Good Morning Early Birds

[LadyCG]

Good morning, Birdies.  Another stupidly early wake-up for me, coughing for England.  Honestly, I'm so drained from coughing.  

 

I've made the OH's sandwiches and I might as well jump on the computer and do some work, since I have zero chance of getting back to sleep.  

 

I start my new job role today but I'm still expecting to get lots of calls for my last job as I am still keeping the same extension number.  I've informed switchboard and pretty much anyone I can think who might contact me about the changeover but I imagine few will take notice until they've called and been told the same thing repeatedly... will have to put an autoreply on my emails too.  

 

I've booked tomorrow off and I'll be making a nice, healthy soup and just relaxing and taking it easy.  

 

Does anyone have any nice plans for the coming weekend?

 

Whatever you're doing, have a super day! 🤗

[Barmaid]

I've not gone to bed yet!  Still blummin working.  I'll be like a zombie in front of Her ladyship later!

[LadyCG]

Oh no, you must be exhausted, BM.  You really need some rest.  I do at least feel like I've had some sleep and maybe once this cough clears I'll be able to sleep for longer.

What time do you have to be somewhere today? ❤

[Bobbisox1]

What kind of ungodly hour is this?.. I woke around 03-50 with a bunged up nose, one where you can only breathe through your mouth which makes your mouth very dry, I'll probably try going back to bed  a bit later but right now I'm having a decaf , Good Morning btw to both of you 🙈

[LadyCG]

Good morning, Bobbi.  This is indeed early for you.  I too was bunged up this morning in my right nostril.  I also woke with a very full bladder.  

 

I could do with replenishing my mug of tea.  

 

Did you have a nice day with your friends yesterday?

[Bobbisox1]

Yes we did, my sister in law and her neighbour came too , we left the pub around six though as it was getting full of the Black n Whites ( Toon Army ) who were playing Paris Saint Germain in the UEFA Champions League only to come home to Mr B engrossed in it, happily they won 4-1😊

we had a good catch up and mainly chatted about our coming holiday like happy schoolgirls as my sil and her neighbour are coming too 

[LadyCG]

That's something to look forward to, Bobbi.  The weather should be glorious too 😎 🏖 🍸

[Bobbisox1]

I've been to the Canariesa few times in November and the weather has averaged around 25 degrees so it'll be a nice break away from the coldness we have here , I don't mind the dark nights at all here though, I find them rather cosy , I wasn't keen on the dark mornings when I worked though , happily I normally sleep through them now, I'm going to catch up on some emails and phone calls, you know the ones like I must ring so and so , my turn and stuff like that .

is your new job similar to the one you've been doing Lcg ? Obviously a step up though 

[LadyCG]

Very similar but more demanding and so more organisation is required.  Despite being told that the job was mine by someone who was on the interview panel actually prior to interview I was still surprisingly nervous.  

 

It's good to catch up on calls, etc.  I have one or two people I need to call (quite overdue) and I shouldn't wait until Christmas as it looks like I'm just calling out of duty.  It's my nan's birthday on Sunday too.  

 

I've still never been to the Canaries, Bobbi.  Must rectify that.

[LadyCG]

I hope BM is all tucked up and getting some much-needed sleep.  

[Chipchopper]

Good morning all!

Stay well and upright.

Take care

[LadyCG]

Good morning, Chip.  I think I would rather be lying recumbent right now and dreaming about my own private tropical island, a hammock and a Butler.  

 

How are you today?

[Chipchopper]

Just watch out for those falling coconuts😎

[Patsy33]

Good morning! Not usually up at this hour but not sleeping lately. Awake all night. I'll probably drop back off soon. Hope all of you are well apart from a few bunged up noses..

[netibiza]

Morning everyone

 Hope you all have a good day. Am doing lots of autumn cleaning to get rid of summer dust as it cooler but still hot!

[LadyCG]

I use 'em coconuts 🥥 🌴 to make me a bra, Chip.  All I'll need to go with is a grass skirt ⛱️ 

 

Morning Patsy 🌄 How are you today? 😊 

[Patsy33]

Hi Lcg. I'm tired thanks 😄 Hope you can soon shake that cold off! At least you have tomorrow off to rest. 😀

[Bobbisox1]

Back on board again after going back to bed , I've had a couple of hours sleep so I'm feeling a bit more human now 

[LadyCG]

Morning, Neti. I hope you're well.  A good clean out is immensely satisfying 😌

if muhdarm is coughing AND you know the reason why,

then you COULD suppress it with a small dose of codeine ( 10 or 15 mg) - this wd allow you to sleep
