HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my Mum! She is 72 today... and doing great over in Australia with her partner .... I miss being able to just jump in the car and go see her.I am drawing a blank on today!
There is nothing planned, apart from getting the kids to school!
Hell.... I may have to go shopping!
I didn't go to Weight Watchers last night... I had another blasted headache... and felt ill after dinner. So... will have to wait till next week to see if I've dropped some more lard ....
I can't work on the F/Project now until I get some more material... maybe another trip to Morrinsville is in order, the batik materials at Wright's are just AMAZING. Maybe we can go this weekend? Hmmmm.... will talk to THE MAN about that!
So today I might carry on (at some stage) with the Star Quilt that I keep putting on the back burner.
ONWARD....
ABOVE: this is my neighbours house... and I have just spent the last hour over there having a coffee and a natter.... she is home with a brand new baby girl! OOOO so cute! I just adore babies! I knew she was due this month, and when I saw her home every day this week I figured she must have had her baby... so I couldn't resist popping over for a cluck session. That was nice, and now... I'm going out to wander around some shops.
Some days go fast, some slow... today is slow. I went into 'town' and bought a couple of fat quarters ... but they really are not what I want for the Frangipani Project...
It's been quiet otherwise, I just picked up the kids from school.
Now that I actually go into the school every afternoon to physically pick them up I am finally starting to feel like one of the crowd.. and other mums are talking to me... It has taken MONTHS for this to happen... it's lovely. I really love it here... and I can't see me ever wanting to leave this area.
End of Day: feeling crabby so am taking myself off for a nice long soak in the bath. That might help my mood... or not. nite nite.

ReplyDeleteI like the decoration by your fence. It matches your neighbour's roof so it takes some of that "fence look" away from the back yard.
ReplyDeleteHey, but I'm happy to just have a fence. :]
