Wednesday

Good morning!  Beeb was right again.  Yesterday was cold but beautifully sunny and what a cheering sight it was too.  Today, they say, will be very much the same - excellent.

Yesterday turned out very pleasantly.  SW was good and I was slimmer of the month which was unexpected and very pleasing.  Motivating too.

Then I came home and set to with my knitting - or, rather, my sewing up.  It's finished now, what I was making) so I've started on that lovely variegated yarn which is knitting up very nicely.  WIth all the hand knits I have, I'm not going to feel cold for years to come!

Tuition was fun, as usual, and there was no need to run me home yesterday; it was still sunny and quite bright as the days are noticeably longer as the sun sets later.  Beth came round at about six (with a bunch of flowers for me) and forty minutes later the taxi arrived so off we set.

It was lovely.  We both started with cocktails, something I hardly ever do, so it was goodbye to dry January for the evening.  We had olives with garlic bread, then a pizza and finally a dessert while we talked and talked and talked.  A really super evening, thanks very much, Beth.

Today starts with Jeff at eight thirty, moves on to a cuppa with Chris over the road at eleven thirty and finishes with a governors' meeting at six, so I must look out all the paperwork.  It between times, I must take advantage of the fine weather and get some washing done and out on the line.  Beth has stayed here overnight and, I think, will be doing some sorting out of her office/workroom.  I have plenty of black bags, if needed!!

So that's that for today.  Have a great day, everyone.  xx
