Hi lr :) I've got a cardigan, oodie and blanket on, I sympathise!

I rarely get cold but today is one of those days. Wish I had an oodie.they look so snuggly!

They are so snuggly! I have 2! If my family aren't sure what to get me for a present, they get me something snuggly.

I got a suprise present the other day from my partner's mum. A cuddly duck! She is from jelly cat and super soft. Her name is Popcorn!

Morning jen!

It is rather chilly today but weirdly, I'm ok in a t shirt atm
I do have a hot water bottle though

Aww that's nice jen!

Ooh hot water bottle! I have warmed up a bit after porridge and coffee.

It was very sweet of partners mum. And I am enjoying my snuggles with Popcorn the Duck muchly.

How is your day going Beckie?

That's good!

It's pretty boring so far! Attempting to study and get hold of tutor about exam

Afternoon all. It sounds very wet and windy outside. Unfortunately I have tesco coming so am having to go outside :-( . But the good news is that there's zero substitutes and zero unavailable items. A rarity!

Also unfortunately I have a nurse's appointment at the gp this afternoon so I am hoping that the weather will be better by then.

It's just windy now but could rain at any moment!
Been out for coffee and sent off a parcel and went to aldi. All I have to do now is have a blood test later

Hi everyone.

Cold and wet here. I'm in my house and still cold. Did go to the walking group despite the weather, it was ok.

Well done for going!
Glad it was ok. Do you think you'll go again?

Yeah I should probably do my best to keep going.

What time is your blood test?

I agree with Beckie well done Lindsay!

Thanks Dawn. Have you been to your appointment yet?

Good :)

3:40. My brother is leaving work early to give me a lift. Otherwise I'd be cancelling. It's a 50 min walk, which I can do easily, but with the weather being like it is plus walking a long country lane with no path, i wouldn't feel overly comfortable doing it. There is a scenic route round near the mill and across fields by the river, but it's apparently waterlogged atm.

No my appointment isn't until 5.15 pm Lindsay. Currently I'm waiting for tesco.

The tesco man has been. Now just gotta put everything away now that I have had my lunch. I can confirm it's flipping freezing outside. I am glad that I haven't got a dog.

Well done osc!

I'm glad tesco was successful insig.

Hope your appointment went/is going OK Cacoethes.

Loving Popcorn the Duck lr.

I'm glad your brother is able to give you a lift, Beckie.

I am also glad I don't have a dog, Dawn.

How are you doing, Tamo? Are you feeling any warmer?

Nope. But after this cup of tea I'm going to do some exercise so that will warm me up.

That's a good way to warm up and to get fit, double bonus!

Appointment was fine thanks!
Got blood first time so was in and out in less than 10 mins!

Hey tamo!

Indeed :)

Just got a text, my Carmelite book is arriving tomorrow.

I'm glad your bloods were quick!

That's good, Beckie. I hate when you get a really rubbish person who can't take blood. I have some very good veins and people usually get it first time but this doctor in hospital tried twice in my good arm and once in my good but not as good arm and just made me bleed on my white t-shirt before another doctor tried later and got it first time in my usual arm.

Ooh I love a book delivery!

My veins are temperamental! It's often not down to the skill of the nurse/dr in my case. It's my weird collapsey veins XD

I have been for my appointment. It decided to hailstorm as soon as I got out of the doctors. I got wet and needed to dry my hair with the hairdryer as soon as I got in. I have a coffee now and the heating on.

I would hate to have bad veins and need to be stabbed with needles lots.

Hope you're drying off and warming up now, Dawn.

Doesn't bother me at all luckily!

What are you up to lindsay?

Yes fortunately apart from feeling cold and my hair I wasn't too bad Lindsay. I am on another cup of coffee and in bed.

That's good at least, Beckie.

I'm just about to watch some TV. What about you?

Do all the cosy things, Dawn!

What are you watching?

I'm binging driving test tip videos on tiktok XD

I managed to do all my things today! Tomorrow I don't need to do anything.

Well done tamo!

Congratulations tamobhuuta. Hope it feels good.

It does :) I'm ready for bed.

How are your evenings?

I had my tea and done my dishes. Now all I have left is my laundry.

Enjoy (?)

Morning everyone

Morning Cacoethes how are you?

Morning!
I'm ok thanks. You?

I'm ok. Off to Mass in a minute. You up to much?

Hope you enjoy it!

Not really. Car getting cleaned at 10, driving lesson at 1:30, need to go to asda and krav this evening.
Need to remember to get bananas. Apparently eating a banana and taking 2 paracetamol within an hour of your driving test really helps! No one knows why but people swear by it!

Ooo good luck! I hope the magic helps.

Mass was difficult, I had to leave my pew and stand in the porch because I felt overwhelmed by all the people. But I'm glad I went.

Thank you!

Well done for going anyway! Sounds like you handled it well

Sorry you found mass difficult tamobhuuta.

Thanks insig, how are you?

Apart from flipping freezing and fed up of waiting for my parcel I am ok. It's wet and windy here again.
