Thursday

 Good morning, everyone.  We have a bright start to the day here with sunshine, no less.   The sun came out yesterday too which was very cheering and I managed to get two loads of washing out on the line, dried and even ironed plus towels which always go in the tumble dryer for softness.

While sorting out Dad's airing cupboard, I can across a stack of tea towels that had never been used.  They were 'novelty' ones, mostly related to guiding (Mum was a keen Guider) with a few others including a Chatsworth one I have given her ages ago,.  Well, I wasn't going to throw them out so they have now been washed, ironed and in my tea towel drawer.  I won't need to buy any more tea towels for a long time to come, perhaps never now.

Jeff came round and did the usual, bless him.  He does a great job of keeping those weeds at bay.

My time with Lindsey was spent in massage and talk.  Both were very helpful; she's the sort of person you can say things to and know that they will be received thoughtfully and responded to wisely.  She advised me that I ought to consider seeing my GP about my ankles and calves, darn it.  I looked up online and it looks as if they are back to being able to make appointments face to face so I must go down early tomorrow (they open at eight) or Monday and see if I can get an appointment.  They are rarer than hen's teeth so I might have to see the duty doctor and it might take more than one visit to get an appointment but what can you do when you can't use the phone?  

The rest of the day was lazy.  I slept a lot (I'm sleeping so much!) watched iPlayer stuff, cooked and enjoyed meals and generally kept my feet up.

I've heard back from the funeral directors.  They have given me a date so I will respond to them this morning.

Today, there is nothing in the diary, not a sausage!  I have one load of clothes in the machine as I type and they can go out in the sunshine soon so will be dry and ready for ironing before the day is out.  There's a bit of tidying up to do so I will work on that but I need to rest my legs so that's what I will do.

Hoping you get lovely weather and have a happy day, whatever is on the list for you.  xx
