Tuesday

 Morning, everyone!  It's dry outside but it does feel a fair bit chillier than the last few days.  Yesterday ended up as a nothing sort of day - precious little sun, just a bit dull and gloomy.

Thank you for your ironing comments.  I seem to be in a minority here < grin > ; after all, I even iron tea towels although there is a practical reason for this.  They fit much better in their limited storage space when they are nice and flat and ironed and not crumpled up at the edges.

It was nice to get back to circuits yesterday.  Lindsey had little pity on out week of festive indulgence and worked us hard.  It was good fun - four of us there, one online and one with an injured foot, I believe (nothing to do with Lindsay) who should be able to come next week.

Lindsey has set us a challenge which is to do a hundred squats each day this week.  She has a YouTube clip of this - twenty five repeats of four different squats while the kettle boils!
If you want to see what Lindsey is like, here's the clip from her YouTube channel.

I caught up with the new Pottery Throw Down on record yesterday.  Obviously, having a 'clean bottom' is the 'soggy bottom' of the pottery world - I wonder if Channel four decided it must have a 'slightly naughty hook' like Bake Off.  It doesn't come over nearly as well as when uttered by Mary or Paul, I have to say!
However, the programme was great and there seems to be some fabulous potters taking part this time.   I'm looking forward to how it all develops.  Did anyone else watch it?

Yesterday's Twelve Days present was a suncatcher.  You may remember that, before Christmas, I went into town and bought some glass tree ornaments from a stall on the market.  As well as those, I bought an owl and decided to make it a Twelve Days gift.  I'll take off the cord loop and use one of those removable stick on hooks (assuming it sticks to glass) to fasten it to a window but I'm not sure which one yet.

I didn't really get an awful lot else achieved yesterday apart from the ironing so I definitely have to use my list today or I will get all behind.

I want to sort out that bedding, get the candle decorations away, take the Christmas tablecloths, etc, up and away, dismantle the snow village and do some dusting/polishing.  That ought to keep me out of trouble, don't you think?
Oh, and I must pop round the corner to Morrisons as I'm very low on fresh food and some dairy.

What are your plans for today now that things are getting back to normal?

Stay safe and warm.  xx
