Good morning everyone, hope you're all good and well. It's a beautiful morning here, it was freezing earlier on but now the sun is shining though it's still cool. I love these crisp, dry, sunny days. First of March today, pinch, punch, first of the month, lol. I don't know where the time goes, it's flying by even though we're in lockdown. I got an email from the education committee this morning saying Owen has got his first choice of high school for September, so that's good, he'll be going to the same one as my other two g.children, makes my life easier.
I forgot to tell you all last week, I've put a deposit down on a kitten, he's just one week old today, a little tabby one and the g.kiddo's have named him Loki, after the Norse God of mischief. I wonder if he will live up to it, lol. My g.daughter wanted to call him Lucifer but I don't want to tempt fate, lol.
Anyway, have the best Monday you can, whatever you're doing.
lots of love
Be safe. xxx

Good morning Erratic and it's ok to be quiet, but don't go into a decline. I know Erratic, a kitten, I can't wait till the time comes when I can bring him home, I'm going to start buying stuff for him each week so I'll be all ready.
I'm really sorry that things aren't so good for your daughter and I hope that she will be okay.
Lots of love to all my April family and I'm wishing you all a better day than yesterday. xx
Stay safe. xx

Hello everyone,
Catching up on all the news.
Daisy, how lovely a new little addition to your family. I bet you can't wait. Errrr yes I wouldn't want a cat named Lucifer either, I would be scared to sleep at night haha. Loki is a much better option. I'm sorry to hear about Rusty Zipper. I saw you had posted about sad news and I looked around. I did not know him (as in have contact with him) but I am sorry to hear one of us has passed and clearly someone you had corresponded with. I'm also so sorry to hear about your friends detiriation (I'm not sure if I spelt that right?). It's so sad and cruel what can happen to the human body 😢
Hey Erratic, I hope you are feeling better? You can reach out to me anytime. Are you coming on the meeting tomorrow, I am doing the chair eek!
Hi Dee, hope all is well in your neck of the woods?
Vipe, come and check in!
I'm good. Have had a week abstinate in OA and am doing step 5 now with my sponsor. She is lovely and helping me to get through my trauma. I am already feeling so much better and am starting to feel I am really recovering now.
My mum is ok. I'm still just keeping it in the day. I'm Hoping we can go and stay with them soon. Seren is great. She is at her dad's now but holidays next weeo and then school as normal so we will be back into a routine and now there is an end in sight and hopefully life will return to what we know and love 🙏
Not much other news. The guineas are great,I put them outside today for some fresh air and grass. I dont need a lawnmower with them around ! They are so big now but are just so cute and getting more tame by the day.
I am starting to have a look out for some part time work. I need to get out and do something now am getting a bit restless and could also do with some extra money I'll let you know if I find anything.
Off to sleep now. I got asked if I would do the chair at our zoom meeting tomorrow as the person who was doing it dropped out so wish me luck !!
see you tomorrow xx

eww snitch yeah i will be there x u will be fine doing the chair, ur good at doing the secretary thing also x
daisy have u thought of a name of the kitten yet?
im not bad but worried about daughter still, she had to make a decision about something and its going to take a long while for her to get over it, which im there to support her. its hard to explain and really not my place to say whats happening if u understand as its not what everyone would agree with and i think she is doing the best thing. sry not meaning to be criptic. will leave it there.
can somone explain how to put pictures up? i thought i would maybe share my cards of the day with u all to keep me going. i have stopped my subscription to that other place as i have all the tools and paperwork to do this alone. i will have to find a place to upload from what it looks like and then put URL or link in hmmm, doh now im rambling x
hope u all have good day xx

Had my jab. Was in and out on 10 mins. I had the AstraZeneca one. No side effects so far. Been helping a new lady today. She has such a heartbreaking story. I don't know if it is always the case but in my case and in her case and in lots of others I have heard there always seems to be some trauma buried beneath the alcohol.
Nothing else to report. Feeling a little bit sad and weepy tonight but it's ok. It's just me being human and feeling my feelings. It will pass.
Night all xx

Good evening Aprils, it's good to see lots of posts and I hope everything is okay with you all. It was the last day of home schooling today and I'm so glad, I'm soooo done with it now. I hope it doesn't happen again. As I'm typing I'm sort of listening to Joe Walsh ( the Eagles) talking about his recovery from alcoholism. 27 years he's been sober. Wowsers.
It's been a sad week for me, my best friend ( my daughter's mil, the other grandmother to my g.children) went to the neurology Clinic on Wednesday and they confirmed that she does have Motor Neurone disease/ALS, she's now lost the use of both legs and her right arm. She is totally devastated and so am I, she really doesn't deserve it and then to top it all, she got rushed into hospital this morning with chest and stomach pains, turns out she has gall stones and they are operating tomorrow.
I got some photo's and a little video clip of my kitten today, that cheered me up, I'll try and post the pics on here tomorrow. He's a little cutie.
Suze, I'm glad your mum is okay and you are sensible to keep it in the day, I shall try and do that too. I hope you find yourself a little job that you enjoy, do you have any ideas of what you'd like to do?
Glad you got your first Covid jab. I had the same a couple of weeks back, I was a bit headachey and had a sore arm but nothing unbearable.
Yes, Owen's friends will be going to the same high school, which is good, as they've been together since pre school.
Erratic, I'm sorry about your daughter and whatever it is she is going through. I hope she finds peace and I'm glad she has you to support her, it sounds like she needs you.
I use Post Image when I post pics on here. I save whatever pic I want on desktop, then go on Post Image, select choose image, then copy and paste it on here. It's easy, well it must be if I can use it, lol.
Right, I'm off to peruse now.
lots of love to you all.
Keep safe xxx
