Hello lovelies
I forgot to say that your wedding set looks lovely
@bling_dream19, it’s amazing what a good clean can do. I did all mine the other day, even though I’ve barely worn them recently. Your set is so well matched, and I do like the fact that the diamonds in the bands are the same size, I just find it aesthetically more pleasing.
Oy
@MamaBee, what an absolute pain that your dryer has given up the ghost. During the summer, I prefer to hang clothes outside to dry, especially bedding, but not an option in the winter. Hopefully, you can manage until you’re able to get it sorted out. It never rains but it pours! I hope you manage to get ‘Christmas’ put away quickly. That’s definitely one advantage of not bothering to put anything up.
I use that expression too
@canuk-gal, when we’re waiting for a food delivery, I open the fridge and say to Colin “It’s a bit Mother Hubbard in there”. I’m sorry that I must’ve missed the post where you fell, I hope you didn’t hurt anything other than your pride.
Thanks for the good wishes
@marcy, it’s great you’re still able to see people safely, I think that’s what I miss the most about this situation, I’m less bothered about going out per se, than I am about not seeing our friends and chatting over a nice meal. Any progress with Marty’s truck?
Good luck with your hunt for a new place
@Slick1, and yes I remember you were recently MOTG, as my friend said, at least I don’t have to buy a hat!
Not long to wait until Greg’s appt tomorrow
@missy, and I’m glad the surgeon checked in again to make sure he’s ok. Hopefully he’s not still got the terrible headache, and is generally feeling a little better. I haven’t played Rummikub for years now, we still have a set, and must dig it out and re-read the rules. We used to play a lot when Adam was little.
Glad everything is good with you and yours
@junebug17, it nice to have a good long chat with friends, even if you can’t see them in person.
Kim FT yesterday to show me the wedding rings she’d looked at when she collected her ring. They tried to tell her that at some stage, she’s going to have to have her ring remade at a cost of $20,000
Er no, I don’t think so!!!! Because of the shape of her ring, she was looking at curved bands, but wants something she can wear on it’s own. We looked at various bands, and she’s quite keen on having a sapphire and diamond band, but the one she chose would need her to be very careful with it, and I gently pointed out that I didn’t think it would be suitable for every day wear. I showed her some on
IDJ and
Blue Nile, which were considerably cheaper than she‘d be shown at the store. As she has no clue how big carat weights of bands are, I suggested she look on Bernice and maybe order a few, to see what will go with her ER, as well as looking good on it’s own, and also suggested she get a 2mm spacer band so she’s not restricted to curved bands. During the conversation, Adam and Colin became comatose
We started painting the dining room today, I did the coving and edges, then Colin did the rest of the ceiling. I then painted the skirting boards, so tomorrow, we’ll be able to paint the walls. We’ll take down the curtain pole before painting, and once it’s done, I’ll put up the new pole and iron the replacement curtains I’ve bought.
Hope you’re all having a good start to the week
