I think I will set a reading goal on goodreads Lindsay. I read 9 books last year though one was a reread. Thanks for the inspiration Lindsay:-)

Cacoethes 02-01-2025 08:50 PM

We have just taken the tree down.
Now we both have the post Christmas sads

tamobhuuta 02-01-2025 09:02 PM

I'm glad they got blood Cacoethes.

I didn't get to do my laundry, that will be a tomorrow job.

Well done reading osc.

Cacoethes 02-01-2025 09:28 PM

That's a shame tamo
At least you can do it tomorrow

tamobhuuta 03-01-2025 11:08 AM

Morning all.

Cacoethes 03-01-2025 11:48 AM

Morning!
How are you?

I got a call from the GP at 9:45 saying to go in straight away for another blood test. Bloody sodium!
So I've done that.

one_step_closer 03-01-2025 01:23 PM

Afternoon everyone.

Good luck with your reading goal, Dawn.

How are you, Tamo?

Oh that's a bit annoying, Beckie. Did they manage to take blood?

Cacoethes 03-01-2025 01:36 PM

Hey lindsay
How are you?

It is annoying!
Yeah they did, thankfully!
She used a needle and syringe, instead of directly into the bottle. So they're going to do that from now on. Doesn't always work, but it has the last couple of days.

one_step_closer 03-01-2025 02:41 PM

That's good. I hope it works again in the future. Are you working today?

I'm still quite physically unwell with my throat and allergy stuff but getting on with things.

tamobhuuta 03-01-2025 03:04 PM

I hope your sodium is not too bad/easily fixable Cacoethes.

Hi osc, sorry you're feeling unwell, look after yourself.

I've been to Mass, the walk was freezing!

Cacoethes 03-01-2025 06:00 PM

Thanks guys
I am indeed working. Until 9pm

Hopefully it improves lindsay!

It is freezing today!

not_so_insig 03-01-2025 06:13 PM

It sure is cold Beckie. We are due snow tomorrow.

one_step_closer 03-01-2025 07:00 PM

Thanks.

It's freezing here too. My house is particularly cold because it is a wooden house. We did all maybe a couple of years ago get external insulation but to me it doesn't seem to have helped.

Did you enjoy Mass and your walk despite the cold, Tamo?

Hope work is going well, Beckie.

There was snow here on the 1st, Dawn. Are you meant to get it bad?

not_so_insig 03-01-2025 07:39 PM

Yes it's supposed to be bad Lindsay. It's a yellow warning. My village is bad when it snows. Fortunately I have plenty of food and drink.

one_step_closer 03-01-2025 07:49 PM

I hope it doesn't last for too long.

Cacoethes 03-01-2025 10:46 PM

My car was iced over when I left work.
Thank goodness for de-icer spray, otherwise I'd probably still be sitting in the car park XD

tamobhuuta 04-01-2025 10:51 AM

Morning all.

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 10:54 AM

Morning tamo
How are you?

tamobhuuta 04-01-2025 10:57 AM

I am ok thanks. It's not so cold here today. How are you?

Edit
I take that back, I looked out the window and there's a heavy frost again.

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 11:42 AM

Very cold here too!

I'm ok thanks. Bit tired

not_so_insig 04-01-2025 11:56 AM

It's flipping freezing here too. Went outside and now I am frozen.

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 01:09 PM

We're meant to get snow tonight, apparently.
And wednesday we have a snow and ice warning :(

one_step_closer 04-01-2025 01:25 PM

Afternoon everyone. It's very icy here, I had to walk really slowly when I went out.

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 01:35 PM

Hey lindsay
How're you feeling today?

I haven't been out yet. But it doesn't look icy, on the ground at least!

one_step_closer 04-01-2025 01:37 PM

Still not great, Beckie. Are you doing much today?

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 03:46 PM

Sorry to hear that. Can only hope it improves! *crosses fingers*

Not really. Just been to collect meds and pick up the shopping

tamobhuuta 04-01-2025 04:49 PM

It's not icy here but very cold still. I wore two pairs of gloves to Mass and didn't take them off inside.

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 05:00 PM

You must have been freezing tamo!

tamobhuuta 04-01-2025 05:04 PM

The frost had melted but it was still very chilly. I got Dad to make a pot of tea when I got home!

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 05:33 PM

It's meant to be warmer tomorrow. My app is showing 13°
But cold again after that

tamobhuuta 04-01-2025 07:24 PM

Same forecast for us. I don't mind the cold, it's fun to complain about!

Cacoethes 04-01-2025 08:35 PM

The true British way! XD
I don't mind it too much really. I just don't want to be driving in snow and ice!

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 10:02 AM

Morning everyone
We have a bit of snow and I have to go out soon

tamobhuuta 05-01-2025 10:31 AM

Good luck in the snow. We've got rain.

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 12:17 PM

Thanks!
It wasn't too bad. Bit skiddy until I got onto the main roads.
But luckily, most of the village is on a bus route, so it was well salted!
Now it's just very wet and rainy!

How are you today tamo?

one_step_closer 05-01-2025 12:33 PM

Hi everyone. Just popping in quickly to let you know i’m on a psych ward. Will try to chat when i can.

not_so_insig 05-01-2025 01:32 PM

Sorry you're ip Lindsay but I hope your stay isn't too prolonged.

We have snow. The bus doesn't come through my village when it snows. Thankfully I am not in need of a bus today.

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 01:34 PM

Sorry to hear that lindsay
Thinking of you <3

tamobhuuta 05-01-2025 02:07 PM

I hope it's ok osc.

I'm glad the roads were ok Cacoethes.

It's good you don't need to go anywhere insig!

I'm on my way to my prayer group, L is very kindly taking me. Just one slow bit due to flooding so far.

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 05:08 PM

Hope you enjoy it tamo

tamobhuuta 05-01-2025 06:28 PM

I had a good time thanks. How goes your evening?

not_so_insig 05-01-2025 06:43 PM

Evening all.

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 06:58 PM

Glad to hear it tamo

Not too bad. Though S is going out of his way to be annoying, which isn't great!

tamobhuuta 05-01-2025 07:53 PM

Hi insig how are you?

Oh dear Cacoethes, are you on your own with him?

Cacoethes 05-01-2025 10:38 PM

I am on Tuesday. Tomorrow, L's mum is coming over to assist because I'm anxious. He can be very challenging

Cacoethes 06-01-2025 10:09 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 06-01-2025 11:00 AM

Morning Cacoethes, how are you?

not_so_insig 06-01-2025 11:10 AM

Morning all.

tamobhuuta 06-01-2025 12:09 PM

Hi insig how are you?

not_so_insig 06-01-2025 12:44 PM

I am ok thanks tamobhuuta. I think it's snowed overnight. Annoyingly I have an appointment at the gp today so I have to go out in it.
