Jean,

Great news !

I'm right in there.......CHEERS !

Stephen

Marliyn,

Your hubby and I could almost swap places and feel right at home.

My wife does my hair and eyebrows as well.........can't remember when I was last at a barbers.

Whip ! Do you have the handcuffs as well?

Hi friends, hope all is well with you all. I have wine here, red, white and rose, help yourselves, got the results of my back scan, it is inactive now, so will you join me in celebrating please.

Take care,
Jean xx

LoL Stephen ....... the whisky !!

It pleasurably is the only drink that does make me merry .....

Now as for the chores we share almost the same as you & your dear wife, the only difference is I have a whip !! LOL but Pete does clean my cooker and all the floors , he also cleans bathroom & kitchen , I make the bed and do all the washing & ironing , well not his .......he does his own LOL

I think that's fair don't you ? also I cut his hair he's never been the the barbers all our married life ....trim his eyebrows , well gotta make him look young & respectable .

Mo ....I hate those MRI scans the feeling of being squashed in side a tube just freaks me out, your very brave. hope the results are not too concerning.

Shelly ,I have introduced your thread to a Derek two days ago on TTF so I hope he found who he was looking for.

Dame Shelly,

Have you not hired any servants yet. With your new status you should not be needing to lift a finger......well perhaps to 'snap' them to get some action.

Mo....Hope you get good results soon. Our knees are so crucial to enjoying mobilty.
Try this psychological experiment next time you are out walking..........it really works
.
When you walk imagine that you are walking on eggs and try not to break them. Just walk normally...but imagine the eggs. Get it right and you feel as if you are almost floating.

It may take a bit of practice to get it right but HONESTLY is really does work.

I've been nearly on my knees carrying a heavy pack and used this method to go the extra miles. My wife swears by it when we are out for long walks and she feels tired.

Marilyn.......whether it's WhiskEy or plain old Whisky you will still get drunk......take care.

Rita.....not enough sharing in this world...wish more would do it.

Stephen that is how marriages should be share and share a like my husband and I did that.

Marilyn I am pleased your hospital appointment went OK.

Mo I hope your MRI scan goes well for youI hate those. I find the waiting for results makes me stresesed out.
I am not looking forward to tomorrow either at the eye Hospital .I have a new consultant. and have never met him or her. so it is a bit scary.

I had the other one since 2007..

I have washed my hair but I forgot to turn the heating on and have just started to feel the cold. so my windows are now closed. to shut out Jack Frost..

Did you see the X Factor over the weekend. it appears that Cheryl Cole mimed most of her song. no it is not a rumour it is a fact one of the proudcer reamrked on it tonight.

Rita

Hello everyone.
I have been for my MRI scan today. Fortunately the scan did not include my head being inside the scanner.
It was bitterly cold when we left here at 7.30 a.m, and my feet were sticking out of the end of the scanner, with a cool breeze blowing through the scanner. My poor tootsies were freezing cold,and one foot kept going into a spasm.
But it's all done now. I have to wait for the results to be sent to the physio therapist now, to see what they intend to do about my knee.
They think part of the cartilege may have broken away,causing the Bakers Cyst. Oh well I will wait and see.

I do hope that Mrs Stephen is feeling better now. Do not overwork the poor woman Stephen, she's been a poorly wee lassie.

I have had my second eldest grandaughter here all day. She works in a childrens nursery,and gets all the holidays that schools get,probably the same as Shelly.
She's a proper chatter box, but lovely with it.
We have got to drop her home in a little while,before I go of to darts.

I hope you have all had a good day.

iv just been adding to my grave stone thread been bizzy
wrighting some new ones out but not posted them all just yet

.

evening all
marilyn share your dinner please
i carnt be botherd to cook but i must as this lot will starve with out me

i still have grandson staying here think he is thaying tonite as well
its like a childrens home lol only truble is there all flipping boys

Mrs Stephen is feeling a lot better today.
Thank goodness.
She has the house to clean, washing to do, a pile of ironing that must get done very soon, windows to wash, grass to cut, garden to tidy, cars to wash, dinner to make etc, etc.

