Category days of the week

Well here we are at the 2nd of January and it’s time to go back to work. I feel strangely calm about the whole thing. Anyway, that’s boring talk. What happened yesterday? I sewed most of the afternoon. Then my Dad popped over to help me move my dining table into the music room where […]

I have spent the morning as I mean to continue the rest of 2013 – catching up with a friend in person! We worked out we hadn’t done this for the whole of 2012 and we live in the same town. I need to do much better this year with the whole work-life balance situation. […]

Last year I did a post of my resolutions for 2012. I don’t think I’ll do that this year. Things seem different. This time last year I was about to start a beautiful month of holidays including 10 days in Tasmania which were wonderful. This year I’m going back to work on Wednesday. Last year […]

This morning saw me spending an extraordinary amount of money on new underwear. It was time and thank goodness for Boxing Day Sales. Then a coffee stop and a Spotlight stop where I bought some patchwork material and a length of dark green material that I will do something with. And then…..Ta DAAAA…the highlight of […]

I had every good intention to do work from today onwards.

Well I didn’t exactly have the Boxing Day Blues but I wasn’t up to much today. I did manage to get to Spotlight first thing and pick up some specials in the fabric department. It was really hot though and their aircon hadn’t really kicked in so I was feeling a little seedy by the […]

Christmas is done and dusted for another year. I got lots of lovely green gifts including a complete set of bathroom towels etc, a cute green purse, a green spotty mug, some green tea and new cushions for my lounge. Non green gifts included a scratchie ( I did not win anything), pins and a […]

I’m thinking it would be wonderful to have a Sunday where I mooched around the house in my pyjamas and do not much at all. Perhaps I would read a work of fiction or watch a film. Perhaps I would do some cooking or go outside into my much neglected garden. Perhaps I would have […]

It’s been my favourite kind of Saturday and the kind of Saturday that I haven’t had in a long long time. I slept in until 8. Got up just before 9 and managed to be showered and dressed in time for my dear mum to pick me up at 9:15. We nipped downtown for a […]
