PATCHWORK, THEN GROCERIES

No walk today.  I'm off into Hamilton instead.

Got my patchwork class at Donna's Quilt Studio.  I shall be working on my puppy blanket, then Christmas bags.


After that .... *sigh*, it's grocery shopping.  

At least it won't be so busy on a Tuesday afternoon, as opposed to the weekend!  
I'm sure I can get around that supermarket in an hour and be home in time to have an hour to chill, before picking the kids up from school.

And they can help unpack and put away the groceries too. Yaaa.

I just hope it's not pissing down with rain when I come out of the supermarket!  Seriously, the weather has been utter shit lately!   So over it.

Shouldn't really complain when you think about everyone overseas who's been affected by the Hurricanes/earthquakes and so on!  Some serious natural disasters lately. 

Right, I better get moving... it's always so busy first thing in the morning.

ONWARD...

Almost forgot, for LYNDA:


ABOVE:  Not as clear as I'd like, but you get the gist.



Feeling really BLAH ... no energy.  I hope I pick up by the time I get to patchwork, or I'm not going to be very good company.
Got my dog application in, and the lady behind the desk was very impressed with  my application?
Seems not many people  provide detailed pictures of the property, dog run, fence details etc?  Must be doing something right.
Fingers crossed I get approved.

The puppy blanket got finished, then I did a 'medium' grocery shop and got it all home and away before picking the kids up from school.

Slightly less rain today, thank goodness!

BUT, it's still bloody freezing!  It's like full on winter cold still.  NOT that I'm actually looking forward to summer of course... cos I can't stand the heat.  Can't win.

I'm thinking of taking a little blog break... probably won't blog tomorrow.  The interest is waning I think, so perhaps time to just pull back a bit.  Not much is going on around here nowdays, just everyday stuff.  

Dinner tonight is some really lovely looking Lamb Rissoles with garlic bread.  Not actually that healthy, but I am really, really tired.
Something is catching up with me I think.  Maybe a bit too much walking?

Whatever.  I'm outta here for the day.

  3. Still interested, Chris, in fact your blog is the first thing I read every day, I just don't comment very often. But sometimes a break is good. Enjoy.

  4. I'm still here ... and I too check in with your blog first thing in the morning, and usually several times a day. I'm really admiring your dedication to your walks - and the hard work is paying off Chris - your photos are showing that :) Can't wait to see which puppy will be joining your family soon :)
