Last night I finally got the runner I'd been working on all day finished.
And I utterly LOVE IT!
ABOVE: There WAS going to be a Fat Bottomed Bloke, but he just didn't look right. So he became a she. Today I shall start work on the 2nd in this series. There's 4 altogether.
Later on I will be making some marshmallow and fruit kebabs for Card Night.
Last time they went down really well... so I shall just repeat that. I will have to pop out and get more marshmallows... we like, ATE them all. 😂😋😉
And that's me for now. It's going to be a lovely day.
Gosh! I forgot to update on Steve last night.
His procedure didn't get done for hours once he was at the hospital.
He went in at 1 pm but didn't get it done till after 4 pm.
At least it WAS done. Some people have had to wait over a year for a colonoscopy. Steve 'only' had to wait about 5 months.
All looked at expected. Pancolitis, AND a distinct possibility of Crohns Disease too. As he's now on new medication specifically for Crohns Disease, he may see a reduction in his symptoms in the next couple of months. I sure hope so!
He can get mighty miserable when he's having a flare up. This latest flare up has lasted a long time already.
ABOVE: Well I finally did it. I started wearing two pairs of socks to keep me feet warm. And it works! Stew does it often, but I never did till a couple of weeks ago. Highly recommend.
ABOVE: I thought about doing this overnight, and first thing this morning I chopped the next large runner in half.Each will only have two girls on it. I'm trying to give people options, not everyone has a really big coffee table or dining table eh?
1 pm: Time for a break. It's taken me all morning to get 4 ladies cut out and ready for stitching.
ABOVE: And looking at it now... I really don't like that orange towel. It's gotta go!
1.55 pm: I go out to the supermarket. Get my shit. Come home. Unpack. Go to check my phone.
NO PHONE in my handbag!
I'm like ... OK I must have left it either in the car or the sewing room.
So I go hunting for it. Can't find it anywhere.
PANIC STATIONS.
OMG where is it?
I get Bex to phone me, hoping it's somewhere in the house, and not long lost at the supermarket, though I don't remember using it in the supermarket. If fact, I know I didn't.
I hear it ringing... oh thank god.
Guess where it was?
On the bonnet of my car. And it had been there all the while I was driving to the shop, and all the way back without falling off or being stolen in the carpark! I also drove over 4 speed humps and that bloody phone stayed on the hood of me car!
Kudos to my phone. She's a keeper!
That feeling of utter dread though, when you can't find your phone and think it's gone forever.
I need to eat something. Lunch ... and all that.
Just made the fruit/marshmallow kebabs:
ABOVE: And before you ask: Marshmallows, Dried Apricot, Grapes, pineapple pieces, mandarin segments, Kiwifruit, and all topped off with a Chocolate Marshmallow Fish.
BOOM.
They are just lovely. And fun.
Next time I think I will be doing a club sandwich, in me Tupperware Jel Ring.
