Wow, 37 plants! I’m proud of myself that I’ve managed to keep one majestic palm alive for a few months!37 houseplants and counting.....Today is plant watering day, a few are drooping and begging for H20.....time to weed them down.
Same with the ophthalmologists I've seen. Then again, I'm persistent about getting the doctors to answer when I have health questions.Nothing like ours... they'll answer any questions if you ask...
That’s too bad…..hope you have better luck on the garage sale times.Another sale with no shows. I can't believe this! I am packing the things up until garage sale weekend. I though I could lighten my load and sell some things beforehand.
I know exactly what you mean... Due to working in Television and Radio.. for many years, I'm the worlds worst critic as a viewer, I drive myself mad.. much less other people. I spot every continuity error, and so many factual errors, I can't watch Dramas at all because so much is wrong..lol..... and my estranged whotsit, spots every technical error because he's a high flier within the Entertainment industry and has been since leaving school... ..'' Yikes'' there's a Boom shadow in shot.. etc..... it's safer to watch quiz shows and sport..You know you've been a nurse too long when you are watching a suspense/mystery tv series in which the lead character has been attacked, left with a severe head injury and is now in the community hospital on the vent and the *one thing* you notice is Someone Left The Bed Side Rails Down!!! (A definite no-no)
how many is that you've had now ?just been for my spring covid jab, ouch
There are always the murder shows. Too scary/creepy/bloody to pay any attention to anything except the story.it's safer to watch quiz shows and sport..![]()
Oh I do try always to eat food I don't cook at home, but in all honesty I'm a bit of a hedonist food wise at home, because I kinda like to make good quality food, the sort of food I would have in a restaurant... so it's not easy to find something a little different.You will be happy once you get there, just take your time and be careful. Have a good time, eat something you normally don't eat at home. I always try to pick things I have a hard time fixing at home.
Talk to her about the problem text you got from your ex. I know she can't solve it but she can listen and let you get things off your mind. It will be an excellent visit, I know I always feel lighter after I spend time with my son.
Where did you go for your special meal? What did you have? Was your daughter able to help you through with the email from the ex? I am sorry it was a rainy day but I am sure your daughter brought some sunshine into your day. How are you feeling? I know you have been struggling with health issues, your knees, back and kidneys. Did I miss the results of your MRI? I am worried that you may do too much in the garden now that spring has arrived.You will be happy once you get there, just take your time and be careful.

You were answering my questions when I was typing more. Looks like it was a lovely day for both of you. The lamb and duck would not be my choice. I have had them but they were too game like for my taste. I am sure you have a better source, raised in the UK, when it comes to lamb. It was an often choice of Easter meals at my inlaws.Oh I do try always to eat food I don't cook at home, but in all honesty I'm a bit of a hedonist food wise at home, because I kinda like to make good quality food, the sort of food I would have in a restaurant... so it's not easy to find something a little different.
However today I had 2 small plates.. one with shredded Lamb in some kinda spicy sauce and salad.. and the other was Duck..( both of which I regularly have at home) and unfortunately they were very tiny.. and not cooked well.. so I didn't eat it.. but Daughter, had the steak because she's not had steak at home for months, and she said it was excellent..
The weather was terrible driving up there, the rain didn't stop until I was almost there.. and we were fortunate because it stayed off all the time were there, albeit very overcast and cold..
Stamford is a very hilly town centre so we did a lot of walking while we were shopping in some great small stores..like The White stuff, Joules and Fat Face.. and between us we spent a lot more than we were probably expecting to...
Before we set off home we had coffee and cake at a little traditional cafe.. really nice... but it was packed full of people, as was absolutely everywhere we went today... think because it's Easter Bank Holiday weekend next weekend..people might have been out to avoid even bigger crowds next weekend.. who knows..
Anyway It;s 10.30pm.. I only had 3 hours sleep last night so I'm pretty tired... just having a cuppa tea.. and a read of the forum...
this is where we had lunch...
It's very large, we were at the tables behind the camera... the photo doesn't do it justice it's really lovely..
5 minutes after I took this photo of the only empty table.. a group of 12 women came in...![]()
this was my duck salad...

I posted above where I went for our lunch.... ^^^^ . My daughter is very plain speaking, not a sunshiny person in that sense... and she takes no prisoners... so we did discuss my estranged husband in some detail.. he is her step father after all...Where did you go for your special meal?

Yes, those are a lot of questions but you have had a lot going on.
