Buenos dias hoy es Dia de Andalucia. Good morning today is the Day of Andalucia, A time to celebrate when Andalucia and its 6 provinces obtained a certain amount of autonomy within the Spanish state. Everything closed, except the bars of course, and many and noisy celebrations. My reading today is 8.
I meant to add to my dentist report post yesterday that the filling needing done is actually a chip rather than a hole in the tooth which makes me even more happy (weird possibly but at least it's not that my brushing isnt up to scratch you know lol)
Anyways 6.2 for me and nose feeling a bit stuffy again, hopefully it wont come to anything but if Bruce would just stop coughing and sneezing without covering his nose and mouth then I might stand more of a chance! Why do some seem to lack in common sense/decency?
Away to have breakfast and cuddle up on the sofa as its absolutely freezing so wrap up warm and have a good Friday my lovelies
Xx
Morning on a glum morning. 7.1 today. Babysitting day followed by a big shop after dropping her off. Oh the excitement is unbearable, I can barely contain myself! 😉 TGIF to all the wage slaves out there. Have a fabulous Friday. 🙂
Good morning 8.2 after getting into the 20’s last night with a non functioning cannula. 4 units of correction insulin delivered down my skin instead of under it. Never a dull moment! 🙄
Disappointing 7.6 this morning, no idea why!
Saw MSK physio Tuesday and already have appt for 6th April to see orthopaedic surgeon about my shoulders, that’s good.
Seeing periodontist next Friday re my teeth, absolutely dreading it as per usual. £150 for the privilege of him having a look and working out a quote for the work. Have to see someone else re root canal treatment to see if tooth can be saved, can’t bear it - I’m not brave where teeth and eyes are concerned, anything else I can cope with.
Urology MDT meeting next week.
So fun and games for me over the next few months.
Stay well everyone x
Morning all, 5.3 here. The snow lasted all of two hours yesterday. Now I gather we get a Spanish storm, Jorge, over the weekend, as if we didn’t have enough of our own and need to start importing them!
Morning everyone
7.0 this morning - made toast for grandsons, and the smell was just too tempting then one piece led to 2 pieces - and so on,. Anyway back in home domain now so onwards and downwards is the plan.
AND - I just heard that Spring begins on Sunday! - 29th of Feb is that last day of the meteorological winter. Lets hope that the weather starts to take this into account.
Good Morning peoples on this wet & dull start to the day.
I listened to one of my favourite meditation hypnosis recordings last night to lull me to sleep. It worked ~ I fell asleep within 15mins as per usual🙂
Have a good day folks and enjoy your weekend whatever you may be doing.
Take care and stay as warm & as well as you can.

I love doing a big shop!
Where I live there are only Tesco Metro / Little Waitrose / Sainsbury’s Local nearby (the downside of living right in the middle of central London) so when I go to a full-size supermarket I’m awestruck by the variety of goods on offer. I walk around like it’s an alien world (because it is) and then I wonder why anyone actually needs quite so many choices to pick from.
And I usually end up buying the same stuff I’d buy locally but just in larger packs 🙂
Our garden thinks it's Spring already. Buds on so many of our shrubs and trees. Splash of yellow in the corner where the forsythia's come to life and our irises are through, too.
Crocuses are out and there are budding narcissus just showing a hint of yellow too. It’s not been cold enough to knock the bananas out for winter yet either so they’re still all in full leaf and putting up new leaf curls already so I hope it doesn’t suddenly dump snow on them and set them back.
Then again I’m moving next week and can’t take any of them with me.... 15 years of gardening work... range of palm trees, bananas, Himalayan birch, conifers, maples, even a sequoia all in huge terracotta pots and I’ve got to leave them all behind.
C’est la vie.
