WALK, SEWING, POOL...

 

Morning you observant buggers!

No one has commented on 'ONWARD' and 'NITE NITE' disappearing!

I changed for the New Year to 'GOOD MORNING' and 'BEDTIME'.  Did anyone notice?

It's been a full week!

Moving on... I finished # 59 Braid Runner lst night.

ABOVE:  The layout for this one took me hours... because it was so hard to match up the colours.  But ... it's come out beautifully.

Believe me when I say these runners look even better in person.  This one would work so well in my family room, but I simply don't need it.  So, reluctantly it's going to market.

Our first market of 2024 is in 13 days, and I'm really looking forward to it.  I miss the markets so much.  It's going to suck over winter, when we go down to only one a month.  But it is what it is.

Back to today, I am hoping it's cool enough this morning for a lake or mall walk.  After that, home to sew probably.

And definitely swimming at some point.

BACK LATER...

Well, after waking at our usual damn early stupid o'clock, Stew and I just dozed on and off until... would you believe 9.40 am!

Yep, you can officially call that a sleep in.

Once up, we decided a walk was not on the cards, as it was too hot.

So I did this:

ABOVE: Stew mentioned the other day how he'd like some meatloaf.  So, I got all the necessary shit together...

ABOVE:  And I made meat loaf(s).  Being the sort of person I am, of course I made enough to feed a small army.

But ... we can freeze a lot of it for down the line.

While it was cooking, I went into the sewing room and started work on the next runner.

Meanwhile, his nibs vacummed the house, then headed out into the garden to do some weeding etc.

It's lunchtime now, so he will be in soon for... meatloaf I presume. 😂😊😋

And I am gunna have some crackers/cheese and relish, then lie in the sun, do some swimming and just relax for a while.

6 pm:  Gosh, another perfect day here.  The sun came out this afternoon and I lay in the sun, swam in the pool, and watched the kids swim and have lots of fun.  

Dinner was a tiny piece of meatloaf for me, and Stew had a bigger piece.  So YUM!  I have put most of it in the freezer for later.  It is even nicer after it's been in the freezer, which is weird, but true.

After dinner the kids came back for another swim.  Bex is really feeling uncomfortable now, and nesting is in full swing.

After they left, I worked on my jigsaw for a while, and now it's nearly...
