I’ll show a pic later with my makeup done. The amount of people that don’t believe my age is pretty funny. People think chloes my sister rather than my daughter it’s actually funny.
But that is fantastic. It is a testament to how well you look after yourself. And You look really beautiful, So I am not sure why you worry about how you look all the time.

Good Morning Everyone. It rained a little bit today, which is fortuitous considering I did not water the garden yesterday.
I love the clean smell you get after it has rained.

So glad it is Thursday. Hey, has anyone seen Jason around? Maybe Jason was the fly and Cathie squished him and threw him into her trash can?

Just a heads up to those throwing points around here and there, Adam being the Dark Lord of the Cold Dark Rooms is the only one allowed to give or take points. So be careful, he just might take more away from you. I will probably get points taken away for telling you, but hey what are friends for.

Have a great Thursday all.

I believe jay started back at work Monday which could explain why he hasn’t been around.
he might be on come weekend with but of luck. It’s a bit quiet around here without him haha.
I love the clean air after a good downpour. I like sitting at my back door watching the rain fall.

Oh No. Lets hope it wasn't someone from the CDR rooms spying on you. Is anybody missing? I think it is time to do a roll call, to make sure that all our roommates are still here and not in Cathie's trash can.
Only one I know of who hasn’t been around is @Chubbs the tegu
? maybe he’s been swatted and thrown on the trash ? ?

Yeah Me too. I am trying to get my husband to change our bedroom around so that when I am lying in my bed and look out side our window and Can see the majority of my garden. He did say yes, but hasn't done it yet. I just might do it myself this weekend. ?

Thank you. I hope it goes soon. I’ve been taking cough syrup cavornia. But hasn’t touched. Any recommendations for a dry/chesty cough would be gratefully received
An old wives tale which always helps for kids when they have a cough, is to take vicks vaporub (I am sure you guys must get it there as well) and you rub it onto the soles of your feet and then put socks on to cover them, then you rub it on your chest, throat and back (the back as far as you can reach - obviously) and then cover again with a top. That will loosen the phlegm and help with the coughing. If you don't have the vicks vaporub then use whatever is the closest product to it.

LOL. The heels will kill me. If I had to put them on, I would throw my back out, no.1 and secondly fall flat on my face. ?? My husband then would fall flat on his face from all the laughter. Ha Ha. Don't worry I have kickboxing skills I can use to kick his butt.

Just keep on doing that then. But don't forget to apply it when it wears off. It will help. The other thing you can do to help ease your chest is to put it into a bowl with hot water, and then to lean over it with a towel over your head and inhale the fumes. I also saw on a program called "Anne with an E" she used onion on the bottom of the childs soles under her socks which helps with the mucous etc. Try it, it may just help. I know Sabine always mentioned onions when it came to flu like symptoms etc.

Good morning! Hope you are feeling better! Hope Pumpkin is too! I saw your other thread.. you may spoil him with the hand feeding. I think one of our other members here had that problem.. @Lyn W
She’s eating fine now. She was after the fruit. Loves raspberry ?.
I’m ok feeling drained.
rang the hospital up. Apparently someone is going to ring me back and talk me through the results so I’m kinda shi? Bricks at moment.
