Good morning from s somerset, rain during the night and sun later

A full pottering day yesterday but restful at the same time, some seed sowing, spinning, a strenuous walk up a hill, the whole walk only takes 30 minutes, it was a bit easier yesterday so perhaps I have shed some weight.

To end the day I decided to finish mouche bear dungarees, tiny needles and no memory of where I had left off over six months ago They are done now and today I will cast on a mouche bear, for those dungarees. I have decided to make more so that each AC and dgc can have one when I have popped my clogs. Then one each for my sisters and finally some for me, not just bears but character animals with clothes and friendly faces

I will be confined to quarters today, first the organic delivery, then to make kefir and fermented probiotic creamy `yoghurt`
My paper pattern copies came late yesterday, today I will be comparing and measuring as I want to get a good gardening top first time, not a toile. Fit must be loose enough, for layering or solo but not baggy

Have a good day

Good morning from a rather damp Malta. It’s also very windy.

The boys wore me out yesterday, neither took a nap and they ran outside in their socked feet and went straight through the dog’s pee!🤦‍♀️

I took them to the park for a couple of hours to run off their energy.

Today they have photo day at nursery so I’ve to take them at ten, then bring them home and their other gp’s will take them back at 1.30 for the afternoon session. What a palaver!

Hope you feel better soon Sallyforth.💐

Wishing a good day to all.☀️

Ash, apart from the fact that it’s easier to get an audience with the pope than to see my GP, it’s just that things seem to be more complicated than expected. E.g. the pc man. This was supposed for me to just give him a password and he dealt with it remotely, but no, yesterday, he was giving me (impenetrable) instructions over th3 phone for nearly two hours before we gave up…

Good morning Mick and grandMattie from a dark Cheshire morning. The birds are awake though and singing out there.

Not feeling great today, so I won't linger here. Although I did smile when I misread that your 'socks were down' GM!

Take care everyone and have the best day possible.

Good morning from Torbay where the weather is likely to be fine after early rain.

I hope the concert in which your DGD is singing goes well, grandMattie. A happy coincidence that the choir is singing in your church. Perhaps you need to have your tiredness checked with your GP?

I hope to toddle to the nearest little bistro for a coffee this morning. Have a lovely day, if possible. 🦩💐🦩🥰🦩

Good morning from a damp Bristol. We need a bit more rain.

Yesterday went much as planned except that my lovely pc man couldn’t get into my pc to do remote repairs, despite us trying for nearly two hours. He’ll be back!

I made some marmalade as my stocks are low.

Today, DD is picking me up for dinner before coming back here. DGD is singing in my church with the Bristol Youth Choir. I don’t know what the programme is.

Spanish this morning. My lift back is away, so I’ll have to walk home, up that horrible hill.

I’m very tired and hope to get some rest in the net few days but am not holding my breath!

Carpe diem 🦩🦩🦩🦩
