Yawn,yawn, wakey, wakey 2017

Goooooooood morning fellow WW'ers

Breaking news:

(Thank you @moyra)
I've found them!!!! They were in the safe place that I put them when I moved the office around ... I'd just forgotten what I'd deemed a "safe" place (Although clearly it was!) So, sowing day today and a bit of sewing ... suppose that makes it a bit of a so and so day then!

It is glorious weather out there this morning (sorry @CanadianLori I hope that doesn't bring on a bout of Zone Envy ) so I might have to force myself into the garden at some point and endure reading a chapter or three of the book club book. It's a crime thriller called "The Birdwatcher" by William Shaw. Not quite sure who in our group chose it, but it is set in Kent and I think that had a bit of influence in the choice I was plodding along (no pun intended) with the first chapter or two, a page here and there basically, but, last night I had to pick up #1 son from work at silly o'clock so took the book with me to while away any waiting time. It has suddenly become *very* interesting So ... I'm juggling tasks today so I can fit in a bit of everything.

@shiney - sorry to hear about your back, please do not over do it today!

@Zigs - sorry to hear about your car but, on a positive note, at least you are in work and able to get it fixed Do you need Echo to headbutt parts into place?

@woo - are you keeping a low profile so your head doesn't get stuck in any clouds?

Smiles and vibes for all xxMxx

 

Good day everyone
The wind is howling and tossing sub sub zero temperatures around out there. Yes, @"M" I have zone envy and @shiney the igloo is almost complete and I shall make a slab of ice for you to chill your aching back muscles.

I shall be doing a lot of errands today. Might as well get these mundane tasks out of the way when the weather doesn't permit the fun stuff

Have a safe day everyone

 

Gooood (very early) morning, fellow WW'ers

Had to collect #1 son from work again tonight/this morning and I noticed that one moment it was a pleasant night, then the next moment - swoosh! - I hit fog; not too, too bad, but had to adjust driving conditions accordingly.
I had planned to read another chapter of my book while waiting for #1 son to finish his shift, but, a kindly chappy on duty suggested son leave half hour earlier than scheduled (an old fashioned type of guy, if you get my drift) so we could begin our journey home. Wow, what a difference it made! By now the fog was quite, quite, thick I explained to son that there was to be no "boy racer" style driving to cross the finish line first and then the reasons behind that (stopping distances/visibility). Some of the journey was along the M20 and it gave me an opportunity to discuss the merits/demerits of "placement" when knowing there will be a joining from a slip road in terms of placement and forward thinking. Fortunately, he was very reception to the logic of that particular situation

I'm off to bed for a bit of shut eye shortly as I have a very busy day ahead when I wake up.

Stay safe, keep smiling and positive/healing vibes for all who are in need of them xxMxx

 

Good Morning everyone, Glad to hear H is in control of your back! Shiney.
Have a good day all stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God bless.

 

Good day everyone
It appears we might be having a clear day. Still cold but it is nice when I know I'm going to see the sun.

And it will also be nice for the drive. I'll leave in about an hour to flip over the border to pick up some greenhouse parts and my freebie accessory. Also picking up my replacement food guide for my meat slicer and in anticipation of getting to use it again, I cooked a roast of beef last night. Looking forward to roast beast sandwiches

Have a safe day please

 

Good afternoon fellow WW'ers

@CanadianLori - hope the sun smiles brightly on you today and you enjoy that drive. I'll pop round later when the beef sarnies are made

@shiney - hope your recoil has been lubricated and your holes are filled with rat poison

@woo - aha! I can see you are warming up ready for St Patricks Day tomorrow
You've sorted out your Irish accent but I hope you've been practising your dance steps!

@moyra - that is a really charming kitten picture today; really brought a smile to my face:


Smiles and vibes for all xxMxx

 

Good morning Mr Woo; how do you do?

I saw my first, live, badger on the drive back home tonight/this morning. My son asked: "How did you know it was a badger?" so I replied, "By its shape and size". He responded: "It could have been a fat fox!"

I have now finished my Book Blub book I've never completed one so early! Maybe because I actually *liked* this one

Confession Time:
It dawned on me that I hadn't resized Ozzy's harness for quite some time; all the while he has grown and grown. So, t'other week I thought "Time to alter the harness", so, I did. Well, I've noticed he's been giving me "Elvis Lips" when I've been getting him ready for his walks and today I took him to task and had a word in his ear about manners Off out we went, had a wonderful walk in the woods. He chased things I couldn't see; he chased the sound of the trains; he had a good sniff around ... but he wasn't keen on jumping over fallen trees and was being a bit stubborn at times. Something was not quite "right"! Arrived home, undressed him from his walking gear (harness and halti) and then it dawned on me ... something was just not right with his harness. Stoopid "M" had indeed altered it ... but I'd made it tighter instead of looser!! Poor thing must have been so very uncomfortable (no wonder he was giving me Elvis lips!) I've rectified my mistake and I'm optimistic that tomorrow he will feel a whole lot better

Smiles and vibes for all plus ...

Good Morning everyone and Top of the Morning to you All, Happy St. Patricks Day,
Have a good day all stay warm and dry and above all things safe and well, God bless.
