Today's trip to the little Tesco. (10/9/2024)

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 10 Sep 24

I've just been to the little Tesco again. I didn't need to get much. I looked at my weather app before I went, and it said 51% chance of rain, and it had a symbol of a cloud with raindrops falling from it at 10:00am. So I decided...

I went to see my Mum in hospital again today. There was a new lady in the bed next to my Mum today. She must have come in yesterday after we'd left. Her name is Barbara too, so now they've got two Barbaras! This lady was in a bad...

We set off at about 2:30pm, and I took a Tesco magazine that I got yesterday for her. It was threatening rain and it was windy out. I wore my grey coat without the hood which is very warm. Underneath I was wearing my new white...

I've been shopping today. I went out wearing my mac with the hood because it said it might rain. It was raining before I went out but it had stopped when I did go out. When I was on my way I got a bit hot so I undid the zip on my...

What a day!

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 6 Oct 22

What a day we've had today! Mum was supposed to go to the hairdressers today for a wash, a blow dry and a trim. She was supposed to go at 10:30am but when she tried to get up off the sofa, she couldn't do it. She tried and she...

Is it Mom, Mum or Mammy?

Linda Mansfield (Snowdrop) @sprite1950 (30461) • Corsham, England 29 Nov 21

It occurs to me that most people call their mother "Mom" although in England we say "Mum". Is there anywhere else in the world that uses the same word as we do? In Wales and I think Ireland they often use Mammy and in some parts...

So it's just turned the 7th of April here. This is a day I never enjoy from start to finish. I do whatever I can to try keep myself occupied. Or better yet, I try to sleep through most of it. I don't enjoy any of this month. It...

Today would have been my mum's 95th birthday. She died 5 years ago on February 16th but I was glad she made her birthday. We always celebrated it and took her presents and cards which she loved opening. She told us we shouldn't...

Did your mum ever cut your hair when you were young?

Linda Mansfield (Snowdrop) @sprite1950 (30461) • Corsham, England 10 Aug 19

I was looking through some old photos yesterday and had to laugh at some of the terrible haircuts my mother gave me when I was small. I don't remember feeling upset so I suppose I was too young to care what I looked like. Back in...

12 years today.

****DANIELLE**** @VivaLaDani13 (60812) • Perth, Australia 6 Apr 19

It is 12am here. The 7th of April. Marks 12 years today since my mum died. Sometimes I worry ( even though I know I shouldn't ) that people will think that I post about her to gain sympathy. I'm honestly not. There is a reason why...
