes, your hubby doesn't know much about women if he thinks we only buy clothes when we need them.....lol

I do the same as you Mo, I keep saying I got things in the sale, he doesn't seem to mind if he thinks I got a bargain.

See Rita, that's what you get for bragging that you had lovely warm weather down there. My North Pole weather came down and got you.....lol

Shelly was another one rubbing it in about her lovely warm weather, I wonder if my cold weather reached her as well.

Yvonne, let us know if the face cream works, I'll order a bucket full if it does.
