Memorandum Monday

Hey Monday! I'd love to say I'm ready to grab you with both hands - and I certainly hope lots of you have a spring in your step this morning - but, after a weekend of more antibiotics here, I'm finding it hard to get going.

I'm absolutely sure that you don't want to hear about the state of my sinuses. That's if you can make me out at all. I'm believe I'm a bit difficult to decipher at the minute. My hearing is off a little, too. Last night, just as I was falling asleep, I heard a voice beside me sigh and say "I do love you, beard". He says he said babe; but, you know, I'm glad he's good with his fashion choices. And if he wants to talk to his own facial hair, who am I to stop him?

In any case, we got to sleep, and now it's Monday, and that means it's time to make a note of anything new I did over the weekend. Sorry, then, that it's back to the congestion; because in a weekend which was quiet, of course, about the only thing I learned is that onion soup really is good for a bad nose. We made a big vat of it on Saturday, and we slurped it right through Sunday, and we found that it actually does help to clear the head.

Or maybe that was the Vick? Or the Olbas Oil? Or the spray? Or the garlic capsules? No: let's say it was the soup, because it was A Good Thing about yesterday. That, and - yes - the sock knitting. You can gauge (ha)  how much sitting about I've been doing if I tell you this is the second of a new pair. Socks rock. And soup's not bad either.

So, how about you? What did you learn that you didn't know before? Do anything new? We'd love to hear about it! Think of all the useful facts we'll gather if we keep collecting all year..

Last week  Louise H, Deb, Ruth, Jane, Mardi, Sue, Karen, Maggie, Denise, Ladkyis, Eileen, Susanne, Mitra, Karen, Mary-Lou, Miriam, Rinda, Melissa, Barbara, Krafty Karen, Alison, Cheri, Julia and Fiona made a memorandum on Monday.  Come, join us!
