LOSING TRACK OF TIME

 

I'm exhausted.

Some days I wake up and I have NO IDEA what freakin' day it is.

I know I have a big list of things to do, and I am slowly getting through them.  But not necessarily in the right order.

I start one thing, walk down the hallway and see something else I need to do, and do it.  Then wonder why that other job isn't already done?

Derrrr.

Yesterday I didn't get our bed made until almost 5 pm!  I took the headboard off our bed, to clean the wall and skirtings behind the bed.... so that delayed making the bed.  Then,  halfway through doing that job, I started doing something else, and so the bed didn't get made.  See?  So distractable. 

ABOVE:  Our Estate Agents gave us this lovely gift, to celebrate selling our home.  How nice is that.  Those two little blue pottery dishes for the relish's are delightful.

ABOVE: As I mentioned yesterday, I'm giving Steve and Bex the blue Leather Lounge Suite. It's already in the other lounge awaiting the weekend, when it will go over to the kid's house.

We will be left with the cream La Z Boy Suite, and the Patchwork furniture.

With that in mind... the teal/blue table runner I made for that coffee table, and the matching smaller one for the small coffee table between our lounge chairs are now not the right colour.  They do not 'go' with that furniture at all.

So they are going back into my market stash.

And I will need to make something else for the coffee table.

YAAA, something to sew!  I might even need to buy some fabric that will suit... such a shame (but not really).  As ya all know, most of my fabrics are in storage.  😖😕😂

Well... I better get up and start the day.  I wonder what I will get done today?  

- take a load over to the storage unit.

- finish the painting.

Dunno what else yet.

Ooooh, I just remembered something.  I'm going to Cambridge this evening to catch up with some friends.  Something lovely to look forward to.

11.22 am:  Well a good morning so far.

I took a load over to the storage unit.

I bought more vacuum bags.

Grocery shopping for fruit etc for this evening.

And once home, Lacy visited me for a while.

Now... I am going to tidy up the sewing room, as it's a bloody tip right now.  Boxes/stuff to wrap etc all over the place.

3.03 pm:  The batteries died again.   I'm just SO DAMN TIRED!

And my legs hurt.  I did lots of 'squats' yesterday painting the lower half of the walls.  I don't like doing bloody squats!

So, not doing much else for the remainder of the day, just making a plate up to take to my friends this evening.

9.59 pm and I'm home from Cambridge.  It was a really lovely catch up with my friends, lots of laughs and yakking.  My friend 'D' made us some Vietnamese Rice Paper Spring Rolls, and they were so delicious. I'm going out tomorrow to get the ingredients to make us some in the next few days.

I have made them before, but forgot just how lovely they are. 

And well, that's me for the day. 

Catch ya tomorrow.
