    HEATHER awesome about your radio show. Sorry it was postponed but that gives more time to notify potential future listeners if you have the time.

    MARGARET nice about the gifts from DH. unwanted gifts: give or toss. Your 1st friend was probably well intentioned but not thinking well. The second maybe you could say point blank, I would love to get together but with husband in stage 4 cancer I have more work than I can manage and am overwhelmed so I'm sad to say I have to put if off until you get out from under time-wise, difficult to gage. Or you could ask her if bringing take away for lunch break at home would be a possible alternative if she would like to meet up sooner...if you want to. IF that would be a nice break for you.


    VICKI I'm so sorry about your slipped disc, missed vacation and finding about a friend who had passed. That seems really sad not having even a simple service.

    TINA I am so sorry bout your uncle and the related family complications.

    ANNIE you can also google start up instructions and will very likely find short tutorials on YouTube and other info online if instructions are not furnished.

    BETH I'm so sorry.

    I've had an interested reply from a national newspaper, no promises, so I've got to post them my books this morning, write a short covering letter etc. I'm popping out for my flu jab just after an early lunch, so I will nip down to the post office then. My DDIL was kind enough to give me the contact, though I didn't mention her.
    Back home for a cup of tea and then off to pick up Bea from school. DH has his jab just a bit after mine. :D<3
    Haven't decided what to do about dinner. :*

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    PS - The tax people think they owe ME money! I've got to write them a note telling them not to give me any, or I'll have to pay it back. I think I must have put my savings interest in the wrong box.

    :)Margaret, It took me years of repetition to make the point that I wanted no gifts. i remember when my mother was my age she told me "If I can't eat or drink it or slather it on my body, I don't want it." The last time someone gave me something that was of absolutely no use, I said "Thank you" then later put it in the box of items to donate to the thrift shop.

    :) I found out that many of the blankets collected by Project Linus in my community have gone to a food bank where when families come to get food, children are able to choose a hand made blanket for themselves.

    :) We finally got appointments for our Moderna booster. We had both had frustrating experiences with trying to make appointments online and by phone so we went to Walgreens yesterday afternoon and found out that we could go to the photo counter and the clerk there would make the appointment. We go for the vaccine on Saturday afternoon.

    KJ - thanks for persevering <3:) It means a lot to me

    Margaret- I'm still trying to pluck up courage to say no Christmas presents, just charity donations. The whole thing seems ridiculous to me I give my brother wine and he gives me food or drink. Of course the grandchildren will get presents. ;) DH and I do our Santa presents in bed. :p

    I still have to ask DDIL what her Christmas plans are. I hope to do it today as we are in their house. DH is playing a board game with them.

    I'm going to order a pizza just as we set off home and we can pick it up as we pass the shop. I am not feeling like cooking. Still recovering from yesterday.
    Pleased we have both got our flu jabs.
    Love to all. Allie, hope all goes well tomorrow. <3

    Love Heather UK xxxxxx
