Morning all :-)

Temperature 22 C very windy. :-( Yesterday one of the chairs on the front patio ended up in the drive, the wind is nearly as strong today.

Glad you're enjoying your trips out Dizzi.

OH's back a little better but he's still not so mobile.

If I did all the shopping I don't think OH would be happy Kandj. I refuse to get his cigarettes as I hate them. He didn't need any this week as he buys a carton at a time which lasts some time. I have no problem going shopping but I like to go early before he gets up, he likes to go about 2 pm, both are quiet times. He gets up about 1 hour after I do as he does his exercises for his back on the bed. It takes just over 35 minutes 4 times a week and 45 minutes the other 3 days. I can drive to the supermarket, do the shopping and drive back in that hour. :-)

I'm well thanks Solrosen but after a couple of warmer days it's cooled down again and got very windy. We aren't due a Coptic Gale until July so I don't understand why we still have this cool, strong wind. :-S

Enjoy yourself Solrosen and tell us all about it when back at home.

Have a good day all :-) <3

Morning All :-D

I know... I know... I've been missing for a few days now - and I probably won't be regular for quite a few more.
'Coz, I'm not 'over there' at the moment .... I am now 'over here' :-D :-D :-D

Congratulations Dizzi !! I am very happy for you and your mobility scooter and you'll get the hang of it in no time, I'm sure. I'm going to think of you as whizzy-Dizzi from now on :-D :-D :-D

Hope you are keeping well Pat, and that it's getting warmer for you ;-)

Hi to Kandj.... Will have to go now, this Connection isn't too good :-) <3
It's taking me ages to write this :-(

Hello All

Well done Dizzi. The scooter will give you much more independence and sure to make you feel a lot better. Hope it blows your headache away, remember though,
NO SPEEDING!!

Pat, perhaps you should leave your OH at home more often and do the shopping by yourself if you can manage that. Hope that his back pain improves before too long.

Hope everyone has a good day today.

Go Dizzi go. :-)

Here we go again only 23 C and a cold wind that's gusting so much I couldn't have my breakfast outside. :-(

Oh well it may blow all the greenfly away from the hibiscus hedge.

Have a good day all - no falling of your scooter Dizzi. :-) <3

Morning all :-)

Dizzi if that's headache is from yesterday's fall get it checked out.

Was in the supermarket at 8 am this morning. Got up, straight in the shower and then out. It was 28 C already so another warm day. There were many others with the same idea of get shopping done before it gets hotter. Back home by 9 am.

Now this will of course surprise you ladies. Usually do the shopping with OH but with his back the way it is decided last night to go shopping on my own. I know - it's brave of me ;-). Straight round the shop, no messing about looking at things we won't buy and for some reason the total was much cheaper than usual and I had bought 4 litres of his wine, total cost just under 42 Euros that's about £31. Maybe I should go on my own more often :-D

Have a great day all :-) <3

Oh no Dizzi, poor you, you could have done without that!!! Best take it easy today.

Pat, your temperature is far too hot for comfort.. I would be fit for nothing if I lived there. Hope your OH back pain improves before too long. That's not good at all.

I put a full line of bedding/towels out earlier and now its clouded over and black rain clouds hovering. Need to keep my eye on weather as I don't want washing to be wetter than when I put it out!

Hope everyone has a pleasant day today (NO MORE FALLING ALLOWED DIZZI).

Morning everybody :-)

Oh Dizzi what are you like, you are not to head butt the furniture it's harder than your head. What has the furniture done to you anyway. :-S ;-) Just be careful with a bang on the head see your other thread.

32 C at the moment, temperature due to drop again later this week.

You're correct Solrosen you do just get used to the heat. The temperature normally starts to creep up gently so is easy to cope with but it has been very unsettled this year. It's the cold that gets me. I'm on a low carb diet and boy do you miss carbs when it's cold. This winter has been very hard for me as it was much colder than usual.

OH still having trouble but his back is a little better than it was.

Hope you've got rid of your headache Dizzi.

Have a good day all :-) <3

Hello Dizzi and all

You have my sympathy Dizzi, having had no sleep. I know it throws your system haywire so try to have 40 winks and I hope you will feel less grumpy afterwards.

A very wet and cold day here in Yorkshire today. Dark rain clouds hovering and looks set to be in for the day...... hey ho, ..... one less job as I won't need to water the plants

Hope the day improves for us all. xx.

'Morning Everyone :-)

I forgot to say we had a long weekend due - but here we are, back again for a few days.

Sorry to hear you haven't slept, Dizzi. As Pat says, try to grab 40 winks here and there, if you can... and hope for a proper sleep tonight.

Pat, can't blame you - I would do exactly that if it were warmer today! You go and put your tooties up until June :-) How do you manage your housework in the heat? Do you take it in the morning and evenings... or, I suppose you are used to the temperatures now and it probably isn't an issue for you. It's different when you're on a holiday, isn't it?
I know I'm used to cold winters now - though last year wasn't too bad, anyway.
Hope your OH is feeling a bit better.

Weather here at the moment is a little breezy, some quite big fluffy clouds that are letting some of the sun through and the temp is 10 C

Dizzi... I think I'll go and hide for now... just in case I get on your wrong side. Only kidding !!! :-D :-D :-D

Laters, people :-) <3

Morning all :-)

Sorry you haven't slept. I used to have a similar problem with sleeping so know how you feel. It's a horrible feeling, cat nap if you can. Hope for a better night tonight.

Temperature shot up yesterday, had a high of 29 C and started washing and putting away jumpers and cardigans. Today it's the fleeces. :-D

It's already 30 C cooling breeze still but it's changed direction so it'll soon be summer. :-)

Sat outside a lot yesterday. Sat out on the front patio which only has a little shade but I think from today it'll be out back as the patio out there is covered so is in total shade.

Friends who have an apartment in Limassol fly out mid week. Early June is the next time we have visitors here.

Have a good day all and Dizzi try to get a little sleep. :-) <3

Good evening Dizzi and all

Hardly seems any time at all since Maisie was born. She sounds a little handful but lovely with it. The cats have the right idea and get out of her way fast ha ha.
I hope that your day improved Dizzi and that you have had a good time today.

Morning all :-)

Have a great time with Maisie Dizzi.

It's 24 C so a bit warmer, cool breeze but it's not so strong today. Very nice in a sheltered area. Trouble is the sheltered areas are not where we can sit :-(

Have a great day all. :-) <3
