5.7 today

Sun was out today in Blackpool! Forgot how good that feels. It's been a long time. Welcome back. Here to stay hopefully....but I'm a glass half full girl! Especially tonight as you will soon find out.

Saturday night.....don't cha just love em. Queued as usual for the worlds best kebab. Worth every second of the 30 minutes.

Back home now.... large glass of red poured. Hubby feeling left out at work cos everyone watching.....and discussing....Love Island. So tonight .....12 episodes. A marathon. I have a feeling this won't my only glass of red!!!

On a lighter note I'm going to catch up on my favourite thread. Every cloud....

A highish 5.7 for me this morning. Wet dog aroma prevailing here again. Has anyone seen the summer as it is definitely AWOL round here.

Saw a glimpse today!

Fbg 10.4 at 6am

Found a roof tile sliding down my roof yesterday, so text my usual roofer (but it’s 2 years since he last came), but no reply. He had iPhone before so message was in blue couple years ago, but now the message I sent is green, so either he’s changed his phone or not in business and someone else has his number.

So it’s research a new roofer who texts, but a lot are landline only for initial contact (landline no good with me being deaf, I need text).

I need a roofer today before that tile shifts any further. I have a ladder, but I cannot get up it any more or else I would bed it in with cement myself...

I didn't do ladders even when I was 20-something. I could manage the ladder up to the attic, but it was in a hallway with walls all around. I could never do a roof. I maybe a cat person, but I will leave the roofs to the cats, whether hot tin or cold slate.

Morning...feeling a bit rough...my knee was a nightmare yesterday...nothing seemed to take the edge off it...even prescription pain killers...I have spoken to my GP just before he leaves he's made a referral to the MSK team...will go for an x- ray in a week or so...wondering if the rise in my BG's (not a huge one) is a result of the pain/stress...it is slightly easier this morning but I won't be doing much today...on a positive note the sun is out and I have good coffee...woke to a 6.3

Coffee and sympathy and a hug, Bubbsie, and some purrs from the KittenCat. Take care.

Cats definitely like roofs!!!

But roofs are beyond me now...however in response to my internet searches I got this gorgeous ginger haired young man...he went up the ladder and bedded in the tiles...but it cost me £80...

I don't work regularly every day week or month dunelm...so have no set morning routine...yesterday was an aberration...I have a can of instant coffee for visitors only (those who have no objection to it)...I have so many types of coffee making machines from the complicated Kenwood one (that makes all the right noises)...numerous cafetieres...the stove top percolator...an electric percolator...filter... and in the brick outhouse still in possession of several full packing cases from our move here six years ago is my favourite... a filter machine you can pre-programme to have your coffee ready when you wake...perhaps the 'instant incident' will provide the incentive for us to unpack those boxes and release it.

Where is the WOWWWWW button

Such shocking weather all over. Hard to believe it's June!

It's the same here. We thought the summer had come in early, with very high temps back in May. Then we got a few days of rain, and now it is chilly again. It was below 20 this morning, which is almost unheard of for June. I even put a sweatshirt on over my pajama top until I had my coffee. I walked over to the grocery store about an hour ago and although much warmer, it was still comfortable, around 26 degrees, not bad for mid-afternoon in June.

Here is a magic wishing well from my garden...
Make a wish and it might come true...

Dear Dennis,

You are a darling! Welcome to the dog-and-cat forum.

By the way, there is a lovely little lady on here, name of Wispa ...

Purrs (no licks, please),

I’ve just caught up with posts so from international bin day to frisky young things frolicking in gardens green, to 89 year olds with really full lives, to cats with their pawsies crossed to Cornwall adventures to monsoon season in Britain. Fortuitously not a mention about all things brexit..

So my morning lightened by your posts to my randometer. A 4.7 resplendent on the screen. Nice to be out of the 3’s

Today I’m venturing towards catching up with laundry as my garage laundry has been out of action for a week ... there are only 2 of us thankfully.

I wish you all a very merry Friday. Kim xx

Did someone mention Brexit!!!!????

£80 would be a bit steep for a ladder or a roof, but for a gorgeous ginger-haired guy ...

Hmm ... seems reasonable to me!

While we were away it was between 11 and 14 degrees daytime.

@DJC3 What a lovely little pup.
@SaskiaKC Thanks for the prayers. We will need every one of them. Taking children away these days is a minefield.
@Debandez I too caught a very brief glimpse of the sun this morning between the showers.
Off for a coffee to recover from a very long and unexciting meeting!

What a little cutie!!! The time is right. Enjoy the new family member. What a lucky chap he is.

Looks adorable. Will be fascinating to see the impact Dennis has on your bg levels and general wellbeing. I have a hunch your bg is about to improve. I seriously doubt that you are slapdash, just doing your best. Seems to me plenty of us stare at this Rosrach blot and see all sorts of hidden patterns and meanings which aren't actually there.

I’m sure he’ll have a positive effect on wellbeing but maybe offset by lack of sleep for the first few days at least if I remember new puppy behaviour rightly.
Cant help agreeing with your point about Rosrach blot interpretation.
