Daily thread ~ Thursday


Morning all..

Back to a wet morning again although it has stopped raining for the moment.......it's so grey and dismal though.

Nothing much planned for today, just the usual jobs about the house.

Enjoy your day everyone..

Re: Daily thread ~ Thursday


No rain, but very misty and dull here. I have a nagging headache and feel a bit groggy today. I think a visit to my herbalist is in order during September to just 'realign' things

I have a lot of amendments to do to the FedEx book, and as I'm off tomorrow and the first 3 days of next week I need to gte through a lot to keep the client happy.

Did anyone watch the Jerry Springer 'Who do you think you are' last night? He traced his roots back to the Nazi death camps. I've read and watched a lot of stuff about this (as it's part of my history too), but for some reason it really, really upset me last night. Even OH was quite surprised at how upset I got!!

At home again today-well I went in but was sent straight home as apparently looked awful Difficult to relax though as I know there's lots to be done-paperwork etc which will just be piling up.
Overcast here but it's dry so far.

Re: Daily thread ~ Thursday


Afternoon everyone! Another grey and dismally cloudy day here too - just a patch of blue sky would be lovely.

Coo - I've just found a button on my new keyboard that makes everything larger! As my eyesight is not as good as it was (just one of many things - tempus fugit!) this is a happy accident!

Anyway - back to the post! The decorator has finished our bedroom and OH helped him put up the new curtain pole. So now we have a beautifully decorated bedroom and a curtain pole - nothing else yet until we get the call to say the carpet is ready to be laid and the curtains are in the shop ready to be picked up. Then the next phase will start ........ I will wait posting pictures until at least the carpet is down!

We are now in a position to puzzle about mantle shelf with or without corbels or fire surround for the fireplace in the lounge. I know it's really just the look of the thing, but I need to get it right, or at least to my liking and that's not terribly easy. Any suggestions would be welcomed!

So sorry to hear that you are still not feeling really well Liz. Try and take it easy - don't worry about work - you need to get yourself right.

A really nasty day here....and very welcome, it is finally raining!! We've had only .58" of rain in August and things are terribly dry; trouble finding Leia's grass as its mostly brown! Raw East wind and only 19C; wearing sweatpants and a sweater. What a relief to finally see some rain. Did todays marketing yesterday so just slept in and caught up on some chores I've avoided, and paid bills. Leia is dozing on her thermal cushion...think she must have cold feet...

Angie: woo hoo for the carpet!
PL: take care of yourself, girl!

Have a nice day!

Yes Yola I watched it and it was upsetting wasn't it I had no idea of the gas buses.....that is horrible and when the lady said "15 minutes to be unconcious - 20 minutes or so to die"....thast terrible you could imagine the screaming/panic etc etc when she said it as you looked at the old buses...and the fact what about the drivers how could you do that drive around in a bus with 80+people in the back.....being gassed............... heartbreaking.

............ Me to Yola. I was very moved by the programme. It hurt me so much to hear him sobbing quietly at the wall where the railway station was. It's not a part of my family history but I still cannot fathom how such a terrible course of events could have happened in the 20th century in the 'civilised' West.

Busy days here again folks; babies galore Seems to be a bias towards girls at the mo.
