I don't know where we're going, but I know where I am (part 10)

Widdershins

In bed. Peaceful.
Goodnight, strangers

As a night cap, I'd like to say that I'm seeing an awful lot of self interest and greed out there in the micro business world. I hope those partaking in it lose everything. I hope those not partaking in it prosper in the future. If you work in a job, may you get it back and recover. I always knew the world was full of greed, but this particular event has really highlighted it for me.

Living Room. Feeling sickened to the pit.

Tomorrow is meant to be another good day though

It's been a cooler few days, the last couple of mornings were well sharp. Its mostly dry here though so I'll take that

Oh same here Grem !
I think this whole situation we're all in would be a hell of a lot harder to bear if we hadn't the bright sunny days tbh.

Gremlinertia

Think it's nearly time for me and all my bockety bones to head to the cot. Loads of joint pain, guessing the colder weather to blame.

In bed, doing online shopping. Save me from myself.

Deskside. Got on early for a meeting at 8:30.. but it got moved at the last minute. Ah well!

Not much else to do but drink coffee I think

Wayne Jarvis

Good morning all! It is a nippy but nice morning out there, I had to wear a hat & gloves for my walk this morning. I am now couchside scoffing my face.

bolgbui41

Beautiful morning out there, but I was glad I wore my thermals when I went out for my walk - most of the fields are covered in frost. Now deskside, doing last minute preparation for my first online seminar this afternoon.

Couchside, finishing my morning coffee and trying to motivate myself to either do housework or go for a walk.

Mam of 4

Gorgeous morning !
We're back to the glitch bringing the old pages up again , interesting reading

We're back in the tardis time travelling, nice to see a time before Covid-19.

Tableside with coffee (instant), a sad day here today as I'm going to start washing windows. I'd rather put my head through them, but needs must.

The second worst job to do around the house.

I must buy shares in a tea company. There seems to be some amount of it being put away at the moment if people here are anything to go by.
A guy I know sent me a text at 3;30 in the morning to say he was thinking of me.
Can't get a man when I could go out on a date and now 2 gob****es text me the same week.

Clearly Sephers has spelled LYONS incorrectly twice in his post... so I corrected it for him.

Options Kathleen, options!

I know this is probably a stupid question but is tea not just tea?

He writes time travel and zombie survival stories set in England. Its very silly absurd humour. Smart arsed characters and funny dialogue. I'd definitely recommend for light relief and a giggle.

They're amusing and there's a mystery to the story too.
If you're after horror gore, it's not like that. Which suits me as I hate gratuitous violence.

I’m surprised that you didn’t get an immediate ban for that statement :)

But I will support you, i hate the bloody stuff, only drink green tea coz the missus forces me to, but i consider that the same as drinking medicine.

Its quiet in here today. Ye must be all busy planning my birthday present.
It is just slightly over 6 months away after all...

Landscaping done for a neighbour, started before 8am with the ambition of completing by lunchtime. She inspected the work and happily dismissed me. Showered now and ready to unwind with a beach read in the back garden.

Mine's today, stand in line!

Looks like I'm getting a birthday sting if this stalkerish wasp keeps pursuing me around my garden.

Mam of 4

Happy Birthday Widdershins !
Hope you have a great day

Happy birthday Widders.

I was going to wish Widdershins a HB and say at least she has her other half there to celebrate it with her , but I was afraid of some minds going into the gutter :pac:

Widdershins

Thanks everyone
Lovely people xxx

It's hot, sunny, I'm alive and healthier and mostly sane, and have good company. I'd really like some wine though, if anyone wants to send some through the wifi...

Widdershins

Ive got Marvin Gaye singing "pour it through the wifi" circulating in my ears now.

The Crazy Cat Lady

I'm sat procrastinating about making my pancakes

Hope you are being pampered.

Happy Birthday Widders!
I am currently stamping on grapes, wine will be with you in the next few hours.

Homeside after my second walk of the day. I got very lucky and managed to get a whole lovely field to myself for an hour, 'twas blissful.
