JUST A LAZY SUNDAY

 

I had to stop and check my phone to see what day it was!  With Stew home every day, it's buggered up me timelines.

I simply have nothing to judge what day it is... cos they are all the same.

Shit, is that what it's like when ya both 'retire'?

I think Stew needs to go back to work for a bit longer... I'm not ready for this πŸ˜‚.  

My plans for today are to sleep in, then get back into C.Q. and get another 2-3 Kiwiana Braid Runners made before next weekends market.

I'm a bit nervous about that one, as Stew won't be able to help me with the set up at all.  Lacy is going to be helping me, and possibly Bex too.

But, it is still going to be a bit stressful, cos I'm a worrier, and get me tits in a knot really easily. πŸ˜–

And that reminds me... I need to make a few more little straps for the gazebo.  I best do them first thing today, so I don't keep procrastinating about making them.

ONWARD...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY  to Bex .... hope to see ya later. 

11.30 am.  Did I say a LAZY Sunday was ahead?

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…πŸ˜†

Yeah right.

What with looking after the man, making a second Kiwiana Runner top, and making a BIG batch of scones for lunch, I've been BUSY.

Steve, Bex and their kids are coming for lunch.

No one else could come... it was kinda short notice.

I'm taking a moment to sit still, then I will be getting said scones out of the oven.

We have 'plain' cheese scones, to be accompanied by jam and cream, and my new favourite, Cheese/Bacon and Onion scone scrolls.

Stew loves them.

Any left overs can go in the freezer for another day.  Excellent idea, cos I've made quite a few.  One is going to be enough for anyone!

They are huge.

ABOVE: Dante arrived wearing his knock off, cheap as 'crocs'.  He said they were too small for him now... so...

ABOVE: I nicked them off  him!  I will wear them in C.Q., and take them off when I leave the garage, that way I'm not traipsing threads and fluff all through the house any more.

Dante will get new, bigger ones as soon as his parents can be arsed taking him to the shops.

ABOVE:  DOGSTARS, I was heading off to have a nap when your comment came through!

So there are the scones!


ABOVE: Archer asked me how many scones he could have?  I said (tongue in cheek), he could have 5!

He said no, he'd only have 4.

In the end he had 1 huge savoury scroll and 2 scones!

I could only eat one savoury scroll.  They were very filling.

And went down very well with everyone.  Except Lily, she was only interested in the cream, and pieces of bacon out of the scrolls.  πŸ˜‹ 

ABOVE:  A particularly nice photo of Steve today.

Coco, getting her belly rubs, which she demands from anyone who crosses our threshold.

ABOVE:  The closest I got to a photo of Bex today, on her birthday!  Whoops, not good enough, must do better next time.

And that's a rap on lunch.  NOW I'm off to have a nap.  

ABOVE:  I'm happy to say I did get an hour's nap.  So did Coco.

Isn't she so cute.

After my nap, I went down to my local petrol station, to fill up me car.


ABOVE:  Petrol is now over $3 a litre.  Who can we thank for THAT I wonder?

A ginger faced, maniacal, egotistical, despot who is hell bent on causing World War Three, that's who.

It just makes me so angry when I think about him.

And I try NOT to think about him too much, cos there is NOTHING I can do about it.

So, I've been sewing up a storm since about 4 pm, and I'm happy with my results for the day.

Now though, I'm done for the day.  

Catch ya tomorrow.

    Just sent you an Easter pattern idea. Happy birthday Bex. I have had someone with a birthday every day last week. Must have been chilly 9 months before. Lacy will be a great help at the market. Not as cuddly as Stew but she's shown she's a hard worker. You are so lucky. Kj

    Yep he's a piece of shit. Doesn't realise the worldwide consequences of his actions🀬

  13. He doesn't care about the world or even the United States. He only cares about himself and his crooked schemes to enrich himself, and distract from the darn files that prove he is the worlds biggest Pedo just like his bestie Jeffrey.

  15. Holy cow I just looked up the conversion and that is over 2x what we are paying per gallon. I paid just under $5 per gallon the last time I got gas. If we could get rid of him believe me we would. Hopefully he can get kicked out soon, he's absolutely a horrible person.

    I am so sorry that the "leader" of my country is creating such havoc everywhere. I never voted for him, and don't understand how so many people were convinced that he would be good for the country. But come November, things will change for the better. Not the best, but better. That will come at the next presidential election. -Manerva
