I do, but I would prefer one that is not quite so colourful!

Gosh, I hope something can be done. Platelet deficiency is so exhausting. No wonder you are so tired all the time.

Oh it is! Not! With my walking ability limited now it's just a matter of finding things that I can do to keep mobile. I am still doing a lot of crafts so I do get plenty of 'rest' time. Hope you and Alan are doing ok. Xxx
We are slowly getting things together. He gets frustrated when he can't carry on as he used to. Thanks to his illness in June he has aged suddenly and doesn't want to slow down. He is very slowly improving. I must start walking more, but this cold weather is not conducive to even going outside!

Good for them. Are they dressed like police and firemen? I still have my paramedic teddy, but gave the others away.

A laid back day probably did you a world of good. No news is good news.

I finally tried something new, for me anyway. Rainbow Teddy has jointed limbs and head. It makes the head wobbly, but so much fun.
That is so cute!

Don't have a dishwasher but I have a small airfryer and use it a lot, saves putting the main oven on and it's quicker. X
The airfryers are great, our youngest DD bought one for DH for Fathers Day, 2 years ago, and it gets used more than any other cooking appliance, other than his BBQ! He absolutely loves it. xoxoxo

Sweetie sounds like a wonderful girl to play with!... (show quote)
When Mint was a very young girl, possibly about 12 months old, we had to go to Adelaide, for appointments, and when we got home much later in the day, and found a dead juvenile Brown snake in our backyard. We had 2 dogs, at that time, Andre - he was a 5- 6 yo Chihuahua, and Mint; and she was definitely the one who killed the shake, and fortunately neither dog was bitten. After that incident, we didn't actually see any more snakes in our yard; I think they might have avoided our yard after that, or only travelled through the yard, travelling along the fence lines ..... that's my theory, anyway. Mint was totally different with our lizards though, especially with any sleepy (shingle back or blue tongue) lizards that she found. She used "rescue" any of those that she found in any open areas of our yard. I think there was only one lizard that she unfortunately accidentally killed, but after that one, she perfected her rescue techniques, & no more lizards were killed. Now I am just waiting to see what happens, when Sweetie discovers the lizards, I hope we can divert her from them, or she does what Mint used to do!

Good morning all from a damp and dull Norfolk. Feel tired today (nothing new there) so not a lot will get done apart from dinner and knitting. Doing the neck of my sweater and have managed to incorporate the neck gussets. Have as good a Monday as you can. xx