Once she does that she can take it easy !!!!!!!!

If she reads this I will need to make a mad dash out the door .......LOL

We share the chores about the house. I help make it untidy, so why shouldn't I help tidy and clean it.
I do the washing....my wife irons.
She usually makes the food.....I wash the dishes.
and so it goes on....share a bit each.
I do the 'heavy' gardening work, my wife adds the finishing touches.

Back later.

Hi Everyone,

Hospital....all OK.

I cant believe that the weather is so good , I wont want to go away .!!

Just got in , so now I'm going to warm up my spaghetti bolls, that I cooked this morning it saves time as I always get a late appointment.
I'm starving......

Back later.

Hello Yvvone.
I have three lovely pink tinted with yellow roses out in my garden and there are around five more buds there as well. also have some yellow daises and white ones in bloom.
I wonder how Marilyn got on to day and Jean I hope you have had some good results Jean.
Stephen I hope your good wife is feeling a lot better today. there seems
to be a lot of people with a flu virus a round here. I spoke to someone in the charity shop this morning when I went shopping, and she said they had three of their staff off with it.
It has started to get cold now. I am going to put the heating on and wash my hair.
I want it to look nice for the hospital tomorrow. otherwise I will look my age.

I wonder where Mo is and Pauline and Liz we have not had her on here for a while now.

well hope to be back leter.

Rita

Afternoon everyone

sunshine but a bit cold here, a bit frosty this morning when I took the dog out

hope Mrs Stephen is feeling better today

Son had his first driving lesson yesterday, he said it was great and has booked again next Sunday.

Half term this week so I'm not at work lunchtimes. I'm doing Sundays in the toy shop up to Christmas, I see a lot of the children from school there, they are always surprised to see me.


OH put some winter flowering pansies in the pots on the patio last week, don't know if they'll do very well we don't get any sun in the back garden in winter
x

weather here in my part of london

sunny but not that warm and no rain yet
i dont have flowers in the flower bed this time of year to windy
o and i have not even pulled up the dead bizzy lizzys yet i what for bonfire nite and the kids will do if thay dont thay carnt have fireworks as there is no other dirt for them to go in

Hi everybody, we've got sunshine today but the water barrels were frozen this morning.

I've been busy on the phone most of the morning trying to get son's wheelchair repaired. The brake was a one-off job specially made for him because he takes the brakes off and shoots off if you turn your back on him. It's not safe for him to be using it without the brake, but the day centre said they'd make sure he wasn't in any danger.

My phone calls have been passed from one office to another all morning. When I finally got the right office.............the person who orders one-off fittings is on holiday. Plus the man who might be able to do a temporary repair on it is on holiday as well. Wonder if they went off together. Anyway - that was a wasted morning!

Rita, at least you didn't get the chance to be bored yesterday, and you got all your little jobs done. Did you have a list for your son?

Marilyn it'll take a long for my toe to mend, it'll be weeks before the swelling goes down. I'm going to look pretty stupid walking around in sandals if it snows.

Marilyn
I hope your check-up goes well today. I do hate these hospital visits. they make you so stressed.
I dread the eye hospital tomorrow as I no my eyes are getting worse..

Yes my Kitchen is about 9 x 6 it is very tiny. in my Bungalow in Norfolk It had a farm house type kitchen ,unite.s right round.had a double oven built in. Hob unit a Fridge. Freezer and large washing Machine and lots of
spare room it led into sun=lounge so when I came here it took ages for me to get use to this little thing. my bathroom had been bigger than this kitchen. still there is only me now.

We have sun shine now but it is very cold the frost is still on some of the cars. I bet it will be extra cold tonight.

I am going to do a ham and lentil soup for dinner. need some warmth.
must go and get the washing out of the dryer now.
be back later.
Rita
