'Tis Tuesday

Good morning - bright and sunny and freezing again. Pleasant enough though but still not good enough to persuade the daffodils to break bud. It will be like last year, when the daffodils had a really really short flowering season
No news from this neck of the woods but I hope the day is good to you all

Re: 'Tis Tuesday

Good afternoon

It has been sunny here in the south but clouded over now. The dogs have been for a lovely long walk and are now settled down in front of the Aga. They wouldn't be quite so happy if they realised they are having a bath later

I am on two weeks leave to use up the remainder of my holiday entitlement. My friend is on her way here and we will be like a canine beauticians here tonight in preparation for Crufts on Friday.

We had some very sad news last night, one of our Basenji friends passed away last night after a late diagnosis of cancer. She had hoped to make it to Crufts one last time.

Live for today because tomorrow may never come.

Re: 'Tis Tuesday

Yes Moetmum, the husband of one of my friends died on Friday after a very recent diagnosis of cancer (late January).

As you say, live for today.

Weather here was very cold first thing, but sunny. Is now "mild" (6C - is that classed as mild?) but cloudy. Not sure if we are due another frost tonight, but surely cannot be as severe as Sunday night, when it was down to -9C!

Oooh, I am sick of the cold!

As for daffodils - my snowdrops aren't properly open yet, and the daffs are just a little green shoot in the ground.

Re: 'Tis Tuesday

Afternoon all, . . sorry to hear of your friend MM, . . as you say, it's best to live for the moment and forget the little problems.

Been kinda busy with the Jeep, she has a slight miss-fire which I shall try to resolve.

Re: 'Tis Tuesday

Hi all; another super day: already 12 ( 53 F) before lunch and up to 16 by afternoon, not as cloud in the sky. No errands today, slept late and pottering about. I think I may have pulled a muscle working in the garden yesterday, a stabbing pain in right forearm when I move it a certain way ...?? Took an Aleve, hope it wears off. No interesting news

Keep well, all.

Re: 'Tis Tuesday

Sorry to hear about your friend MM.....hope you enjoy your time off

Hope your arm soon settles Dandysmom.....

Been another glorious day again. Went to hairdressers this morning then off for a lovely walk during which my mobile rang and it was from work asking if I could go in for 1pm so that was how my afternoon was spent

My snowdrops have at last opened and the Crocuses are more or less opened........

Certainly won't Dandysmom, and they can't contact me next week either because I'll be in Germany!
