Saturday

Good morning, everyone.  It's a damp start to the day but no ice, no frost, no complaints.

Yesterday was OK.  I'm still not feeling great, on and off; this virus keeps nibbling at the edges and then leaving!  However, Beth came over - I'd forgotten she was coming - which was really nice.  I'd only got enough tomato soup out of the freezer for one so I added a good dollop of tomato puree, a stock pot and some water and it was absolutely delicious so that's something learnt!

Beth needed to go to Hobbycraft so she drove me.  They only had minimal pottery supplies but I did get an A4 sheet of red foam to make bits and bobs for the mice (the carol book covers, etc) and they had some lovely sketchbooks on special so I invested in a couple.

Once home, I crashed out on my chair and went to sleep,

And that was about it really!

Today, Alex is home from uni so Dave (my son) and I are going over to Beth's for lunch.  I'm really looking forward to that.  Apart from that, I will take life easy and do some knitting, etc.  I do seem to be doing a lot of that this week, in between coffees with friends.

Have a great weekend, whatever you have planned to do.
xx

  1. How lovely to have the family lunch to look forward to. Sorry you're still feeling unwell - this bug thing that's currently going around seems to be one that doesn't want to leave you entirely, I've read several blogs where people say it keeps coming back. Hope it goes away for good soon, Joy. In the meantime, relax and knit as much as you like, your body is clearly telling you it needs it.

    1. It's a right obstinate little [something rude] and I will be glad when it finally departs. :-) It's not bad enough to take to my bed but very wearing. Just one of those things.

      I thought it was brightening up here but has gloomed over again now.
