Walking back to Happiness

Violetsniffwoo ! Go for it! Umm re the icicles... Yes have thought about tackiling them but unfortunately only the lower portion of the window pushes out horizontally to open and they are attached to roof edge.

Luckily...although they are over the backdoor into businesses below... unless the baker loading van it is not in frequent use so hopefully injury is unlikely. Doh the Baker doesn't appear to have been baking much last couple of weeks just when could have done with his heat : ) 

Took phone into shop...err umm man tapped screen brightness button ahem so at least that problem fixed !

So if get out will take pics.

Well done to those out or even considering it.

Take care

Hi Everyone

My stinky cold has gone and my energy is back, the sun is shining and the snow has gone so I got myself up and out this morning to walk 3.km along the clifftop, I have missed my walking for the last 2 weeks so today was a restart and I really enjoyed it the air was fresh a perfect spring morning

Has anyone taken Citalopram and suffered nausea, I thought it was to do with my cold but cold has gone and nausea has remained, I delayed taking tablet in morning and bam the hot flushes returned so I'd rather feel sick than feel like I'm suffocating, has anyone got advice on dealing with the nausea

I hope everyone up north who still have the snow, stay safe and warm

...hi lovely to see you back...your walk sounds fantastic!! Have taken that med but didnt have any side effects...re- visit your GP? 

...shame the baker been off- duty,you could have done with the warmth....

A-n-y wayyyyyyy....

Well,wanted to go to local Church with Jess this morning...but Ch closed due to weather,but aome were meeting at Boston Tea Party,so ,I thought..I’m up for that!it is so near me,and off I went.I eventually found them,and shyly sat next to a male(why does this HAPPEN TO MEanyway...all were VERY friendly,and I bought this flapjck..it happened to break the ice coz I told themm I had given up chocolate for Lent...(just couldnt resist)and then the nice man opposite had a lil chat and a flapjack crumb had landed in my airway,and I started coughing and sneezing(the usual list of things which happen immediately  after I choke)and then my eye teared and then I got something in it and started madly winking involuntarily!!oh My!what must he have thought.I recovered and after talking with another lady and asking if I could help with crafty things,she gave me their address,and then I talked to a beautiful red haired lady about America... and then thought I would go...was

getting bit overwhelming...then went to wander round.I will call it the “Boston Triangle”..close to my home and full of brillliant shops...found a Sale,then came home.Brillo !!xx

Mmmm, looks yummy! 

I love walking, hope you're ok with me joining in here, it seems a thread I'd be happy to post in? 

But it's still rather icy here to walk quite yet, I did break my wrist a few years back in these conditions, so am reluctant to get out yet. 

We have a good few walks locally, hubs used to come too but since his spinal arthritis has really got bad he simply cannot. He can walk around the house and potter in the garden (he loves growing things to eat!) but uses a wheelchair further afield. That means the sort of walks we enjoyed together aren't available to him. And I feel I dare not to risk needing to be rescued, too! But I do usually manage a few miles each week.

Giggling at your debacle with the tea party. You sound just like me. I always end up making an ar** of myself. I can get so stupidly flustered yet could take an assembly of 300 children no worries. 

So I parked outside of the local town and walked around to pick up a few bits and bobs. I had forgotten it was a birthday so needed to post a card and add  a small pressie. I had it all in mind but thought the birthday was 8th. Hey ho! It got me out of the house and had a small gallop - mainly to miss the doggy doings! Grrrrrrr

Treated myself to a pot of daffs from Tesco and bought a decent pot of flowers from M/S for friend's birthday. She who I go to Rock Choir with. A coffee from the red cup place as well. I am so on the edge.

moomy all welcome especially if you can find yourself in compromising situations!!!! Tee hee.

So I started a jigsaw yesterday that has to be added to this afternoon. Mr Leo on Sunday lunch as he likes a drink on Sunday so that's his penance.

Take care and mind the icy patches of which there seem to be many

i really enjoyed getting out this morning...was going stir -crazy..and glad to offer my services ...even sat next to a lady who works for Oxfam and offered to do shop windows for her....would be wonderful...who knows what opportunities open up when we wander out.....xx

 Retired from headship 3 years ago..

Yup I reckon I put Miranda Hart in the shade.

If I am out with my girls and I go to the toilet they joke I always have a story about something that happened, went wrong or met someone when I return.

Tee hee

Hi all,

Getting a bit ‘stir-crazy’ now, with the snow, (lord knows how those in snowy upland areas cope!) I’m no longer young so walking is about all I manage, but the snow is taking an age to go and it will therefore be muddy, so I will need to stick to proper paths (yuk!).

Thank goodness for my yoga session tomorrow!

Hello, busy post today. Loving all your antics Violetsniff We've had a fab day here some great friends from london  came to visit , we walked to our favourite pub on th river then walked back to another pub for lunch. Their girls and ours natter away like they did when they were in school together some 8 years ago, it's ace and beautiful to see.

i partook in the wine at lunch so I'm now suffering with a headache again but am thinking it was worth it so not going to moan!

moomy all our snow has thankfully gone where abouts are  you?

 sorry can't help but wonder if there is something else you may be able to take to counteract the nausea. Seems a shame if it's working for th flushes, head back to your GP?

havea happy walking week all

Hi Jac and all, 

I'm in north Buckinghamshire, snow has almost gone now, but I did want to wait till all gone before getting out walking, I slipped on thawing snow before and broke my wrist, didn't want any risk of doing anything silly again! 

Off to yoga tomorrow morning....
