Day Ninety Seven - Rain and rugs

[byslantedlight]

I think what was making me sleepy yesterday might have been a bug rather than statue-cleaning after all, I felt rubbish today. On the happier side - I feel mostly better now, so I have hopes it'll vanish completely in the next day or two. Landlady had something tummy-ish a few days ago, I expect it's that... *headdesk* But also:

On the bright side - rain! And dramatic skies! Actually really heavy rain for a while too, which is always fun, and a wee rumble of thunder, too.

But my midsummer flowers are still with me... *g*

And when I'd finished work for the day I watched more Arrow (John Barrowman in leather!)... ...and finished that hookrug thingie I started ages ago. It's about cushion-sized, and I'm wondering about doing some other squares to go around it, and make it rug-for-winter-mornings-sized...

My plan for tomorrow is also making me happy - off out, and going for a walk somewhere. I so need some exercise!

Hope the improvement continues, and that you feel right as rain by tomorrow.

I felt a bit better, and I feel more better tonight, I think, so so far so good! Thank you! *g*

Nice Doyle icon, btw! *g*

Glad you're on the mend!
Icon, btw, is made by she-of-whom-we-do-not-speak. I was tempted to delete them all, but then figured I'd only be hurting myself by doing it.

Ha - my first question about she-of-whom-we-do-not-speak was, sadly, which one? Then I checked your userpic credits and found out... *g* Actually I thought I did still see her around Pros a bit - and I thought in your lj, commenting now and then, but I must be thinking of someone else's lj then...

I really do wish people weren't such sodding people... far too many of them are...

That would be right. I missed all the original hoo-ha and we remained lj friends until about two years ago, when I asked her to please stop leaving racist comments in my journal. She continued to do so, and I defriended her and stopped following her on twitter. She defriended me but still follows my twitter for some reason *shrug*.

Oh no, I had no idea, I guess I missed those comments... I remember the homophobia suddenly cropping up, years before and the rest of the hoo-ha but.... well just... gods, what is it with people? How do they still think any of that is okay...? *sigh*

I'd heard that bad weather was heading your way. Hope you're not in the center of it!

According to the weather warning map, the entire mainland UK is in the center of it - except the very north east of Scotland! I'm basically expecting the kind of rain that we didn't get all that excited about a dozen years ago. Hard rain, yes, but... rain. You know. Maybe some wind. *g* (Actually I shouldn't say that, should I? What's the betting I'm taken out by a freak tornado and/or lightning strike whilst I sleep tonight...?!)

I read your post header as Rain and drugs... but then again I have just driven 295 miles and feel a bit woozy :) Hope you're feeling better!

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Heeee! I feel as if I must have let you down terribly, now... *g* Hope your wooziness is less though, and that you had a fab time away (that was 295 miles to get you back right?)! And thank you - mostly better, and at least not currently requiring drugs for that!)

Here in the north west we haven't experienced any rain yet ..hopefully it will bypass us but judging by the forecast we may get some tomorrow , and yay for a walk somewhere , anywhere...I hope you enjoy it xx

According to the weather warning maps, the entire mainland UK is covered in scary rain tomorrow! My memories of living for many years in Manchester translate that as business as usual... *g*

It was definitely good to get out and about today - yeay! *g*

[ali15son.livejournal.com]

Well you were definatley correct ....the heavens have opened , rain rain everywhere x

Heee! Here too, but there's a lovely fresh blustery autumn feel to it, which I adore! Summer can come back again after, that's fine, but I like this change in the weather. *g*
