25-03-25

Good morning, everyone.  Do you have times when all the days feel like different days.  After going out on Sunday afternoon, which hardly ever happens and which made Sunday feel like Saturday, yesterday's not going to circuits made the day feel like Sunday so I woke up this morning thinking it was Monday!

Not for long though because I remembered I did loads of housework yesterday, which I hardly ever do on a Sunday, and we had our lovely Slim Win  online friends chat last night.

After a dreadful night's sleep over Sunday night, I was so pleased that I managed to stay awake through yesterday so that when I went to bed after a day when I did more than the usual Monday housework, I can't even remember turning the lamp off and slept solidly until 5:50.  Thank goodness for that!

The Bubbles, Squibbles and Squeak saga slows down now.  Squeak has been fed and is now in the fridge, Bubbles was already there and Squibbles is also there but her lid isn't clipped down.  The first two will have weekly feeds unless I want some activated starter and Squibbles will be added to and used as and when B and S have been fed.
I'm now wanting to  try various different recipes to see what works and what doesn't but let's be sensible here.  I need to find a 'bank' of people who won't mind me tossing bread in their direction although I am pretty sure Beth will be happy to take some.  

Maybe focaccia???  Hmmm - I wonder.

So - it is now Tuesday (nearly typed Monday)!  I've slept like a log, thank goodness, and all I have in the diary is Groove.  The weather looks to be pleasant so Chris and I will walk - and chat - there and back.  I have bedding to wash, etc, windows to clean and, assuming it isn't cold, I think I will freshen up the Garden Room ready for those warm days to come.  I'm getting on with that cardigan.  The back is done and I've started the sleeves; this time I am doing both at the same time on the same set of needles so I know the shaping is the same and I don't have to keep counting rows so much.

What are your plans for today?

All the best, happy Tuesday, enjoy your life and stay safe and well.  xx

  1. Crafting today although my family are cross that I am going as it’s only 6 days since my left eye was done. Catriona

  2. Nothing like a good night's sleep! I can't remember when I managed more than 4 hrs uninterrupted.

    Well done you for knitting both sleeves on the same needle, I've tried but don't enjoy having to keep the yarns untangled. I use those stitchmarkers that look like little padlocks and put one in every 20 rows, makes row counting much easier.

    1. I have to remember to turn the right way or, yes, it gets rather twisted! Good idea about the markers - I just mark the last increase (or decrease) on sleeves but I will adopt the 20 row strategy, thanks very much. xx

  3. Invigilating week so I'm making the most of the decent phone signal and catching up on blogs.

    1. It'll be lovely to hear from you more (when you can). Hope the invigilating goes well. Didn't you say you'd be stopping that soon? xx

  4. Foccacia sounds VERY good, and it would fit through letterboxes if you want to send your readers a slice each. 😀

    I have little idea which day it is these days, renovation, the flat sale and closing my company down is all merging into one long week of Mondays. Today is 'Carpet Day' at Mum's bungalow that's all I need to know for now. 😄

  5. It's disconcerting when the days muddle themselves. I'm a day ahead of myself at present, for no good reason.

  6. I understand completely about muddled days. I am finding myself having way more of those than I would like. Focaccia sounds wonderful. How about pizza crusts?

    God bless.

    1. Yes, pizza, for sure. That can be my fakeaway meal on Friday. Thanks, Jackie! xx

  7. I love focaccia! I hate it when the days are all muddled up. It messes me up for the whole week! I have to keep reminding myself what day it is. Sounds like you had a busy day.

    1. It was OK, thanks. Busy stops me from getting bored and lethargic.
      Focaccia is on The List!
