SUNSHINE

 

Quite a few people had expressed concern about the new window's placement.  How I will have sun on my face, get too hot, sun fade on my fabrics etc. 

I have thought of this in depth, and this is my solution:

ABOVE:  Vertical fabric blinds, that are made with 100% sun blocking fabric.  I can have them pulled all the way to the side, to allow maximum sun/light in, or pulled across and angled one way or the other... depending on where the sun is.  I can close them completely when I want total privacy, or when we go away/out.

I can angle them so I can see out, but 'they' cannot see in.  Perfect solution.  I cannot wait for it all to happen.  It's going to make such a difference to my Crabby Quarters.

My sewing trolley is loaded, ready for Craft Group today.  I'm still working on Placemats.  I didn't realise we have a market in just two weeks time... I thought I had more time.  So now I have to get moving, so I have plenty of choice for the summer markets.

ONWARD...

2.55 pm... and I'm home from Craft Group.  I went down at around 9.45 and got stuck into making placemats.  My goal was to get at least 6 fully made today while down there.

ABOVE: I got four kitten placemats made, and two Labrador dog ones. 

And they won't be going into my market stash... because two ladies bought them immediately!

I can't even show you the dog ones as they were sold and out the door before I could get a photo... luckily I can make more of them.  NOT the kitten ones though, I only had enough of that fabric to make 4 placemats.

I hadn't even started making the Labrador ones and they were SOLD... I was like... bloody hell!  OK.  I now need to make more cat/dogs placemats.

But not today.  I'm knackered, after not sleeping well last night , or the night before, or the night before... for months!  I don't know why I'm struggling to get to sleep and stay asleep?  Most annoying.  Oh well.. that's life I suppose.

My appetite has certainly taken a massive dive since getting up to 1 mg of WEGOVY!  I have had three small pieces of almond flour 'bread' for lunch, hardly enough to make a sparrow fart, and I'm simply not hungry!  It's great.  😊  I'm not even thinking of food.  So weird, it used to be all I'd think about when I woke in the morning.

7.05 pm.   When Stew arrived home from work, we went for a walk.  I decided to take Coco with us.  Yeah.  NOT the best idea.  She did really well for the first half, then she slowed and then she started wobbling a bit, so this happened:

ABOVE: She got carried for a while.  Once we got back to the village she walked a bit more.  But I won't be taking her for our walks anymore, she simply can't do it.  Little walks around the village are still OK, but that's it. 

It was a perfect evening for a walk, fine with some crispness in the air.  

And now we are going to settle down and just relax for the evening.  

Catch ya tomorrow.
