Good morning everyone! I got my payment from MyLot last night. THANK YOU I got up this morning, got dressed and went to the toilet. Then I put the first load of washing on. I came into the living room and had my Levothyroxine tablets for my underactive thyroid. I have to wait half an hour after taking them before I have my breakfast. Then I turned on my tablet, and the first thing I did was check my weather app, because I wanted to see what the weather will be like tomorrow, incase I feel well enough to go to the little Tesco. But the weather tomorrow promises rain, so I might not be going anyway! It's a shame really, because it's a really nice, sunny day today! After that I opened my Twitter app (or should I say X) and I re-tweeted about 6 photos of landscapes, places, flowers, that kind of thing. I made sure I posted them in order of when they were posted, so the oldest one, say 18 hours ago, was re-tweeted first, then 16 hours ago, then 5 hours, 4 hours etc. After that I came out of the Twitter/X app, but left it on in the background, then went into my YouTube app. I then shared my latest YouTube video to Twitter, but I didn't tweet it as is, I added the Twitters of two friends on Twitter who I know usually like my posts and reply to them. It was a YouTube video talking about my shopping trip down town. I then swapped to one of my other Twitter accounts. On this one I check wether some of the celebrities I follow had been on. If they have I re-tweet their tweets. But there were no new tweets from them this morning. Then I go back to my feed, and click the box when it says see new tweets. On this one I do the same as on my other one, but with peoples art. I re-tweet several tweets of paintings or drawings that people have done, making sure I re-tweet the oldest first, and the newest last. If I'd re-tweeted tweets from celebrities I'd make sure their tweets were in the order. So if I had an art tweet from 18 hours ago, a celebrity who tweeted 16 hours ago, and then another art tweet from 5 hours ago, I'd retweet the art tweet from 18 hours ago, then I'd go back into my profile, go onto the post from the celebrity, un re-tweet it, then re-re-tweet it (!), then go back to my feed and re-tweet the art tweet from 5 hours ago! Am I being silly? After I re-tweeted all the art tweets that I wanted to, I went back into my profile, I went all the way back to my own tweet that I'd re-tweeted yesterday, went to the profile of my other Twitter/X account and re-tweeted the YouTube tweet that I'd tweeted a few minutes ago! Then I go back and read all the art tweets that I'd just re-tweeted, from oldest to more recent, till I got to the top where the YouTube tweet from my other account was! Then I swapped back to my other account ready to repeat the process tomorrow! I do have another Doctor Who Twitter/X account, but I do that on a night before I go to bed. After that I went to get my breakfast. After I'd had my breakfast I went and emptied my load of washing and put the woolly load on. Then I came to MyLot and wrote this post! What are you lot getting up to today? I hope you are all. Have a nice day.

You had a busy time tweeting and re-tweeting, I know it takes time. I baked muffins in the afternoon and I made some appetizers using puff pastry. I will cook salmon for dinner.

@sharonelton My muffin were vegan as I used vegetable oil instead of butter and they were very good. I also love salmon. The day is sunny, cold, but sunny.

@LadyDuck I use a combination of soy milk and maple syrup in mine. Should be half brown rice syrup and half maple but I can't get any brown rice syrup. Mine were very good too. Salmon is good, isn't it? I've been having it for Christmas dinner for several years now! Today it is dull and rainy, and it should stay dull for the rest of the week, but the rain should ease off.

@sharonelton Thank you. Things are good with me. I am a graphic designer but I do a number of different things. I work for a sign/printing company. Hope you have a nice day as well.

I haven't checked how much I've got in my PayPal account in ages! I don't like the fact that Elon Musk has renamed it X!

Interesting how you do that in order. I'm sure it took a lot of time to do. I'm planning a dinner party for tonight. Today's the day. I've been planning this for several months.

It doesn't really take that long. It was all done in half an hour. Wow! Who's coming to your dinner party? I hope you enjoy that. I hope you are well. Have a nice day.

I got completely lost with all that tweeting and re-tweeting. I don't tweet at all but I'm sure it's fun for those who do.

@JudyEv It's too short, it's boring and it's unnecessary!

@sharonelton That’s an exhausting lot of tweeting. I had to stay in for the Sky man to connect me to the world from my new house. He was done by 9.30 but the radiator man who said he’d be with us at 9 still isn’t here and it’s noon. After lunch we’ll take a long walk along the promenade and enjoy the sunny day with wind. Some grandchildren coming to visit later.

@sharonelton Yes, first time we’ll see the new house looking untidy! Still no radiator man, but we do have heat.

@xFiacre Well, you can't help being untidy when you've just moved in! You need time to settle in. They'll understand. I'm sorry your radiator man still hasn't come. I hope he comes soon..

It doesn't seem that much when you're doing it. It takes me about half an hour, so I can do that while I'm waiting to have my breakfast, because of having to wait half an hour after having my tablets. I glad the Sky man came to connect you! I hope the radiator man comes soon. Reminds me of when we were waiting for the plumber to come and connect our new washing machine! I hope you enjoy your walk along the promenade. It sounds delightful. I hope you enjoy your visit from your grandchildren too. Will this be the first time they'll have seen your new house? I hope you are well. Have a nice day.
