MORNING VIV,  I AM DOG TIRED ELWOOD WOKE ME UP AT 3AM AMJD WOULDN,T LET ME GO BACK TO SLEEP SO I ENDED UP GETTING UP I COULD THROTTLE HIM HE HAS JUST STOPPED MEOWING AT ME IN ALL THAT TIME ALL BECAUSE HE DIDN,T WANT THE FOOD I GAVE HIM I HAD TO MIX IN A NEW ONE AND THERE NOW IS SILENCE.  AT 7,30 AND IT,KS TOO LATE TO GO BACK TO BED ARRRRGH I WON,T TAKE MUCH ROCKING TONIGHT LOL
HOW DID I MANAGE TO GO TO THE GP ON THE WRONG DAY? I DID MY USUAL AND WROTE IT ON THE CALENDER WRONG. I HAVEN,T DONE THAT FOR AGES, GLENN WAS GOOD ABOUT IT BUT HE DID PULL A FEW MUSCLES IN HIS LEGS AND CHEST. I WASN,T EVEN AT MY OWN SURGERY. ANYWAY THEY MANAGED TO GET ENOUGH BLOOD MY BLODD PRESSURE WAS FINE AND THE RESULTS WILL GO BACK TO MY GP EITHER TODAY OR TOMORROW AND HE WILL RING ME, IT WAS A FULL BLOOD COUNT AND SOME SPECIALISED TESTS ONE WAS TO SEE HOW MUCH CALCIFICATION I HAVE IN AN ARTERY TO MY HEART THAT ONE WORRIES ME THE MOST AND THERE WAS  QUITE A FEW MORE WHICH I CAN,T REMEMBER I,LL JUST HAVE TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY AND WHAT ROAD I,M GOING DOWN NEXT.
JUST AFTER I HAD MESSAGED YOU YESTERDAY IT STARTED SNOWING AND WE HAD A BLIZZARD AND IT HAS SETTLED IT WAS MINUS ONE WHEN WE WENT OUT AND IS NOW. IT WILL BE THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE FOR YOU SOON AND YOU WILL BE COMPLAINING IT,S TOO HOT AGAIN LOL WHAT DAY DO YOU GO REMIND ME AND HOW LONG THIS COLD IS STILL LLURKING AND I SILL HAVE A HEAD FULL OF COTTON WOOL.
SARAH RANG ME YESTERDAY WE TALKED FOR 20 MINUTES A WORLD RECORD ANYWAY HER,BEN ARCHIE AND HARRY AND I,M PRESUMING GLENN ARE COMING FOR CHRISTMAS DAY AND HER BEN AND HARRY ARE COMING ON BOXING DAY FOR A FEW HOURS SO I,M HOPING NOTHING CHANGES.
WHY DON,T YOU SWEET TALK P. INTO PUTTING ALL YOUR DECORATIONS UP WHILE YOU ARE AWAY AND WRAP WHAT YOU HAVE BOUGHT? I BET IT WOULDN,T WORK BUT IT,S WORTH A TRY.
ONE MORE CUPPA THEN I NEED TO GET DRESSED AND THROW SOME COLD WATER AT MY FACE TO WAKE ME UP.

Good morning x

GOOD MORNING VIV, I,VE GOT A STINKER OF A COLD I CAN BARELY SWALLOW THE ONLY THING THAT GOES DOWN IS ICE CREAM AND TOO MUCH OF THAT AND YOU KNOW HOW THAT AFFECTS ME I,VE NEARLY LOST MY VOICE I SOUND LIKE A CROAKY OLD FROG LOL I HAVE TO GO TO THE DOCTORS TOMORROW TO GET MY BLOOODS DONE AND I DON,T WANT TO MISS ANOTHER APPOINTMENT AS I HAVE TO HAVE IT DONE THREE TIMES. I CAN GET FREE COVID TESTS FROM THE CHEMIST  BUT MY SHOPPING IS DUE I HAVE TODAY TO FINISH MY LIST SO I MIGHT AS WELL BUY ONE FROM THERE THIS TIME AND HOPE I DON,T SPREAD MY GERMS,  I DAREN,T ASK GLENN TO GO TO THE CHEMIST FOR ME AS WELL THOUGH I KNOW HE WOULD.  HARRY HAS A LOT TO ANSWER FOR LOL IT MUST BE 20 YEARS OR MORE SINCE I HAD A COLD.
AS FOR DOING THE VASES I HAVEN,T A CLUE WHAT I NEED I HAVE GONE THROUGH THE WHOLE LIST AND I HAVEN,T FOUNF OR SPOTTED WHAT I NEED I MUST HAVE MISSED IT SOMEHOW AND HAVEN,T THE DIAMONDS TO START DITCHING PLANTS SO I AM TRYING TO SPOT WHAT I THINKI IT COULD BE. I HAVE A LIST AND HAVE EVERYTHING CROSSED OFF BUT THE SNABBIT BUT JUST CAN,T SPOT ONE I SHALL JUST KEEP MY VASES OUT AND HOPE I COME ACROSS THE RIGHT ONE EVENTUALLY. I,LL WRITE ANOTHER LIST AND PROBABLY HAVE TO START FROM SCRATCH SPOTTING AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. THER ARE SO MANY CRITTERS FOR THESE IT WOULD BE  EASY TO MISS THE ONE YOU NEED THEY ARE GETTING HARDER AND HAVE USED UP ALL MY DIAMONDS WHICH I AM BUILDING UP VERY SLOWLY JUST SPOTTING WHAT I CAN FOR NOW IT,S SO FRUSTRATING. HALF AN HOURS MORE SPOTTING THEN I,LL HAVE TO STOP AND START MY SHOPPING. HAVE A GOOD DAY VIV AND CHAT LATER XX

tadpole alert now if you need them

3. Colin is working today. He does door to door drop offs on the West coast, Lochcarron, Shieldaig etc, then a click & collect in Torridon. He has just sent me a video where it is snowing heavily & saying he will be late home tonight. I hope we don't get snow. I like cold crispy frosty sunny days but not snow & not wet windy days either. Shame about your quest. I think you're brave doing the advanced quest. I am just repeating the easy one. I think I've done it about 7 times now but I haven't got bored with it yet :-)

2. I have done Slimming World in the past & it did work for me but you have to stay on it once you reach your goal weight which I didn't. I do cook a lot of Slimming World meals though as I have quite a few recipe books of theirs. I hope your summer clothes all fitted well & weren't too big! Do you know a neighbour who is a very spritely 82 bought a beautiful pale blue lacy dress for her grandsons wedding (which was yesterday in Gloucestershire) She trailed round loads of shops unti she got the perfect matching shoes, bag & fascinator and when I spoke to her on Wednesday evening - she was flying to her daughters on Thursday -  she said she had no outfit for the wedding as she hadn't tried the dress on in the shop months ago when she bought it & now it's too tight! So the moral of the story is always try clothes on. Lol. It's much colder here now. We had a delivery of logs this morning for the fire & I am enjoying sitting in front of it now x
