NOT TODAY

 

I'd love to say I had a wonderful night's sleep, but I didn't.

And I have a pounding headache, almost the first one this year!

Having my naughty tooth out certainly put paid to the constant headaches.

I was going over to Cambridge for mosaics this morning, but if this headache sticks around, I won't be going anywhere.

I feel quite ill in fact.  So I might just go back to bed with some panadol on board.

ABOVE: Stew sent me these 'words' yesterday.  He knows how much I take 'words' to heart.  He wishes I didn't.  So do I.

I will try harder to just let them flow over me.

10.42 am:   I'm up and feeling better.

I've done the morning jobs and am now in the sewing room working on the last 4 smaller runners.

Being in the sewing room is where my mind runs amok sadly.

I do tend to stew over 'words'.

But gosh, I am so happy I've not done certain things that were asked of me by people in my life.  I would sure in hell regret them now if I had done what was asked.

Some people like to use you, take what they can and then gaslight you, walk away and so on.  I feel lucky that I can see most people's true character traits early on.  Saves me having those regrets later on.

Still stewing on things, but moving on to better days.

I have almost totally run out of black thread!  So a trip to Spotlight is high on the list of things to do next.

USELESS INFORMATION INCOMING:

Usually I have 4 pillows and three cushions on our bed during the day.  At night I take all of them off, and replace them with the two pillows we actually USE to rest our heads on.

During the day, the pillows we actually USE are kept in a spare bedroom's wardrobe.

In our new home, there simply won't be room to store them in a 'spare' wardrobe, cos we won't have any spare wardrobe.  (sigh)

So I decided to take two of the 'day pillows' off the bed, and put our night time, USE pillows back on the bed full time.

Only, they ain't pretty pillows.  So I decided to make a 'cover/case' for them.

ABOVE: The front.

ABOVE: The back. Supper easy to chuck them in there and then on the bed.  

Problem solved, and the two other pillows are now on the spare single bed, which we are taking with us and will use for visitors.  

Mike and Joyce, fancy single beds when ya visit?  

Only joking, I'm probably going to get a sofa bed for the lounge, that you can use.

Stew arrived home early, so we sat and yakked.  And now we are going to sell our trundler bed and get a bed settee for the second bedroom.  AND our big dining suite is going too.

I'm going to have fun shopping for a small dining suite ... I bet there's HEAPS to choose from!  I've not had a new dining suite since we bought our last one, way back in the 90's!

So a friend of Steve and Bex's was at their place tonight, and I got yakking to her.  I know her fairly well as she did markets with Bex for a while.

Anyway, I digress.  She is moving and expressed an interest in our dining suite when I said I was selling it.

So I messaged Stew and suggested we gift it to her?  He said why not.  So now R has a new to her dining suite.

Yaaa, one less thing for me to try and sell.

The trundler bed went really fast on Marketplace, and is being picked up tomorrow night.

I hope I don't get carried away and we end up with NO furniture!

Just home from the pub, where I spent a nice hour or so with the regular Thursday night crowd.

I'm going to chill out now, so catch ya tomorrow.
