A happy but cold Tuesday. We started off with drizzle then, as I pottered in my kitchen I noticed my windows were building condensation as the cold air arrived and within minutes the promised Arctic blast had arrived outside. I managed a decent walk with George and Betty wearing their jackets but once home decided housework was the best option, including clearing the stove ash and relighting the fires. It’s unusual to get below zero in November but then the weather has been topsy turvy all year.
I’m now sipping hot chocolate and will probably have a relatively early night.
Lin, I do admire how much work you put into your card making. Lazy me, I buy a couple of packs of charity cards! Don’t do a Mary Poppins with that umbrella!
I hope your back appointment is satisfactory Sandy. Are you expecting another injection? Enjoy your evening meal.
Take care and keep warm.

Happy Wednesday!
Dinner and seminar was good last night. Free dinner for listening to a lady talk about pain relief with stem cells. Of course it's not covered by insurance and they gave no price but if you called today you could save $1400 so you can imagine what the cost might be. I was nasty and gave a wrong cell phone number on their sheet so they can't bug me. I will stick with my pain management doctor. I have a consultation with him on December 9th to go over my options from surgery, to radiofrequency ablation to the injections that I have been getting. We will see.
I have to get ready to meet my old neighbors for lunch at 11;30, which seems more like brunch than lunch. I did not sleep well last night so will probably end up with a nap later.
Have a good day.

Hi…..and BRRRRRR. Super windy and cold merging to make it feel like winter today. We did have some lumpy precipitation this morning. 😁
I did some laundry this morning, several cardio classes and now I am back to cards, cards, and more cards. My 30 or 40 cards always take an inordinate amount of time. I do love the green paper I received yesterday. It is called Christmas Tree green and that is what I am cutting out of it. The intricate things I am putting on the front of each card require slow and careful application of glue. I did find a bright desk lamp to use to help me see what I am doing. Wahoo!
Sandy, very clever to include a fake phone number. 👍🏻👍🏻. Sorry you didn’t sleep well last night. That’s been a problem for me a lot lately. High anxiety dreams. Ack!
Well, back to the glue. If I do not pick up the pace, it will take 4 more days to glue together the stuff on the fronts of these cards. Then the interiors are next, then the back of the cards and finally addressing dozens of envelopes. Oh, and I need to make some birthday cards for December. Wish I was faster….
Be safe everyone.

Winter is still with us but apparently only until Saturday. Early morning freezing rain stopped me from driving to the moors to meet David as our plan was for him to follow me home and bring Hattie in to acclimatise herself with my home, so hopefully no problems while she stays at the weekend. We will now do this on Friday. It warmed up enough for me to clean out the hen house but apart from that I enjoyed a quiet day. I’ve just let George and Betty out for their last garden visit and it is bitterly cold so wait to see what we wake up to!
Stay safe and warm.

I pulled back my bedroom curtains to a wintery scene. Too icy to walk so George and Betty will have to potter in the garden. They are currently in front of the stove in respective beds! I will sort the crab apples and plums ready for Christmas chutney but nothing else planned. Hopefully milder tomorrow so Hattie can visit with David and see where she will be staying over.
Happy Thursday.
Stay warm and safe.

We have the same weather Jackie. Happy Thursday! I am not going to my meeting since this is the first snow. I am going to go to Lisa's house to celebrate her surprise birthday. I am just hoping it stops soon and the roads are ok. I am going to wait to see before I commit otherwise we will postpone.
I am so far behind today so like Jackie said, stay warm and safe.
