Evening all, Another hectic day. This morning art class. We were doing charcoal drawings of each other. I haven't laughed so much in ages. One poor women ended up looking like something from Planet of the Apes and another resembled Herman Munster. This afternoon was spent looking after the boys. I'm chilling now with a cuppa. Hope everyone is enjoying their evening.
Most of today's jobs were ticked off the list - all except the boring admin ones.
Trip to SM, Boots and the pharmacy took much longer than planned. Quite a few empty shelves & items out of stock so time wasted sorting out alternatives. Then a 45 minute wait at the pharmacy to pick up my repeat prescription. Went at lunch time when it's quieter and only 3 people in front but boy did those 3 have a lot of problems / issues. The pharmacy staff were clearly at breaking point and the 3 customers concerned were collecting big (lots of items) prescriptions. Seemed to be a lot of missing & substituted items which was causing a lot of upset on both sides of the counter. One chap completely lost it but not in a nasty way. Felt very sorry for all concerned and thought of @debs64 while I was waiting.
LB - we're catching the overnight ferry from Harwich late Tuesday night so a few days to go yet. List making is well underway🙂

Evening everyone, It's been quite cold here today. I'm very happy with my haircut @Ladybird4 It seemed to have grown quite a bit this timem feels much better. @Ante1 glad you're feeling better and that you had a restful evening. @Chivetalking glad to hear your mum feels more reassured after talking to the surgeon. Can understand her thoughts about having another operation. Hopefully once the scans are back they will be able fix things without one. Thinking of you both, take care of yourself too. @Songbird-1 hope you get better weather soon so you can sit out on your new bench. @Yviestevie you made me chuckle describing your sketches. I can draw stick men and not much more 😂 Will say goodnight to you all too, sleep well and sweet dreams everyone
Lily I’m glad you like your hair. I’m up as Alfie had some throat problems so staying up a while. I think I’ll have an early breakfast. Yvie your art class sounds amusing.
Good Morning Bluebells and all to follow, Sorry to hear Alfie had some issues with his throat during the night, hope he is feeling better now. I was pleased to read that he’s been doing so well with his eating, it’s nice to see them enjoy what they have. Hope you can have a restful day after such an early start.
Just having a nice hot cuppa to start my day, hope it’s a good one for you all.
Morning @bluebellsintherain@Chivetalking and all to follow. Sorry Alfie felt poorly again, hope he's settled now and you managed to get some sleep. Chive I'll join you in a cup of tea, slept like a log last night and need one to wake me up a bit 😂 Sun is trying to peek through the clouds, hope its warmer than yesterday.
Hello RosieBB, Chive and everyone. The good news is I am going to a GC with my Bestie today. The bad news is I am going to a GC with my Bestie today. Only joking! I do need some more compost.
Yvie, your art class description had me in fits of laughter this morning. Who are we to mock though, just look what Picasso did! SGL, Lowrie did well out of match stick men. Pleased that you like your hair cut.
T'Bird, I remember doing that trip over to the Hook of Holland when we were driving to Austria for a summer holiday - many moons ago. Your pharmacy trip sounds a total nightmare and, as you say, Debs has to put up with that frequently.
RosieBB, sorry to hear poor Alfie had a bad throat again. Hope he has settled now.
Chive, I've got a nice cup of tea right by me.
