How long does it take?

Depends which route.. Calais to England.. around 40 minutes.. but ferry from Dieppe to Newhaven around 4 hours 30 minutes..

The removal drivers don't like taking the Euro tunnel.. because customs have to check them over throughout with their dogs every trip in case of stowaway illegal immigrants, and it holds them up for hours, and that's exactly what happened with the removal guys that brought my daughters' things today...

We ended up being at the house 10 hours in total after having to wait for them over their ETA ...

Monday-up bright and early.Off for breakfast at Boswells again and then for my 9am appointment at Vision Express,including the dreaded field test!Vision Expression are an opticians if you have never heard of them.
 

Fri afternoon,got a call from my sister,Mary who lives in England wishing me Happy BIrthday.I have caller ID on my phone knew it was her when it said'unknown name',we had a nice chat
Yesterday afternoon during my weekly family zoom meeting,Mary surprised us all by being there which was great fun to be altogether.I haven't seen her in 8 yrs,a perfect way to end the holiday weekend I hope she can join us every Sun
I went on my early walk this morning around 6:30,temp was 42,light rain.
My weekly MOn call to Canopy of Neighbors members to see how they are doing what they did on Thanksgiving.If its not raining too hard try to get a walk in either before or after lunch
 
Pretty much a lazy day yesterday.
Did my usual morning cleaning chores.
Did some internet searching for any new puzzle sites......one looked interesting......but i thought i was too easy, til i loaded a puzzle........my mind changed......you select your own level.......clicked on " extra hard " it does take brain power.......Happy with that.

Took over my granddaughters birthday present yesterday.......she turned 2.
Maybe it's a good thing she's only 2........she doesn't realize the no party thing.......but.......she's happy and growing.
The two grandsons are good too and growing.

Just saw the news. Poor Wales , back into Lockdown on Friday again... :eek:..we come out in 2 days ...

Make the most of this week , while you can Furry
 
Rain. Walking my dog. Walking my sick neighbor's dog. Work (writing marketing BS from home). Wife is working all day outside the house so I'm handling groceries and dinner prep. No exercise, taking the day off. If time frees up later today will read.
 
Went grocery shopping...brought in all the outdoor plants and covered up the tender outdoor ones...a freeze forecast for tonight. That's enough. Will do our 3 or 4 mile walk later.
 
Very sore today after working all day yesterday setting up my daughters' new rental.. had to have several heat pads on to ease the pain .. don't tell grandma Aneeda tho', cuz she'll tell me off... :sneaky:...so today I've only washed up, and taken delivery of a parcel for my daughter , and nothing more aside from sitting here on my computer ...

Granny Aneeda won't hear it from me, I promise.
 
Welding out in the carriage house today. Cold rainy and starting to snow. The carriage house has a very old woodburning cook stove in it. Started it and within 30 minutes, I had to open the doors. I can only take so many clothes off, especially welding!

It's very rainy here. I did some baking this morn and exercising and now I'm just wastin a bit of time here while worrying about what the future holds. On days when I'm stuck inside instead of out and about I tend to worry too much. I think I'll sew up some holes in my winter socks and take a nap this afternoon. Yikes, I'm sounding like an old person. 😟
 
On my early walk this morning around 6:45,wore my winter boots because there was a dusting of snow on the grass,the precip was lite/rain snow showers temp was 34.In the city where I live,we'll get probably an inch of snow
My plan this morning is to vacuum the living room hopefully get out for another walk either mid morning or this afternoon
 
I'm following my daughter as she drives through Southern Spain, into Northern Spain and ultimately into France... she's keeping me updated every hour or so with voice messages, and pictures when she stops for a pee break for the dogs...

She's been driving now for 6 hours.. and is about 4 hours from her night stop...

Right now I'm just waiting for a Zoom call from my ENT consultant.. due in about 5 minutes .. it's sunny but cold, and I have all the windows open..
 
Cold morning here...but "severe clear"...bright and sunny weather. Woke up to 4 nice size white tail deer in the back yard. Got a couple of stops to make as soon as it warms up. Have a good day all.

If you would just REST, you would get better, or at least not be in so much pain.

I hate so much being in pain all the time, and I really hate it when others are in pain because I know pain is, well, painful. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Lord love a duck I am eating COTTAGE CHEESE and soft eggs to try and get my stomach to stop hurting so bad. It’s not working, but I am trying. And, AND, I swallowed a crap load of BARUM for the stupid X-ray.

But, I am so glad you are taking it easier today. 🤓. And I hope your pain lessens considerably. Here have some cottage cheese and pineapple and a bagel with light butter spread. Put your feet up, watch some TV, and REST your sore self. Please. 😍

Going to attempt to find someone to fix a roof today even though it is snowing....yeah, I know, good luck with that.

I don’t have the money for a new roof so I have to wait. Where do people get 17,000 to 22,000 for a new roof. Unreal
