YAWN...

 

Right, first up for today I'm going to get the washing done... there's a load in the machine waiting for me to hang it on racks in the garage.

I don't feel like hanging it outside at all now days.  

Plus, my neighbour is having some house renovations, and the dust outside, right beside my clothesline, is sometimes a bit ikkk.

Then I shall get the house all spic 'n' span, JUST IN CASE we have an impromptu house inspection.  

After that, I shall stitch the new strap up for the gazebo.  I'm hoping to use it at Tamahere mostly, for hanging horizontal runners.  I'll show ya once it's in use, so ya know what I'm on about. lol

So it should be a very cruisy day ... not much on at all.

I did think about trying a new runner pattern, but I just don't need to make any more right now.  

ABOVE:  This is the runner I'm probably going to make next.  Maybe next week I'll give it a go.  What do ya think ?  I will use pretty floral fabrics.  edit:  I did not make that runner (above), it was on the 'net, and I will make my own version soon.

OK, time to go.  Catch ya later.

9.45 am:  Done the house - TICK

Washing getting dried - TICK

Facial hair obliterated - TICK

Iron all Bowl Cosy's - TICK

Double check all is ready for market - TICK

NOW... sew up extra gazebo strap.

TICK TICK TICK.

I just went into the front bedroom for some cardboard out of the wardrobe.

Walked past my poor dead ? Monstera plant.

It had once THRIVED in the front bedroom, but a few months ago I put it in the sunroom.

And it literally withered and died.  All the leaves went yellow on the edges, and the growing shoot withered up and looked like a stick.

I thought it was DEAD.  

So I put some succulents in the pot, but left the big plant in there... JUST IN CASE it revived, fully expecting it not to though.

I also put it back in the front bedroom.

Today?

ABOVE:  It is growing again!  I am beyond thrilled!  I'm so glad I didn't dig it out and throw it away.  

Today is a GOOD DAY.

I started watching a movie on Netflix yesterday, and just finished it while having a lunch break.

I knew how it would end from the VERY BEGINNING, but it was still a lovely movie.  It made me cry in a couple of places, so it gets an 'EXCELLENT' rating from me.

'What's Love Got To Do With It'... a total Chick Flick!

Now.... I'm off to carry on with something in the sewing room.

Something didn't agree with my tummy, or I'm coming down with something, cos I'm feeling quite off.

So, I dropped Stew off at the pub and came home to just relax.  Hopefully it passes quickly.

I'll go and pick Stew up later.

For now... feet up.  

And it's now 8.05 pm.  I've picked the man up and brought him home.  We are now going to settle down for a quiet night in front of the telly.

Catch ya tomorrow.
