That's about it Rain. I call it the 'nasty' tablet because of it's potential problems. Well if it saves me from future trouble, so be it.
Bin men been. As usual, despite me putting our bin on one side of drive it ends up partway down the road. Neigbour away, so usually hers & mine together- down the road.....
Am having an early lunch so can get other things done next- getting there, but slowly. Am saving a piece of cake for a treat when I finish. J.
Hello all. Frosty here, no snow. The forecast has changed again - now only snow on Friday night. Well, I'll wait and see. I'm going to shop at lunchtime today anyway, not that I think there's the remotest possibility of getting snowed in, but the less trips out at the weekend the better.
I made OH drive this morning as far as his work because he's been driving me nuts with his 'comments' on my driving! The boys say there is nothing wrong with my driving, its just him being a nervous passenger - and of course he's such an expert driver himself!
Caz, thanks for that recipe, they look delicious!
Jo, that's one of the reasons I'm taking part in the University study - so I can find out if taking a vit. D supplement will help prevent osteoporosis.
I'm cold. Heating is on full blast in my office but its still cold! I've got my large scarf wrapped around me like a shawl.
Hi Lottie, know what you mean about OH & driving! I always tend to drive when we go anywhere, because I learnt to drive first, but he used to do 'the chemo run' to the hospital.... I used to take half a travel tablet & make sure I kept my feet very still & looked out of the side window......
My Mum had some osteoporosis, never officially diagnosed, but looking back you can see the signs. Luckliy she never fell, nor broke anything.
Hi Geoff, it's as well as it's going to be I think, ankle does get quite stiff sometimes when it's really cold, don't have the flexibility I had but then it's got plates and pins in either side, still swells up so limited as to what I can get on my feet, it doesn't pain me just aches a bit now and then, scared to death when it's icy but fine on the snow as I put those snowtrax on my boots, safe as houses in them, thanks for asking.
What a busy lot you have been since yesterdays visit.
We have decided to do supermarket shop today in case we get all the snow they are forecasting, with a bit of luck we won't get as much this far east.
We are due to go away for a few days on Monday, but it looks as if we might have to postpone, but will wait and see what happens.
Our daughter is taking vit D pills after she damaged her foot. They did some test and said she had a deficiency so she take one a day, goes back for more blood test later this month.Seems quite a common condition, although she eats a good diet and is out everyday walking the dog. Apparently a lot of children are getting rickets as they don't play outside so much these days, too many computers, tvs etc.
Bjay.- What about buffalo chicken you can do it with wings, or drumsticks, nice and spicy, goes down well at ours. Lots of recipes on the internet Is it a hot or cold meal?
Since the menopause I have take HRT, had dreadful hot flushes, dry hair, felt bad. HRT was great, had some osteoarthritis in left hip and it completely disappeared. Now the Doc wants me to stay on a low dose as I ride and he says it helps to prevent osteoporosis. Now it's 10 years later and hip starting up a bit again. Luckily I have no history of breast cancer in the family so Doc says I can stay on low dose HRT.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Well, that me togged up for braving outside. Brigette Jones belly warmer pants, leggings, jeans, thermal vest, T-shirt and long sleeved top. And my furry boots. That should do the job. Probably be sweating cobs by the time I get home!!
Hi Becks, you'll need all those clothes, its -3c here today. We had to go out yesterday and it was awful, so cold it made your face ache, so the more clothes the better perhaps a balaclava might be useful

Afternoon forkers
Had a few things to do over the last few days and didn't have much to report but popped in just to show my cyber-face.
Sorry to hear of everyone's problems and hope you all fare well.
No snow here yet, but I'm not liking what I hear about White Friday.
That'll be me grounded if as I won't drive in it again after the last lot. Had a massive skid and turned the car around just avoiding a lamp post.
The pictures are lovely though.
Food is now required.
