Helloooo where is everyone. Stephen must still be having problems with his puter, I miss his morning jokes.

I hope you are all well, and that Jeni and Marilyn are both on the mend.

<3 <3 <3 to all.

Hello friends, hope everyone is ok and not suffering too much with this weather. looks like a white Easter for most of us.
I do hope that Marilyn is making a good recovery, sounds like her holiday didn't do her any good.
Sorry I have not been on recently, cant get myself motivated, must be my age.
I feel very sorry for all the people without power at the moment, how on earth will they be coping with trying to keep warm and prepare meals.
Take care and stay safe and warm everyone.

I was up nice and early Shelly, in fact the flippin birds woke me up, trying to break the ice on the bird bath. ;-) ;-) ;-)
Cor it's blessed cold out today. We popped up to town for me to get some more books,just in case we get snowed in...I can't be without a good read.

It's very quiet on here lately, has everyone hybernated.

No Stephen, Marilyn or Jeniwren. I hope they are all o.k.

Will look in later to see if theres any news about them.

Thanks for the update on Marilyn, Pauline.
If I remember last time Marilyn went away, she was unwell then. But whatever it is thats wrong with her this time, has really knocked the stuffing out of her.
Get well soon Marilyn <3 <3 <3

By the way Pauline, how are you doing now love?, Have they managed to sort out your back problems?

Jenowren has been in contact today, and she is bearing up. Her doctor popped in to see her, to give her some new medication for her diabetes.
Keep on getting better Jeni <3 <3 <3

Not long now Yvonne, till we will meet up again. It's only two weeks away now, but when it was first suggested it seemed ages away. lol
Like you, we had a few snow flakes this morning, but nothing settling thank goodness.

Still no news from Stephen. I wonder if he is away with Mrs Stephen,I can recall him saying about the surprise trip he has arranged for her, but I am not sure when it was arranged for them to go.

Take care everyone.

Hello everyone

Get well soon Marilyn <3

pleased you are feeling better Jean.

We had snow during the night and it's snowing now but not settling much

The vet came to look at the horse again this week, she is still lame but the vet says she can go out in the field for a couple of hours a day but I think I'll wait till the snow has gone.

Hi all.

I've spoken to Marilyn's husband and he told me Marilyn is still in hospital. I'm afraid she isn't responding to the antibiotics as well as she should have been.

The doctors think it may be something tropical so they have to harvest it to find out what it is and then get the right antibiotic to treat it. Pete said it may take a week or more to find the right antibiotic. Marilyn is feeling weak and shaky at the moment but she's in the best place and is being looked after.

I hope Marilyn has a speedy recovery once she starts the right treatment.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Marilyn <3 <3 <3 <3 <3


Nice to see you back, Jean, don't go overdoing it though.

Is Stephen still not well?

Hope everyone else is in good health.

Oh dear, Stephen was not on parade this morning, I do hope he is o.k.

Huia, yes I saw your fantastic photo on FB. Your hair certainly has grown since you had it shaved.
Phil doesn't seem to change facially does he love.

Linda, I hope the wedding went of well, and that you all didn't get to wet.
It's such a pity when it rains on your wedding day, it puts a bit of a downer on the celebrations, but the ceremony is still lovely and that can't be changed or rained on.

Has anyone heard how Marilyn is at the moment?
Hope fully I will hear from Jeniwren tonight, but if I dont I will get in contact with her, to check that she is still on the mend.

Bye for now folks.

Morning all
Not too much going on. Stuck close to the house while the bathroom is being done.

But a wedding this afternoon is anticipated with happiness for the young couple. Shame the weather will probably stop outside photos.

Have a good day everyone.

Hoping Marilyn is getting better and Jean is taking care of herself. Stephen is the cough easing?

Yes, Mo, a new photo taken yesterday when I visited him. I dont know if he recognised me but he seemed a bit more alert. Did you see the photos on my FB page? They show much better there than on here.

Oooh look, Jeni and Shelly are back....good to see you both.

Shelly, you don't have to run to fast to get away from Roly, he is in agony with his back, so couldn't catch you love.
Hows the family doing now? I bet the littlies are all growing up now.

Huia, is that a new photo of yourself and Phil? Did he recognise you when you saw him on your anniversary.

Jeni, get your bum sat down, and rest yourself woman, you know you are supposed to be relaxing.
But we will let you off, if you are sitting down and typing :-D :-D :-D

Got to go now, see ya's laters.

Hello friends, thank you so much for all your birthday messages and your kind thoughts.
Am very happy to be home, but cannot fault the care I was given in hospital.
I do hope that Marilyn is starting to feel much better now, not a very good end to her holiday was it?
Have been trying to catch up with this thread but haven't read all the posts yet, hope everyone is ok and hasn't suffered too much because of the weather.
Lovely sunshine here today but very cold.
Take care and stay safe and warm.

A Wee Chuckle for the day...........well worth reading.

A man walked out to the street and caught a taxi just going by. He
got into the taxi, and the cabbie said,...........

"Perfect timing. You're just like Brian"

Passenger: "Who?"

Cabbie: "Brian . He's a guy who did everything right all the time.
Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happen like that to
Brian , every single time."

Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."

Cabbie: "Not Brian . He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the
Grand Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an
opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have
heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."

Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special."

Cabbie: "There's more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered
everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and
which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I
change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Brian , he could do
everything right."

Passenger: "Wow. Some guy then."

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid
traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them

But Brian, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman
and make her feel good.

He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too.

He was the perfect man!

He never made a mistake.

No one could ever measure up to Brian ..."


Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

Cabbie:..............

"Well, I never actually met Brian.

He died.

I'm married to his Widow."

Thank you Stephen, but although we have been married for 54 years we have been together for only the first 50 of those as OH went into care 5 months after our 50th anniversary, so I dont really feel as if the last few anniversaries 'count'. I will go to see him today, though, as I usually go on a Thursday, but he wont know what day it is. He rarely looks at me, or talks, and often keeps falling asleep. I dont even know if he knows who I am.

I woke up just after 4 a.m. and couldnt get back to sleep, hence I am here on my computer at 6 a.m. about to have breakfast. I will probably get another hour or 2 sleeping after that.
