Mothering Sunday Thoughts for All Our Forum Family...

[Oldfloss]

A tricky time for all of us this year...but, time too, to embrace those we love and celebrate the love in our families and our friendships.

Have a safe, happy day all of you and, just because you cannot be with your Mum or Dad in person., why not take them with you... on a lovely uplifting run

Happy Mothering Sunday, all of you .

Floss

I have had a lovely potful of plants left outside and a bottle of champagne too! And my first Face time with Willow and her Mama and Dada... it was wonderful..been for a very short run too in glorious sunshine!

Thank you xx

Hope you are still making progress my friend xx

[Dexy5 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

How lovely Oldfloss. I was talking to my cousin yesterday about her using FaceTime for the the first time with her family,. We are lucky that we can still use technology and phone calls to stay in touch with loved ones.

Do enjoy your plants and bubbles 🌷🌹💐🍾🥂

My knee is coming along and walking is much better. Fingers crossed my physio appointment isn’t cancelled again. 🤞

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Dexy5]

All sounding good... yes, I am just moving some fuchsias and geraniums I over wintered into the new home... I shall have an official birthday opening in April!

[Cantstopmenow Graduate]

Thank you. You too. We love the place on the opposite side of the estuary! 💖

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Cantstopmenow]

Just perfect! x

[Fionamags Graduate]

[Decker]

All the best to you Floss, and to all the Mums today, especially those who cannot be with their children or grandchildren today. Hope you have a lovely day however you can. xxoo

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Decker]

Thanks you... and what a lovely sentiment, strange times my friend... and how better to use these times to remember what is important in our lives.. x

[Fionamags Graduate in reply to Decker]

Ive joined the app called House Party. My daughter is going to 'party' with me later! We had a skype party with a group of friends last night too and it was brilliant - highly reccomend it.

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Fionamags]

Just super... everything we can do to keep our body and our minds fit and healthy!

[Bluebirdrunner Graduate]

Happy Mothers Day dear Floss, 🌷

Yes, we know we are loved, and we give love freely to our families and friends. Today is a day when we celebrate that love, but our love is strong and we find ways to show it without actually being together.

Those Face time chats will be precious and hold you up and keep you strong. ❤

😊xxx

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Bluebirdrunner]

Thank you my friend... enjoy your day!

Yes.. small one was quite taken with the idea once she got used to it..she is finding it quite hard to compute everything right now...she will get there though xx

[Vintage61 Graduate]

Beautiful photo, thx for sharing 🙏

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Vintage61]

Welcome.. how are you, is all well with you

[Vintage61 Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

All good. Work very busy and waiting for the surge but proud of my teams. Hope all is good for you my friend 😊

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Vintage61]

Brilliant.. are you still getting some runs in ?

[Vintage61 Graduate]

Oh for sure. Couldn’t cope without them! Improving my pace and managed a 10k last week. Really chuffed.

[MartinKH Graduate]

Beautifully said Oldfloss, nearly all of us are thinking what you have said.

[LiisaM Graduate]

I am thinking of all the mums who are not getting things today or not getting called. You are loved, too. Sometimes your kin just don't show it or are not good at knowing how to show it. I fought with my mum like cats and dogs but I guess she knew I loved her because of three of us, she asked me to take care of her in the end....

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to LiisaM]

So true..and our friends who are there acting like family...xxx
